I wonder if we’ll ever get a blue raspberry of meats - something that doesn’t exist at all in nature. The trick is that most Anglos are pretty picky about what kind of land meat they will eat to start with.
I’m really damn worried about what the meat industry will do going forwards. The oil lobby got pretty crazy with a lot less pre-existing cultural fodder.

How long before someone makes faux human meat? Would it be outlawed?
It shouldn’t be. Sounds like a victimless crime if there ever was one.
in theory youre right.
but meat industry lobbyists woud surely try to take advantage of the outrage.
i vaguely remember a post on reddit on this topic.
something like “artesinal celebrety meat”
which of course turned out to be an “artistic project” or something trying to
“highlight the moral issues” with lab meat,
or some other horseshit.
EDIT: here’s the post i was talking about

im staying optimistic, as long as it will be cheaper, the fastfood industry will massivly lobby in favor of it, and imo. mostly balance that out.
it will probably just have an awfull reputation, like mcnuggets “pink sludge”
