Why is it wrong?
If we can make something with all the properties of meat with a lower cost and carbon footprint and without cruelty to animals that sounds like a win to me.
They think food science has hit the end goal and we know everything about our body and we know everything there is to know about food science and this drink has everything the body needs, and nothing else and nothing more ever to know or need. Otherwise they wouldn't use the word "complete" and actually say "everything your body needs".
The planet stays the same size throughout time, but the human race doesn’t, therefore not everything remains sustainable
I'm not particularly a fan of highly processed goods, but that's because they tend to be built to be addictive.
Western meat consumption with current population levels isn't sustainable though. So either we (collectively) eat less, or we find an alternative.
It'd be interesting to see if lab grown is environmentally less damaging than intensive farming.
There is no ambiguity in their statement. It is nutritionally complete and everything your body needs.
There's lots of people in the world who think that processed automatically means worse and that is not true. Reclaimed salt is processed but it is still only NaCl and yet millions of people think that there must be at least 2 versions of NaCl when there isn't.
There are dozens of people who don't want chemicals in their food and then get upset when they get laughed at for putting salt and vinegar on their chips. American BBQ groups are particularly hard work. They complain that "chemicals" leech out of aluminium dishes and grills but then cook the food with heated smoke that is absolutely full of a variety of compounds, some of which are known to not be not at all healthy and in some cases carcinogenic.
And there's that lovely USA survey were a significant minority wanted to ban DNA from food...
I’m so bored I might as well be listening to Pink Floyd
Equally, pure NaCl table salt is easy to make in a lab and perfectly safe.
A lot of "manufactured" food is garbage, but that's because the people in charge of making it decided to make it garbage in the name of commerce, not just because it's manufactured.
I'm 100% in favour of a steak or bacon sandwich that doesn't involve the killing of an animal.
Louise Brown was lab grown too.
