£250,000 hamburger: First test tube-grown beef will be served in London
 
Quote:

The artificial burger will be cooked and served for the first time this week
It cost in the region of £250,000 to produce the prototype
The 5oz beef burger is grown from the stem cells of one cow
Creator Professor Mark Post believes the development could help solve problems in the meat industry

The world?s first test-tube burger will be served in London next week. It is made from meat grown in a laboratory, rather than cattle raised in pastures.

And its developers hope it will show how the soaring global demand for protein can be met without the need for vast herds of cattle.

The 5oz ?Frankenburger?, which cost £250,000 to produce, is made from 3,000 tiny strips of meat grown from the stem cells of a cow.

The raw meat is said to be grey with a slippery texture similar to squid or scallop.

Unfortunately it's an amazing idea that will get squashed to death because people will be too afraid to eat it.

I'd fucking love to eat a burger next to a cow who gave the cells to make the fake meat.

I would rather die than eat this laboratory shit :throwup

The danger with things like this is the long term effects if something goes wrong, especially if this stuff becomes commonplace.

BSE takes quite some time to manifest itself and has sometimes escaped detection using BSE detection methods. What if some small kink in the molecular structure of this lab grown meat wasn't discovered for 25 or 30 years ? By then millions of people could be left with problems.

I'll stick to real beef.

Right.

Same with all the GMO shit. They play with nature and we all will get burnt for their stupid experiments.

I want to eat natural food. Fuck this!

If tv has taught me anything, is that ingesting things out of a test tube will give me awesome super powers.

HomerSimpson 07-31-2013 04:13 AM

most of the burgers taste like plastic anyway...
so nobody will notice the difference...

'The raw meat is said to be grey with a slippery texture similar to squid or scallop' !! Are you kidding me?
Not a fucking chance would that go anywhere near my mouth. Arse yes, mouth no.

I'm sure they'd eat it.

Choopa_Pardo 07-31-2013 07:24 AM

I like my beef grown on a cow, personally.

I think I'd rather eat the raw squid that it resembles.
