Yes, but why become a vegetarian?
Me? I'm a member of PETA. .....people eating tasty animals.
This would be a good reason why:
how does one not embed a video??
Sorry, not embedding it here. Young eyes might be around. It's the plain truth of the animal industries.
Just look for Earthlings on youtube.
No way, I prefer to eat natural meats that from animal.
I was suffered with GI problems for 2 weeks and getting improve right now so no way that I will eat this shit that come out from nasty lab, that enough.
Healthly food is important key!
I would do more meat free meals except my family would protest. I do go more vegetarian and whole grains and whole foods, and only do meat for the most part for the rest of family. Most packages of meat are for 4 people as opposed to 5 people, so it works out.
Yeah, but you can't beat a nice, thick succulent steak.
I have the feeling it will be fed to the poor and hungry than to us. And I think that's a good start. Sensible people may think, "How dare you experiment on the poor!" but the truth is that they'd be HAPPY to be nourished even if it means "fake."
Any number of reasons, though I only choose not to eat pig-based products due to their levels of cognition.
Just paste the link to YouTube and the forums will turn it into an embedding.
Er, sorry? How do you know the lab is "nasty" (especially any "nastier" than, say, a cattle farm where the pigs and cows stand around in their own literal shit all day long)? If anything, I'd expect, once they get the process down, that this will be far healthier than meat from butchered animals.
My dad went vegetarian without the rest of the family, and he did all the cooking. Look into lots of different fake meat varieties (fake beef crumbles and fake chicken, especially) and just replace the real meat in your meals with those if you're cooking, and don't tell the rest of your family until after they've been eating it for a couple weeks.
The only thing I'd not recommend is veggie burgers. Those just taste terrible, I've never had a single one that was good. (And of course other things that are just straight up cuts of meat, like ribs/steaks, though if those are in your regular diet, then you must be rolling in it, lol.)
Once they can make that in a lab, then of course you will. Get some stem cells from an especially tasty cow, and then keep the cow in extremely healthy conditions, and you can have choice steaks indefinitely, without any killin's.
Well, naturally. Of course, I know any number of vegetarians, who if this came out, would be happy to be taste testers for this as well, because of the ethical implications.
Portobello mushrooms is far more preferable as a "meat substitute" than tofu, that's for sure. LOVE portobellos! Fry them up in some olive oil, add a dash of soy sauce and a sprig of fresh rosemary and it's divine.
I'm a vegan and at first used tofu as my "meat" but now it's things like portobello mushrooms, beans, lentils. My health improved so much after I cut out meat and dairy.

How about Kobe beef?
Yum!
PeTA is going to make us eat our own ****, literally.
As far the whole vegan slash vegetarian thing-- I tried doing that and I failed at it. I still need animal fats to maintain the synapses in my head. Meat I can do without.
Same here. I don't eat a great deal of meat though cheese and high fat dairies are my downfall and I'm working on that.
