Why not? The alternative could be cheaper, more sustainable, more accessible
It may even taste better. Why not figure out an alternative?

Natural ingredients and taste verses manufactured taste.

I had a bite of a Beyond Burger recently. It was tasty and sadly better cooked

I've had it, it was far too crumbly and had a weird after taste. Apparently they

Nothing will taste like the real thing unless there is animal fat in it.

I've thought that too, but there are too many reviews that contradict

It doesn't need the fat itself. I read something a while back on

And the ingredients will cause cancer just like beef, too.

This is great for health and the environment. Hopefully it will be cost effective soon.

Ill try it but I don’t think they’ll ever fully be able to replicate it

If it is close, I'll never go back. I take no pride in eating meat so if an alternative comes up

Ground meat should be possible, but solid meats like steak, pork chops, brisket

I take great pride in eating beef. If God didn't want us to eat meat, why did he make cows out of steak?

That’s ok, more meat for me to eat!

No pride in eating meat? What does that mean?

Umm he was right. You are idd to care so much about eating meat

LOL.

Why not?

I asked you why first. You tell me why, and then I’ll tell you why not.

1. To have better health options. 2. Better environment. 3. Economics duh. 4. Less death.

Better environment? With all those live cows producing methane? Don't you care about global warming?

You think people would still have as much cattle? That's odd.

Worldwide cattle populations would plummet

I take pride in eating beef. My cardiologist is trying to humble me, though.

I think they could get close on flavor, but not texture.

Ok fine leave the hamburger on the cow, just give me the steak.

Better than a McDonalds burger?

This should be a good bridge until we can grow meat without killing live animals
ebv
1/13/19 2:34pm
as opposed to killing dead animals? 🙂

Fair, I really just wanted to emphasize that that process grows live tissue.

I'm just wondering what else we're supposed to do with them.
