taco bell been serving me fake meat for 56 years y’all too late
McDonalds too
Waldo G hahaha, true.
taco bell
serving Waldo G since 1962
Funniest thing I've read in a long long time... king. Hahaha
Great way to flush your pipes though
"Is the cow still alive?"
*Awkward pause*
"We don't hurt the cow."
Yeah, Gertrude's dead.
Burton L no doubt hahaha
Dead due to old age
They may still be sold for their meat. But while the cows are with them, they only take what they need to grow meat artificially. It's sad that the cow still dies, but the amount of meat we could potentially grow would reduce the need to kill as many cows. I think it's an admirable short term goal.
EDIT: I just realized that I wrote this as though I'm sure that this is what happens. I don't know. I'm just saying, that's what could be happening at their facility.
Key word "we"
Agreed, looked unnecessarily shady for a negative answer...
7:20 "I am not willing to say this is the best steak I have ever had in my life..."
7:25 Chef: "I will end you and your loved ones"
Haha
ROFL good one
He looks like the guy on Ratatouille who killed a guy with his thumb
Fr, that chef cooked that to perfection
My mans did his best to add garnish as well.
If Gordan Ramsey taste test approves this, the market for this will skyrocket.
I agree
I know he won't like it
@otakurocks my sausage will 😈😂😂😂
@otakurocks EXCUSE??? GORDON RAMSAY IS GORGEOUS
otakurocks not a real “cooker”, but I’m pretty sure he is a world renowned chef.
otakurocks “not a real cooker” wow! He just have 16 mechelin star out of nowhere huh? And all of those recipes come from someone else huh?
Technically, it's not fake meat. If meat is something that comes from an actual animal. The cells are from an animal, it's not synthetic or fake. Crazy how far technology has gotten.

certainly possible if the dna hasn't degraded too much

@Buro Dackelsorry but our planet is more important than their greedyness and business
@Buro Dackel Wall street is just a news company. How will they throw the country back a few decades with this new meat cell technology? This is the future. Learn to adapt
The ranchers can always switch industries. The exact same thing that happened throughout the millennia.
@Pothanos You can't force old hags to adapt. Learn to accept that elders will be elders.
If it tastes like meat and doesn’t harm me in other ways then why does it bother people so much
I'm sure smokers said the same thing just like the drunk who killed a family last week in a auto wreck.
@@highspeaker6192 that's the most retarded analogy I've heard this year
Because they'd rather be eating a dead cow than a living one
I think the main the problem people have with this is that they say it’s not natural, also some could be working in the field of agriculture and fear they’ll be out of jobs.
nafaidni the smoker analogy is a good one. Back then people smoked because they thought it was okay and in fact healthy, now we know differently but it’s too late.
I'd rather eat this than chicken nuggets coming from antibiotic feed chickens in brazil, slaughtered half a year ago..
Yep, you can't beat the taste of those ground up heads, feet and assholes.
@@ProteusTG dont forget the tumors from being so sick and riddled with disease! I'm lovin' it!
@Brian Woodrow Um, what? You can grow it in a sterile environment, have you never had a lab class? As long as you inoculate your sample properly and don't contaminate your food dish then there will be no unwanted bacteria. Antibiotics are not necessary. If that was the case, we wouldn't be able to make antibiotics in the first place, lol.
@Brian Woodrow Lol, get owned and come with a more stupid side-argument. Animals who are feed with trash are the worst type of meat you can buy, and a few. Btw any natural process can be done in a lab with enough advance of tech, just give them time.
Its freaking clump of cells 🤢🤮
Today: Trying the First Lab Grown Meat
10 Years Later: Meeting the First Lab Grown Man
Well, technically it has already been done with in vitro fertilization. It's human cells at first (spermatozoa), in this video it's stem cells and a culturing process. Different procedures and results but both are "lab grown" technically.
