The best of both worlds: y'all can continue to eat meat, but without
any animal suffering. Win-win.

Umm, No. Just NO. I'd rather be a vegetarian if it ever came to that.

I'd like to see them match a decent scotch fillet... 'meatballs'
(which looked disgusting, BTW) is no substitute.

They don't have to suffer at all, just because they are raised for
meat. But yes, industrial scale production is generally speaking,
cruel. It doesnt /have/ to be cruel, but consumers shortsightedly want
the cheapest possible price.

It's a work in progress. They'd have to pass a blind tasting comparison
with the real thing in a couple of years. You'd think meatballs will be
the first meat product they'll get right.

This test tube meat will definitely have to compete on price a well as
flavour. But you'd think they can achieve that. Not having to deal
with live animals must be a lot cheaper.
