Real Beef but not from a Cow.

Scientists have produced beef in a laboratory from stem cells taken from a cow. They had produced enough to make a beefburger and were going to taste it today. The scientists seemed to think that artificially produced meat would be the way ahead if we want to still eat meat. Would you eat it ?

No it's still flesh so I wouldn't however I would happily serve it to family meat eaters as less cruel than what they currently eat.

Re: Real Beef but not from a Cow.

No way would I eat it!!

Re: Real Beef but not from a Cow.

To drift from the topic slightly, I don't very often eat burgers but when I do I quite like the Birds Eye ones.

I don't either Alan and have never ever been into a McDonalds.

Re: Real Beef but not from a Cow.

I saw this on the news this morning and no I don't fancy it either - I want PROPER meat.

And while we're on the subject, I too have never been inside a McDonalds, Burger King or KFC.

I don't know what makes burgers so popular. There are lots of far nicer foods to eat! I would definitely not knowingly eat the new burgers.