Though still a mother is needed as a carrier for the fertilized cells... Maybe someday babies will be completely grown in a lab and "born" from an artificial womb... Though that would be like in Brave New World, the dystopian sci-fi, not sure how that would play out ethically or if it is that great of an idea in reality lol
@@natewind my dude, the person said the BOOK brave new world was dystopian, not the idea of lab babies
@@natewind Okay, have you even read brave new world? If you haven't, you wouldn't really know what they were referencing, and you can stop arguing.
whats funny about this is that it could happen
Yummy
Grass fed cattle is going to be around, however this version of lab grown meat is going, to replace the factory farms.
In that case im switching for grassfed.
@@user-jn1ts4wl1c We just have to wait for your generation to die off then. Future humans will look at animals husbandry the way we look at slavery.
@Buro Dackel Are you saying Jews are resistant to change and progress? That's repugnant.
@@dreamdiscounts Except animals will never be on the same level as humans.
@@Zorooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Animals don't have to be on the same level as humans to be seen as sentient and conscious beings that deserve rights. Look at cats and dogs. The society is extremely hypocritical for defending cats and dogs and enjoying flesh of dead animals like pigs and cows. It's all perception, and that perception will change over time.
Eventually this will be cheap, mass produced and indistinguishable from conventional meat. There will be no excuse not to eat this alternative, but there will still people who won't eat it out of principle, even if it's exactly the same.
Did you look at the inside of the chicken nugget the meats are coming out spongy with air pockets. With meat you want it tender and the only way to get tender meats is through animals because they use there muscles there whole life so until they find a way to make it excact I’m not eating it
You're mistaking principle for ego
give it a few years and you will NOT be able to tell the difference
Young ADV maybe. That’s a big maybe too. as of right now it’s insanely expensive, scantily produced and looks and tastes nothing like actual meat. Chicken or beef.
As long as they can make it like A5 Wagyu I'll be cool with it
Cant wait for the black mirror episode on this

Yeah it has little nanobots in it
All the cells of the meat combine into an intelligent cow and shoots everyone.
Oh you mean the meat industry right now? That's black mirror....
@@datnguyenthe8300 nah, needs more tech
Just imagine in the near future that you open a pack of pills and put one in water and it expands into a raw steak then putting it on a grill
i have a better idea
pill and inside is a very small group of cells, put it in water and it grows into a cow
Then replace that with any animal
@@40watt53 Imagine we will grow our meat in our houses like how we grow plants
Like that one scene from Spy Kids
It’s coming 😂
"Is the cow still alive?"
"We don't hurt the cow."
Yes they just take blood sample of cow 🐄
This means we could grow human meat without killing anyone! Tasty!
tastes like chicken i heard xD
MaxQQ I don’t know why it wouldn’t taste like pork, since we share basically the same skin and meat as them
So you could be a cannibal without killing anyone
Ummm....
Heard a cannibal tribe called it long pork
I'm excited by stuff like this. Yeah, I'm sure there's a huge potential for profit. But the people involved in these early stages seemed genuinely committed to addressing a problem and trying to create something new. If they succeed, I'm sure the money will follow.
Yaaay no more animal torture
Im not even vegan
The best part we can grow chicken nuggets
@Gay Fish th-cam.com/video/DYQDWF2SkSU/w-d-xo.html
If you know it's torture, not being vegan isn't something to brag about.
@Gay Fish They hurt them with metal rods, peel off there skin, cut there necks, kill the baby in front of the mother etc. Just seeing those videos made me cry for a week and wanted animals to kill us for what they do to animals.
Not just that but it’ll help slow the climate change
Mmmm Mammoth ! I haven't had a mammoth burger in Ice Ages.
dude I wish I had a good enough education to be able to nominate you with some award for this
🙄🤣
Genius
Please note the Mammoth is extinct. Also off the menu is the dodo bird. Cattle exist because we, as a society, started to raise them for food and clothing. If we hadn't done this, I or the next living creature that thought they looked yummy would have hunted and killed them and they too would likely be extinct.
Lol. Frozen blood & tissue samples, PCR & DNA reconstruction, easy enough to clone, it's a high school science project for the 4H club.
