My biggest concern about artificial meat is what it will do to ranch lands which today feed cattle. For one, ranchers will go out of business, and two, grazing animals are actually critical to keeping grasslands healthy. If there is no one raising grazing animals, it could lead to more desertification of grasslands.

Democrats love aborted baby cells for genetic research. Democrats hate plant based genetic research. Frankenstein human body parts good for humans. Frankenstein plants parts not good for for plants. Western Europe is falling by the wayside of human history. Western Europe is for tourist and is a museum of long ago history and not much more.

Why do tree hugging organic earthy crunchy liberals need to eat fake meat? I thought veggies were "good" for you?

I can hardly imagine anything more unnatural than a chemically engineered, DNA modified slab of tofu. How do the "organic" au naturel granola types square this Frankenburger with their liberal philosophy?

The burger contains wheat gluten and a big dose of sodium.

Maybe they can add peanut protein for people with nut allergies.

Sounds like “GREENBEEFOS” from the old Si-Fi story THE ULTIMATE CATALYST.

Does anybody remember Olestra? It gave people violent, greasy flatulence. These days it’s being marketed as an industrial lubricant and paint additive.

I’ve had the “Impossible Burger” (against the recommendation of my server). It did indeed taste like beef, but the texture was like breaddy, mushy meatloaf.

Not very good. NOT the equivalent to a real burger.

I should of followed the server’s recommendation.

If you want to add that "natural gristle" facet to this phony-burger, and eat it like a steak, maybe you can just add a big clump of hardened Vaseline...

Fake meat sounds OK.

Fake blood for the fake meat sounds repulsive.

Serve it to liberals and illegals. See who leaves the country the fastest.

Why not put beet-juice on shit and call it “the new meat”?

U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved the Impossible Burger, an all-veggie burger that "bleeds" and sizzles just like meat.

Ive never understood this. If one is a vegetarian, why do you want to eat something that reminds you of actual meat? Wouldn't this be like making a soy burger that tastes just like roasted humans? Who wants that?

If you read up on wheat, you’ll find out that today’s strains, which were hybridized extensively are the cause of the obesity and diabetes outbreaks world-wide. The hybridization also increased yields something like 5-fold, which is why starvation is a thing of the past (except when food is intentionally withheld from people for political reasons).

So we now have way more wheat, but our bodies get confused due to the change in its composition (we never had a chance to adapt to it)...so we’re less healthy, much less healthy. And while hybridization is not GMO...it might as well be, based on what our bodies are wired for.

...so no thanks, I’ll stick with fat-loaded real beef.
