Your Turn
Today in London, the first completely lab created hamburger will be served to people. It was made from the stem cells of cows in a lab. Is this something you would eat? PETA fully supports it because there is no animal cruelty.

Weird, but I don't think I could. Sounds too freaky.
ReplyDeleteFuck no I wouldn't eat that. I like real cows. Bet the veggies are GM. I'll pass.
ReplyDeleteGood idea for famine ridden countries though.
Perhaps they should use stem cell research for more important things like creating cures for Parkinson's and Alzheimer's IMO.
ReplyDelete@MontanaMarriott.....
Delete+10000.
I couldn't agree more!
Word. Spinal injuries... No, instead we're growing a fucking hamburger.
DeleteI'm stunned that that's even a question. I'm double-stunned that someone's already posted that they wouldn't?
ReplyDelete"Freaky"???? Renoblondee, have you ever eaten a hot dog? A Twinkie?
Beef grown in a lab sounds a hell of a lot less freaky than the crap people eat from day to day anyway.
Eww. Sounds like a recipe for birth defects and all kinds of fuckery down the road.
ReplyDeleteLmao true
DeleteNem, i really enjoy your usage if the word fuckery. And u prob right.
DeleteToday's answer is no, I would not eat it.
ReplyDeleteAsk me again in 10 yrs when it's the norm.
+1
DeleteI think this is exciting and interesting. Buuut, I'll let someone else have that first bite.
ReplyDeletei find it hilarious people will be repelled by this notion, but will not think twice about eating any takeaway burger, hotdog or food. watch fast food nation.
ReplyDeleteI'm vegan for a reason, and even if meat were ethical, wouldn't. *gag*
the japanese worked out how to make human effluent edible by removing all bacteria then making it into jerky.
I am a new vegetarian...I will pass and stick to the convictions that led me to drop meat from my diet.
ReplyDeleteHigh five Audrey!
DeleteOh yay the vegan bunch is here to meat shame us #saidnooneever
ReplyDeleteITA, @MontanaMarriott.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't. It sounds good in theory, but what about reality?
Say no to GMOs
ReplyDelete@Jonathon. I have my opinion, you have yours. Why you gotta call me out? Jesus.
ReplyDelete@Renoblondee, slow day at the comic book store.

ReplyDeleteAmen hag.
DeleteI never plus 1, but @Joella, you are my first.
ReplyDelete@Seven LOL!
We're getting closer and closer to Margaret Atwood's Oryx and Crake!
ReplyDeleteActually I think this is probably healthier than the meat that is one the market except for organic grass fed. I live with carnivores, so at least until the kid is out of the house, I get my meat from a local farm. Sure I have to buy quantity - at least 1/4 cow, but it comes out far far cheaper than in the market
I LOVE Oryx and Crake! Scott Campbell does the narration on the audiobook and it's mesmerizing.
DeleteThis is the passage about Chickie Nobs.
"It's sort of like a chicken hookworm," said Crake.
"No need for added growth hormones," said the woman, "the high growth rate's built in. You get chicken breasts in two weeks-- that's a three-week improvement on the most efficient low-light, high-density chicken farming operation so far devised. And the animal-welfare freaks won't be able to say a word, because this thing feels no pain."
"Those kids are going to clean up," said Crake after they'd left. The students at Watson-Crick got half the royalties from anything they invented there. Crake said it was a fierce incentive. "ChickieNobs, they're thinking of calling the stuff."
"Are they on the market yet?" asked Jimmy weakly. He couldn't see eating a ChickieNob. It would be like eating a large wart. But as with the tit implants-- the good ones-- maybe he wouldn't be able to tell the difference.
Thanks ladies. I know what I'll be asking my hubby to being home from the bookshop today.
Delete@msgirl...
DeleteLoved that one. Almost didn't give it a chance bcuz I hated "A Handmaids Tale" so much.
No meat shame. My husband eats meat. I cook it for him. However, we only eat ethical free range meat and eggs is all. Just commenting, as were others, that the icky bits, like anuses and eyelashes that go into hotdogs and meat pies can't be any grosser than ethical, lab created moo cow!
ReplyDelete*he, not we.
DeleteNot at that price!