More interesting are the teams wanting to scrape & DNA test all the oldest Christian artifacts so they can Clone Jesus.
Why make chicken nuggets though? Why not shark nuggets? Or sea turtle nuggets? The possibilities are endless.
We can eat endangered species without endangering them anymore 🤩

That's actually really nice.
You can do this to cows, you can do this to human too. Human meat burger!
Mmmm
True, but why?
Why not?
yeah, you shouldn't be arrested for eating a human if it's legal to eat animals
coc private server a human is a type of animal so yes
"In order for something to be called meat it has to come from an actual animal."
I love how that idiot nodded with him...the cells used to create this lab meat does come from animals.
I had the same thought
Exactly
they meant meat as in, slaughtering chopping the animal to bits traditionally, it's just about the process
@@derrickcortes7703 That still doesn't change anything...the meat is still coming from the animal.
@@Miyakolover I agree, but slaughtered meat comes from slaughtered animals, the man is just asserting the traditional value.
When lab grown meat becomes more widespread, It won't necessarily mean the end for ranchers. It would be best if the movement would reduce the need for unethical practices at slaughterhouses.
MercifulMaster yeah you would get”luxury real meat”
What unethical practices. The humane slaughter house act of 1968 made it illegal to torture animals in slaughter houses and made it mandatory that animals would be sedated or paralyzed before they were killed so that they wouldn't feel pain. And if you want to talk about recent slaughter houses found doing illegal business, that is the 0.01% of slaughter houses so your point doesn't make sense when you say that slaughter houses are unethical when they kill animals.
what do you want them to do, give the cows a luxury retreat while they are killed. They are animals for christ sake.
Pigs, chickens and cattle only flourish today because of demand. Once that is gone their populations will dwindle rapidly.
They'll still be slaughtered for leather.
Just means the meat goes to waste.
Congrats, we've gone a step backward.
It would be so cool if you could grow your own meat at home in the future. You'd just go to the store to pick up some stem cells and then grow your steak like a plant.
Well you can make your own vegan meat its just depends on you if it tastes good.
I don't have a greenthumb..my meat all dead
Hashirama Senju you cant grow steaks yet but you can make burgers
You wouldn't even need to do that! Just save some cells from the last meat and grow it. And then remove some more cells from the culture you made with the meat and make a culture out of that. And you keep going until you have an empire of lab grown meat!
That may happen by the time we’re knocking on heaven’s door
I'm not a vegan but been this sounds like an amazing idea 🤗🤗🤗 I would try
Same
if i paid $50 for steak and you gave me 1 slice, ill be throwing you on the grill
I don't think the journalist had to pay for it 😂
These are still in research phases. As they streamline the process and scale up, the price will drop.
😂😂
As a graduate student in biomedical research, this is amazing. The ability to artificially manufacture a TISSUE inside the lab, which is safe for humans to eat, is a major breakthrough. People talking about toxins or unnatural settings and things like this may be slightly misguided. The trick to making something like this is to mimic the environment of a growing body, without the body. So optimally, all the chemicals used in the process would be the same as what's coursing through your veins, right now. The problem is, it's very difficult to 'trick' these cells into thinking they're inside a tissue.
The main issue is cost. Until you can manufacture a piece of meat that's comparably priced to live-meat, it's pretty much useless as a serious economic piece.
Agreed on the cost being a major factor... However I believe there will always be a market for this lab grown meat... The fact that it's not coming from an animal opens the door to vegetarians who were vegetarians because of the animal cruelty. There's already a market for fake meats like veggie burgers...I'm sure those with a bit of expendable income will gladly purchase this lab meat over their veggie burgers...
pheadrus1999 agreed. I’m not a graduate yet, but this is a massive breakthrough both in agriculture and science. This may be the starting step into a whole new deviation of technological improvements.
And actually isn't it more clean than factory farming? Win-win if that's the case.
@@imortalminecrafter You literally just used a load of big words but added absolutely nothing to the conversation whatsoever 😂
Its cheaper to let a cow graze in a field
So when can I have beluga steak and roast eagle?

