I read a SF story about this decades ago.
Guess what the most popular lab grown meat was?
It wasn’t chicken or beef.
“Heard women complain that Freeper males have breasts on their minds all day.”
When I’ve heard women say “men are only interested in one thing”, I think to myself: what woman wants a man who isn’t interested in one thing.
Really. You know what they call men who aren’t interested in one thing: gay.
Not my throat.
No fake food at our house. Wouldn’t feed that bleep to my cat and she wouldn’t eat it.
LONG PORK!...................
Good points.
If more and more turn out to be gay it could be like a science fiction story referenced by author Joe Haldeman (The Forever War) at a convention in 1978. “So if it were a strictly gay male independent space colony satellite it would die out in one generation.”
Earth would be that way if men weren’t interested in women any more.
Wish I had my grandfather’s farm....with inside plumbing though.
I don’t care if they can price them at 17 cents each....
DO NOT WANT!!!!
Picture of lab grown chicken on plate....
Finally something to ——almost-——make a plate of spongy white tofu with a side of arugula and field greens salad look almost edible.

The price for fake chicken is going down because no one wants to buy or eat that garbage. It has nothing to do with the rising price of real meat.
“The Food of the Gods”, by Arthur C. Clarke.
This lab-grown chicken business made me think of Chicken Little in Pohl & Kornbluth’s novel “The Space Merchants”.
This is his, 'You kids! Get off my FOOD!' Face.
Sam’s Club is selling whole rotisserie-cooked chickens that weight 4+ pounds after cooking for $4.98 ... perfectly cooked, only lightly brined so not over-salty like most rotisserie chickens ...

Those replacement human ears that they grow on the backs of lab rats?
*SMIRK*
See Post #34.
Can girls play, too? ;)
Beau already asked me what I want for Christmas. Without hesitation I said, ‘A pair of hogs!’ :)
Proving once again that the lowly CHICKEN is probably God’s Best Critter Invention.
If they gave dairy milk, they’d be golden! ;)
Tofu is at least what it is, not pretending to be anything else. I’d take real tofu any day over fake chicken.
Those little white cubes cooked in a tasty veggie soup are not all that bad for the occasional quick meal.
tastes like chicken, like chicken...
