    It would be funny if we all assumed it was a scam, but Smokie Mo's was spinning up a lab-grown meat division and actually needed biotech experts.

      Is this a good thing? I don't know anything and I'm too exhausted to research it. My prejudice is that it should be good because it offers an alternative to animal agriculture but I'm sure there's a catch.

        I think it's good, it's just a question of whether we can do it at scale without using so much electricity that it renders it somehow worse than animal agriculture currently is. In terms of ethics lab grown meat is equivalent to a plant or bacteria.

          Long term assuming we can make the switch to renewables or at least nuclear energy, the energy concern stops being as much of an issue?
