Someone at lunch today reminded me that someone in the world is engineering meat and concepted a product sure to impact the hunger rate in some societies -- the Meat Sheet. Other names include Pseudoflesh, which has an appetizing ring to it.

First of all, let me say that my stomach flinches a tad whenever I hear this referred to. It is nice and humane and protects animals from being butchered, but I just can''t get my mind around it. Culturing cells to create muscle we can consume? All without the benefit of actual "life"? I cant decide if that is good, bad or scary. Maybe all three. Will I eat it? HELL no. Will this change vegetarians' mind set? I have absolutely no idea.
