I run a health food business and I take my products out to farmers market etc. So I get to buy meat that I know has been grass fed, outdoor reared without any antibiotics and chemical feeds etc. My missus is a vegetarian so we don't really cook meat at home much. But if I do then I'll get quality stuff. I wouldn't touch the ****e that the supermarket sells.
Most of us are omnivores, and meat is part of our diet. I'm all for the animals being treated well before slaughter But the senseless slaughter of wild animals so some weird ****, like Kroenke, can put a trophy head on his wall so he can consider himself a superior species, is just plain ****ing sick!
I'm not sure that kronke is a trophy hunter himself. It is one of his companies that are promoting this sick TV channel though. Either way it makes him a **** for doing so.
B is because it's pumped full of water to expand the product. Adding it to oil makes a mess of the surroundings of your cooker as well.
What do you all think of lab meat. Several companies producing it in test quantities already trying to perfect the process. 10 years from ow may be able to eat real beef that had never been on a cow. Heck, you may even be able to eat endangered animal meat without an animal being harmed.
@Spurlock not wanting to drag up that old conversation and have the vultures attack again, but something I'm curious about. From a religious standpoint, would eating lab grown meat that would normally come off a forbidden animal still be forbidden for you? If that animal had never lived/been slaughtered... It's just the cultivated muscles cells/ fat of an organism.
I'm also interested in whether Vegetarians would feel free to eat it. I know some that wont eat veggie sausages, as they feel giving up meat should go all the way including analogues.
Not 100% sure Milky. However if it's cultivated from the cells of the actual organism, then it will become that organism? Or am I not understanding the concept?
I believe it is taken from a small sample of cells initially from a live animal then fed and cultivated... They divide, etc. By the time it reaches your plate, you won't have any cells from the original organism, but yes, the source material will have originated from one.
I don't know how people manage to eat battery farmed poultry, it smells like rotten sewage. I once bought one and took the raw meat off the carcass to show my pal who thinks there's no difference, the texture of the meat was like frayed fabric, like a concertina net. The bones stank of ****, there's no value in the carcass for stock, it's just rancid. Eggs are the same, them packs where you get 24 eggs for £1.75 are filth, the yolks smell like fresh turd. The extra money for free range is worth it to me.
I'm not sure then mate...I probably wouldn't but I don't even go for the imitations, just because it's a meat I haven't had therefore do not miss
They use growth hormones to stimulate it don't they? Not sure I'd eat it, and there's no fat, which is what makes a proper piece of red meat.
I'm not on your level mate, I did not know this. Clearly you spend way too much time falling off your bike and stopping to examine the nearest deposit.
I am vegetarian and I eat some vegetarian sausages, but others are just too awful to contemplate. The sausage in itself is not a problem because it just one of a number of delivery systems of whatever you choose to eat, it is not exclusive to meat. I can't see artificial meat being acceptable to me, but I will have see how it is made and what goes into it.