ReplyDeleteHey, OT: do Americans have sausage rolls? My hubby loves em, and they're at every kid's b'day party - they're our item filled w mystery meat (Americans have hot dogs). Also dim sims, dubious bits if nondescript meat and grissle
ReplyDelete@Rach Maybe are they equivalent to Polska Kielbasa? Or are they little? What's the shape of them?
ReplyDeleteIt's a mixture of meat, veggies in a pastry roll.
ReplyDeleteKolaches! We can't live without 'em here in Texas
DeleteSo do they just recreate the flesh of the animal? Can they create certain cuts? I'm fascinated now!
ReplyDeleteI was on the fence until PETA gave their stamp of approval. I'm morally obligated to contradict them, no matter what.
ReplyDeleteNope, I don't think we do. We do have pigs in a blanket though, which is lil dogs wrapped in pastry. That's prob similar as they're popular at parties too.
ReplyDeleteSo THAT's what a pig in blanket is! My hubby has a love affair w bacon. He lurves it.
DeleteHa ha@Nom. They give us a bad name!
ReplyDeletePeta is annoying and has been called out for euthanizing animals, so they are not my moral compass. If i didnt know where this burger came from, prob eat it and not know difference. I dont people are being hypocritcal eating hot dogs twinkies and sausage, but not this. Its because they have eaten it before with no problems. This test tube meat is an unknown. And im not a vegan, but dont eat any of stuff mentioned or loaded with chemicals. Try not to anyway.
ReplyDeleteYeah, that whole animal shelter then killing all the animals thing really negates anything PETA have to say.
Deletecreepy
ReplyDeleteGiven that I ate a chocolate covered scorpion last week, I'm not going to pretend I'm much of a food snob. If it doesn't contain fermented mushrooms (nasty, nasty, nasty) or too many bell peppers, I'll usually give it a try.
ReplyDeleteSo, yes, I would eat it. And hopefully not be turned into a zombie by it.
Oh, and I;d like to point out to the people who are offended that they're not using these research dollars to find a cure for Parkinson's or whatever, that people starving around the world might not agree with your priorities.
ReplyDeleteWhen I heard this on the news this morning I thought "of course, I would totally eat it", but reading that peta supports it, I have changed my mind. I don't want to do anything supported by those douches on the pot ("peta" means "joint" in Spanish).
ReplyDeleteI am sure I would, I have eaten my share of processed food.
ReplyDeleteaside from the fact that i have absolutely no respect for peta, ewww no.
ReplyDeletePookie I was going to say the exact same thing - ewwww
ReplyDeleteAnd no, I don't eat fast food, twinkies or anything else like that..
Nope nope nope
ReplyDeleteI saw a show called how its made, and they showed how hot dogs were made. I dont eat them anyway, but if i did, i would never eat them again. Completely DISGUSTING!!
ReplyDelete@seven, thanks for posting that link.
ReplyDeleteIf you have to put that much butter on a burger it probably doesn't taste right.
I'm afraid it might harm the millions of bacteria living in my digestive system. They are living creatures and deserve ethical treatment too.
ReplyDelete@ Rach....We have Sausage Rolls here in Canada. My daughter who lives in California used to get cravings for them....but they aren't an American food item. Here in Canada they are made with pastry and usually contain spicy pork or beef sausage. You can get them with veggie stuffing at a few places.
ReplyDeleteThey said aspartame and GMO corn were safe too. I'll pass until all the research come in.
ReplyDeleteYeah, if PETA supports it I'm going to have to say no on principle.
ReplyDeleteOne step closer to Soylent Green! No I wouldn't, I'm trying to cut GMO out of my diet. Why do you think there is so much food intolerance now. Cause they keep f*&king with it in a lab.
ReplyDeleteMan, fuck PeTA.
ReplyDeleteI'm sick of legitimate news organizations going to that den of hypocrisy and interviewing them as if they actually matter in the debate.
That's like asking the KKK for its views on the latest Israel-Palestine talks.
Maybe. I am not a big fan of hamburgers, though. The concept does not bother me, however.
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking it's one step away from Zombies eating,BRAINNNNNSSSSSS!
ReplyDeleteBut if they can make me instant bacon I'll eat it and damn the consequences.
No, because I've been a vegetarian forever and am already used to plant-based "meats" and don't really miss the real thing at all. The thought of eating stem cell burgers kind of grosses me out. When they come up with stem cell bacon, call me.