Joseph Ybarra yeah they’re working on that
Already doing that.
Its in progress rn
You got this the wrong way. They're already doing that and this steak growing is piggybacking off THOSE advances...
We have done that for many many years
Like growing human ears on the back of mice
Or using the organs inside pigs to transplant into humans because they are basicly the same
My contract is that if you can fool me just once with a fake meat I will switch forever.
I’d love to have an update on this
When these meat become regular
Real meat will be hella expensive
at least most real meat will become grass fed and have better quality to compete with this
OneupTH right lol real beef Chuck will be as expensive as Authentic Top Grade Japanese Wagyu Beef is today.
tDrauqRaM different people have different taste, but grass fed is healthier and have higher quality
@@someone-yw2qw how do you know that lab meat will be lower quality? in 10 years time who's to say for sure? we will have to wait and see.

They actually do this already! Have you seen they dude who got the tip of his finger grown back using stim cells? shits amazing. I just wish there was more widespread development of the technology.
I could eat Michael Phelps 😍
They already do, the problem is a lot of times when inserting the body parts back into the body, the body rejects it. It's also a lot more succeptible to tumors.
Not that I'm not a fan of this, on the contrary. However it is still a very young science which can grow a lot. But I think everybody here understands reapplying a piece of skin or an entire kidney are very different. Also sorry for any grammar mistakes.
I'm sure most of the fast food's have more medical applications

Nah, you're just finding ways to quickly and efficiently keep up with the supply demand.
this could be groundbreaking if they can get the ball rolling,
i'm a meat eater and definately think it'll be a good day when we can have ethical meat that tastes just like the real thing,
if it can be similarly priced then i'd make the switch for sure, no reason why not!
If they can get the the meatball rolling lol
Because real meat will always be better?
@@AdamJensen_ can't really say that with much conviction though, because we don't know if real meat will 'always' be better, the plant whopper from BK is already pretty close to the real thing, and imho we're still in early days, i think there will come a day when fake meat is indistinguishable from the real thing.
I mean, if it tastes like the actual meat and doesnt have negative side affects, id be down to make the swap
Not only would it taste like actual meat, it is actual meat, biologically identical.
@@rdizzy1 hopefully its the same price or cheaper, that would speed up the global spread of this type of meat

I would love to see a future where ranchers raise animals in an amazing environment and food so they can use their cells to produce humane meat. Gertrude would be hanging out in a big field with her crew, getting massages just like the fancy cows in japan and starring an tv ad.
The rancher guys says that the lab meat producers don't want to share publicly how they produce the meat. The meat industry is so open to videos of how animals are kept and slaughtered...(sarcasm)
@Phil Fry if that were the case why would they be so scared of people filming it?
They don't want to show how they make the meat for business reasons, not ethical ones
Yeah dude it's not like you can see our farm from the road. You mean they don't let the public walk around them I guess

Exactly. People will find any reason to cling to their outdated beliefs.

5:20 "Is the cow still alive?" *skips the part where he says he shot it 40 times in the head killing it instantaneously* "-and we don't hurt the cow."
"We don't hurt the cow" and "we don't kill the cow" are two different things
Im sorry, you don't get to complain about the lack of transparency from these companies when the guy interviewing you literally just toured two facilities. And you don't get to call something "fake" when it is molecularly identical to the "genuine" version. The only thing that has changed is that the cow doesn't have to die.
Thing is they have to appear sceptical and negative because its their future livelyhood at stake kinda like with the coal industry. But i do think people should already plan ahead making a niche for the people that might lose their jobs if a technology like that will come to pass globally.
The cows will die of old age eventually.

