Jun 2 at 23:06 | comment | added | John | @o.m. people ussually decide against eating meat due ot the suffering of the animal, vat meat has no brain so a mushroom can suffer just as much as a vat meat, it might even be more able to suffer. | |
Jun 2 at 17:00 | comment | added | o.m. | @John, artificial mushrooms rather than artificial meat because they decided to stop eating meat animals, so one more step away from meat makes sense if it is possible. And they're high-tech ... | |
May 31 at 1:17 | comment | added | John | What advantage do mushrooms have over vat meat? They would not be any more efficent. You would stil need to raise a diffrent crop to feed them. | |
May 29 at 13:42 | comment | added | John O | @o.m. If they cheat and eat chicken, can we count it as a vegetable too? | |
May 28 at 18:34 | comment | added | o.m. | @JBH, I wouldn't eat minced meat from a burger chain. Better plants, as long as it isn't supposedly-fresh sliced tomatoes. | |
May 28 at 17:08 | comment | added | JBH | This was part of Asimov's Foundation stories: the conversion of nearly all food to yeasts and the specialization of some in the flavoring of said yeast. Personally, I couldn't bring myself to try Burger King's "Impossible Whopper" plant-based patty. Call me old-fashioned. | |
May 28 at 14:44 | comment | added | o.m. | @JohnO, vegetarians mostly eat mushrooms. So for many practical reasons, I'd count it as a vegetable. | |
