Finally, an artificial "meat" cultured under the power of science appeared, solved the food problem

"Meat" that we normally use is made by disassembling cattle, pigs, birds and the like, but it seems that at last we succeeded in creating artificial "meat" with the power of science.

It seems likely to play a role in solving the food problem, apparently not necessarily a good thing.

Details are as follows.
Lab-Grown Meat a Reality, But Who Will Eat It?: NPR

According to this article, it has been sought to "cultivate only edible parts of livestock" as an alternative to the means of animal husbandry for nearly a century ago, but finally at the South Carolina Medical University in the USA Biologist Vladimir Mironov said he succeeded in cultivating artificial meat from animal tissues. The meat was lovingly named "shmeat".

And according to Mironov, the problem faced by "shmeat" is the demand for production equipment and capital, consumers, "As consumer demand is not there, or shmeat production is very expensive We can not get started, so we need to be aware of the timing. "

This is a picture of actual "shmeat".


For this research, Molecular Biologist Margaret Mellon said, "The idea of ​​cultivating and producing artificial meat is very bad," and all foods are on the earth, the Earth We should be raised with the riches of the sun and the sunshine. Also, as we need a lot of energy to cultivate meat, we are also concerned that we will consume a large amount of fossil fuel.

By the way it is the taste of "shmeat", but Mironov says that it resembles the taste of the turkey. I feel like eating once, but it seems to make me somewhat complicated ... / /.
