So far Florida seems to be a good shooter when it comes to its own foot. Make Diznee illegal, abortion illegal, abortion pill, tofu meat. What's next? Smoothies?
Let's make an allegory to porn and prostitution that George Carlin made some years back... Selling is legal, fucking is legal, do why can't selling fucking also be legal?
Banana is legal, orange is legal, so why can't a smoothie be legal? The answer is "Florida!"
This is about lab-grown meat.
One thing we probably should ban is headlines because then people would actually have to read the article.
I sad tofu meat because that's the kind of fake meat I like. There's also the kind where they make sort of stringy material and glued together and then the version where they get a plant or other scaffolding material and fill it with animal clone cells, that's the kind you're talking about here. Cloned cells are fair game to me but not my thing because they are probably bad for you just like a murdered chicken in a sandwich is.
The stringy material is probably Seitan (or vital wheat gluten). It's purely plant based and made from protein rich flour. It has the highest content of protein in plantbased meat replacements (close and above than real meat) but is usually low in the amino acid lysine, opposed to soy-based replacement which contain all 9 essential amino acids in sufficient amounts.
More recently, mycelium based proteins edged seitan out, and they have a better texture, in my opinion.
Plus it doesn't sit in your stomach like a bag of rocks!
That's good to know. I usually just have beans but if I want to eat something that feels like meat I use that. Mushrooms are good too in the feels like meat but different department.
