I once got in a really weird argument with a redditor who I simply suggested to that cultured meats will likely never scale up. I was so fascinated with how anxious the redditor seemed as they accused me of being a big Ag shill, then a VEGAN, then a Luddite who was try to dissuade the public. That the only problem is public perception.

I didn't even say it was going to be unhealthy if though it is going to be goo used to make burgers and chicken nuggets. I just said it's not going to happen because the laws of physics as detailed in a really good article below. And if anybody was insane enough to put billions into the kind of facilities you would need to mass produce this food then you are talking about $17 chicken nuggets that wouldn't even be vegan.

Not only that but the significant energy required for the clean room environments to grow these cells could make it even more carbon intensive then even beef agriculture.

They just started babbling that people's insane demand for meat dictates no other solution can be found. But people increasingly don't want slop like burgers or nuggets, carnivores want their steak medium done rare and basic bitch rack of lamb on easter. Why does the customer always have to be right? So what people want meat, they also want sport cars and mcmansions. People are shits and giving a select minority of them almost everything they could want is destroying this planet.