It might be dead for other reasons ^^ But yea I thought the same when I heard that haha :D
@@Dracef2135 You have to understand what part of any organism is mostly stem cells first and that's why this was cut. The cost to take stem cells from a full grown animal as well as the amount of results (not many stem cells harvested) is minimal, compared to say a cow growing in the womb of another cow, but scientific research isn't as regulated towards animals as say the farming industry's are... they have to be cost effective to make this work as well and the cost to make is just too astronomical for this to work $50 for a thin slice of "meat"? what's a pound going to cost? Stem cells are not a viable resource
@@caelvin12 bruh 6 years ago it cost a third of a million dollars. In 2 or 3 more years it will be cheaper than normal meat (mince meat cost 12, bc that's a steak it costs 50)

I believe this idea would be the solution to future food issue as well as environmental problems. So thankful to the researchers for their talent and contribution!
I hate when people say "This is not real meat". These people obiously skipped Biology in high school. Cows litterally grow the meat and tissue the SAME way as lab meat: Cells gather nutrients from its surroundings and replicate. The Cell doesnt care if it gets these nutrients from a blood stream, nutrient solution or via teleportation, it becomes the same thing, everytime: meat! Just because the meat is of lesser quality due to its structure (at the time!) does not mean that it is not meat at all! If youre at the supermarket and see lower quality meat, you still call it meat, so why not lab meat too?
SinOfficial You know people deny science all the time and it’s technically not natural meat because it was constructed in a lab without the natural amount of proteins, fat, etc. Instead it’s regulated. It’s kind of like those people who say a fetus isn’t a kid. It’s a kid but people deny it is for whatever reason.
It's not nature.. It's lab grown meat.. Not meat grown from the cow itself... That's why it doesn't exactly taste like a steak the guy says.
SinOfficial Idk if you’ve been to an American high school or to Montana
Justin Smith It’s a human embryo and, more importantly, not a person.
If you actually listened in Biology at high school then you will know that this process is through cell division, you know, the same process babies are made. Just because it’s the same process doesn’t mean it’s the same thing. And they state multiple times that they haven’t perfected it to grow the “SAME” as cows do or else it would be the exact same thing. Like the scientist said, it’s 60% of the way there to the real thing. I think you might need to watch the video again

That chicken nugget was looking kinda sus 😂😂
I love this video so much. I want to learn this and do this so bad
Why does the cook look so sad? :c
: (
Because he was creating a whole dish but all the interviewer wanted to establish was how the steak compared to traditional meat.
because he overate this artificial manmade junk
He looks normal. Not everyone has to fake laugh or be angry always.
The Kitchen turns you into an alcoholic.
Finally... I can taste a human meat without killing a human...
Youre on to something here.
That would probably kill you. The human body does not react well to cannibalism. I was actually surprised at the number of articles out there on the effects of consuming human flesh. Point is... death is a side effect.
actually there is a cultured meat company that said they were going to produce human meat. Regulations will be a problem imo, but i would definetly taste it
@@wellesradio naw bro. You can eat human with no side effects. There's just a piece of the brain you can't eat. In fact, cannibal tribes knew this and they would eat all of the human corpse except this part of the brain.
I believe the effects are insanity and eventual death? Could just be insanity though.
Nothing wrong with a human arm though. Totally healthy and safe to eat. Give it a go.
yo..... YOOOOOOO
Based on another comment here, I 100% would pay to have cultures of my cells made to eat myself.
am i gonna say it's the best steak of my life "NO."
the look in the chef's eyes though .. ( 7:24 )
Am I the only person that sees the endless potential for growth here? Meat without having to kill the animal..we could have Tiger burgers or Lion nuggets. Orca steaks, Golden Eagle fingers. The possibilities. You could take your cat to the butcher and have him take a wee tiny sample. Couple weeks later you could literally eat a Mr Whisker's Burger right in front of the titular moggy.
I am totally serious about this btw. Sure this seems like a facetious post but it is absolutely my true thoughts. I am down for a Giraffe Tikka Masala.
Dude I can't wait for that
@@fretshredder7 We have T-Rex DNA found inside of fossilized soft tissue in bones. We could theoretically grow a T-Rex burger right now. Imagine the science museums selling T-Rex burgers and Triceratops hot dogs. Or you go to the Zoo, and they serve real Lion steaks, etc....
