I just finished reading an update on the progress of lab produced beef.  I had heard about it some time ago, but now, according to the "creator", it's becoming almost cost effective.  And, of course, it is so much better for a wide variety of reasons:  animal welfare, environment, you name it.  It even tastes as good as real meat, according to the promoters.  It makes me feel good that we'll all soon be replaced by a group of people in white lab coats.  The "creator" says something about being able to make enough "meat" for 20,000 people in half a swimming pool.  I just hope nobody pees in the pool.  Instead of country of origin labeling, I suppose in the future we'll look for "lab of origin" stickers on our ribeyes.  I did find it somewhat amusing that critics describe the meat as "frankenburgers."  For some reason, I just can't get the image of Young Frankenstein actors Gene Wilder and Marty Feldman cranking out lab produced hot dogs on a conveyor belt.  What hump?

Well at least we won't have to worry about hybrid vigor, dehorning, defects, cattle forums, property rights!
