well its a good thing its too expensive for you then. They are marketing this to the rich.
on a more serious note. we are gettin pushback on people eating vegetarian. people will "not eat the bugs" and yet people also want to have unmitigated population control and increase our net energy usage.
something has to give...

Well it doesn't originate from Singapore, as the article/headline point out. But it's likely a good market for launching because it is home to some very wealthy people.
When you're only producing 100 Kg of product per month, you have to price it pretty high!

How did you arrive to the conclusion that this is anti-human? I believe this technology to be helpful, not harmful for humanity. We need to improve our food synthesis mechanisms.

I've heard from a bunch of different sources that most land humans use for farming is specifically for animal agriculture and that if everyone went vegetarian, something like 20% of the land would be required.
I'm hoping that if lab grown meat takes off and becomes affordable for your average person, we might be able to give back some of the land that was de-forested for animal agriculture back to nature.

#7 A parfait made from Japanese quail cells has become the first Australian lab-grown meat to hit the world market.
Singapore's food regulator approved Vow's quail foie gras for sale in March, making it only the second cell-cultured meat product to become available in the island city-state.

Energy usage is a self-imposed problem. We know how to generate massive amounts of electricity with zero emissions: nuclear energy. Insane self-described environmentalists successfully lobbied to make nuclear reactors nearly impossible to build in most Western countries, much to the delight of the coal industry. But laws can be changed, and if we're choosing between changing a law, and an environmental disaster, we should obviously change the law.
I'm pro-lab-grown-meat though; if it's a tasty source of protein that reduces animal suffering and reduces the environmental impact of the meat industry, why not?

What's this "we" stuff, you speak like we already have one world government and as if I'm responsible for providing food for people all over the globe. The future is regionalization, not more globalization. War is already killing globalism and it will intensify soon.

#10It's likely going to follow the lab grown meat used to be sold in Singapore supermarkets. Started with much hype it was predictably a flop, since noone wanted to buy it.