@@bio2020 there was blood but theres likely no stem cells left so no
That did seem like a joke lol, but I see your point.
bio2020 No, we can’t grow T-Rex burgers. Any DNA from the Late Cretaceous Period (when the T-Rex lived) has long since been decayed and is pretty much unsalvageable. If we wanted to make T-Rex burgers, we’d have to obtain the DNA by somehow reverse-engineering what little pieces of DNA we have left.
In short, it’s impossible.
I think people dont even realize how big and futuristic this tech is...we are literally witnessing a big revolution in the making, if they can pull it off and make healthier/cheaper lab grown meat products with the same tasty taste that real meat has then this would change the world as we know it in a few years since it would make real meat obsolete when you have this incredible tech instead.
agreed
Not really. Same is going to happen as with the use of plastic for clothes instead of the traditional wool among other things. First it will be expensive as it's new and looks all good, then people will migrate over once it becomes cheap enough for the average consumer. Then, as happened with things like real fur and handmade clothes (literally everything used to be handmade, now it's the hallmark of a luxury product), real meat from real cows will become rarer and so will be reserved for the rich. It will become a luxury.
Wow we are really trying hard not to go extinct in the futures to come.
The fact is this meat isn't fake, it both originates from a real animal and is grown as if it was still inside a real animal. There is no difference between the cells in this meat and the cells in a living cow.
@@chaotixthefox Yes and its great since people would basically still eat the meat they love but no animal will suffer or die in order to make their lab grown meat, it will be good for everybody.
That chef looked so hurt when he said his steak wasn’t perfect
Strive for perfection as much as possible,that's nice.
Absolutely fantastic, nothing wrong with this new alternative
"Meat must come from an animal to be called meat"
*grows meat using animal's cells*
"Wait no"
Edit: thank you for the Likes :)
"Meat must come directly from an animal" - the lawyers
@@Morrigi192 still comes from it
Actually using the animal cells is more direct than slicing it up.
Reed Markowitz” the animal must be slaughtered”
A proper marketing : display some videos of animals running around will do.
Just wait for "Save the cells" or "Stop cell abuse" campaigns.
@@dh00mketu Have you seen humanity these days? Wouldn't be surprised if it happened
Yes, "radical, ultra-conservative vegan" will still protest against this because it still involves animals.
@@RadenWA I'm a vegan and can tell you it's generally considered a good thing but still not vegan; just a massive improvement on the current situation
I'm pretty sure that's already a thing now
That'd be pretty dumb. Vegetables are made of cells too.
This is a video from 4 years ago?! The topic is still amazing
Talking to the Rancher: It’s about the planet not your personal wallet!
This is pretty cool. I'm not like hardcore against slaughtering animals for food source, we do what we gotta do. But obviously it would be ideal to avoid mass slaughtering like that. And ontop of that, this looks more efficent than animal slaughtering, so I'm all for it.
I agree. Cow meat as we know it is delicious but it it inefficient to produce.
I think it's tolerated right now because there's really no alternative. Once there is, it's kind of a no brainer.
My main reason is global warming, animals produce so much methane and take up so much space that it is awful for our environment.
Cows are one of the most inefficient ways to get meat. It's great that this exists!
most reasonable comment in the whole section. +1.
I remember one day in biology we were learning about cell replication and cloning, and I asked my teacher why don't we just take cells from animals and create animal meat, and he said we're probably gonna start doing that in the future. I'm so happy to have gotten this video in my recommendations 😊
I can imagine that’s a great feeling 😊
Sorry Einstein
I don't find nothing wrong to eat actual animals rather than lab made fake meat.
Google is always listening. Always.
@@fallenslave6684 well, maybe you should watch this video then 🙃
I love that! I can’t be vegan because I have anemia so this would be a great alternative. Can’t wait to see this on every store, hopefully in the near future
Lee Ara There are different types of anemia which needs different types of cure/diets
@Lee Ara collagen?
@Lee Ara what if i don't want to?
Oh and .... THEY'RE TURNING THE FROGS GAY
You can fix that with colloidal silver.
Real meat will become the luxary hipster food I'd imagine.
"They don't kill em like they used to "
*Sips drink*
But it already is real meat
Killing animals can't consuming them will be very bizarre soon
You kidding me this dude just said it’s 50 dollars a piece until they figure out how to mass produce it I think the hipsters and the rich will only enjoy lab made meat
@@Im_George it's like how handmade things are expensive, it's gonna be the same thing with the meat industry in the future.
Rancher was shook. He sees what's on the horizon.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHH AAAAAAAAAAIIIIAAAAA IIIIIIAAAAAAAHHH
Not for another decade or so. Until it's cheaper than actual meat... It won't be a reality.
6:46 why this feel like a scene from Hannibal
By the end of the year? This was put out 4 yrs ago still haven't seen it in stores
Yes you have they are just sold at McDonald's
If it tastes good, I WILL eat it.
Good luck getting past the agriculture moguls though. They're going to fight this as hard as Coal and Oil fights Wind and Solar.
Chesus Jrist ok that’s bold. But please watch about for mutation and disease stuff.
They wont have a choice at some point. Lets hope they dont leave it too late
Thing is, there still needs to be someone raising the cows to harvest the cells, meaning that chances are agriculture would still live, just in a different form.
Maybe, but there just simply is no stopping something that's more ethical, better for environment, faster and cheaper. Think about horse merchants in early 1900's trying to stop automobiles from coming onto the scene. Once the momentum picks up nothing can stop it.
Well... the same way horses fought cars and torches fought electricity xd
Regarding that law that says that a product can only be classified as "Meat" if it actually comes from an animal... the laboratory meat qualifies... the cells come from an animal.
You've got the makings of a lawyer lol
I was thinking the same thing.
@@Aggrobiscuit Because killing humans is illegal. Doesn't take a genius to figure that one out
Came here to say this, the cells were taken from an animal. What I think the reporter failed to mention (and im sure the legislation did) is that in order to be labeled "meat" the product must come from an living breathing animal that was grown naturally and then slaughtered for its flesh.
@@smks8er what if I had a cow and I amputated the leg but kept the cow alive, then later cooked this piece of leg and put it in front of me to consume it, would I consume a piece of meat?
What if the amount of flesh I cutted was 10 % of the body volume of the cow, would the cow now be considered 90%alive and 10% cooked?
Would the legislators say I have a piece of a cooked meat or just a cow leg?
In my opinion at the end of the day your stake fundamentally is a collection of fat and muscle Chels mixed with some nutrients and so is the Lab Grown meat..
So in any case if the lagislators have such a real problem with the rest of the meat industry over a name I suggest just naming it to LG Meat "Lab Grown Meat"
I can here dan halen in the background of the laboratory screaming DOUBLE IT!!!.....DOUBLE IT!!!!!!!
This video is five years old I wonder where the technology and business is now ?
Waiter: How would you like your steak?
Customer: In-vitro...
from the animal
I'm so excited for this technology! Actual meat without the massive environmental impact of the meat industry
more food available, mean more humans.
if right now the population is somewhat controlled by the lack of food and polution comming out of agriculture, with this tech it will shift toward population growth.
more cars, more trash, more cities and more waste.
it's just a new way to eventually die
The cows are the big one especially. I don't think the average person understands just how absurdly bad cows are for the environment. The methane gas they produce (which is literally just that. Their gas) is one of the worst things for us as a civilization on this planet. It has to be addressed.
@@kc2094 the big problem we have with the meat industry is the over consumption and over production.
sadly it's all due to the fast food industry.
if we went back to small farmer producing a couple dozen cows to feed the village, there would be no problem.
because we would consider the food important.
but with all the food that is being wasted, when you think about it, it's just a useless cow that was born to throw in the garbage.
obviously we can't stop the ''meat'' industry. because it would mean the extinction of those animals that are not found in the wild anymore. maybe if we forced them to plant a tree for every cow they have it would tone down the over production
@@keshlalish5586 Not really. The demographic curve means as nations get more developed people start having fewer kids. Thus we likely will never reach "overpopulation" and will peak around 10 billion.
You have no clue, this will only momentarily postpone our demise as a species, as unchecked population growth and overuse of antibiotics will eventually lead to an epidemic of global proportions which will kill us all. This is a fact. We have already gone too far, half of us will have to die off, and those of us which survive will have to give up most of our modern day amenities to prevent even more damage from being caused to our environment. We will have to create a new atmosphere replacement, or inject millions of metric tons of Ozone gas straight to the stratosphere in order prevent solar radiation from killing us all.
looking forward to this!!
Is it possible to take my cell and make a steak from it? I wanna see if i tast good😂
I wanna try too, I have the same question: Do I taste good? 😂
I can’t wait to see “craft meat” restaurants in the future
More like… 'Artisanal meat' 😂😜
Thats an intriguing concept. Perhaps even micro brewery style ranch-eries
Daniel Luz hey, your body does exactly that when you're hungry, i wonder what would happen, if there's good or bad effects, either way it's interesting.
I would rather have the technology set in stone, and just vary the cells you put inside
We're not just any Steakhouse we are a micro ranchery
6:01 thats cheap if you think about the price when the first "clean meat" came out.
Techtastisch | Experimente und Lifehacks was it about 5k the first burger?
I hope I can try it soon
Techi ist auch hier? 😂
@Mohamed Hamzah Mohamed Osman Well no, not yet. But if it takes off and there is a demand for it, it will get cheaper and more avalible with time.
@@ynat1903 Probably in a few decades if the demand is high enough.
THIS is food science
Can't wait fro this.
If anything, this would cause farm-grown meats to go the way of organic products. You would see that "true meat" would be sold at a premium while the "cell meat" would most-likely be what goes into commercial food production. If it was half the price to get the same chicken, you bet that McDonald's would go "cell meat" overnight.
It may be a good idea that ranchers and chicken farmers consider researching the organic foods market to see what impacts this kind of technology has on them.
This is exactly what's going to happen as the lab-meats become commoditized and produced on industrial scale. Only the upper echelons of the society will be able to afford the real thing. The taste won't even matter that much because the real meat will be so expensive that no regular folk will remember what the real thing tastes like.
@@dancheb it will go back to the ways of the old days, a few hundred years back, when meat was only for the wealthy. I dont mind it. People are too used to living a life of excess, the world does not have enough resources for everyone to eat a steak every single day.
@@pray4ray666 In the old days you could still could raise your own livestock. But now, the government if/when under the guidance of the progressive policies will happily do everything in its power to restrict raising and ownership of the livestock through various means and incentivize the production of the lab-grown meat.
Currently, lab meat is still cost prohibited and a lower quality, but it will not likely stay that way. First we will get lab meat that will be a reasonable price and be sold as the "organic product", it is a cleaner healthy, more environmental option, but as the price comes down, then it will likely become the McDonald meat of choice. The every day meat of choice. But I agree that real beef and real lamb will likely not go away, but became a uncommon treat. We might see the dying out of cheap real meat, grain feed beef in mass and an increase of grass feed high end beef.
Yeah but why even go to a farmer for a cow or meat when you could grow it in a pastry dish and cut out cost , bring some transparency and gain support from all the SJWs who are extreme environment lovers and you could cut out majority of the farmers gaining more market share while also slowing down the consumption of meat . Why don't you like cell burgers because you can't taste the tears and sorrow of the cows who entered the slaughter house to make that delicious red burger you salivate over ? Like farmers would be hurt instantly if they allowed this to take market share because it would be no point in buying real meat when the other meat is also real and is cheaper than the real thing and taste decent like allot of farmers would lose money because all the money spent raising cattle that are sold primarily for meat and milk , aren't being bought at the same rate and for the same price as they use to because lab grown meat is a thing , that's why the meat industry will lobby hard to make this a no go .
