I was just reading this article about lab grown meat:

The idea of meat that can be obtained without the need to kill any living creatures is interesting, but I just can't see this catching on. For one thing they are marketing it to "eco-conscious people and people who don’t eat meat for ethical reasons," but I don't see why those people, who likely have already eliminated meat from their diets would find this appealing. Especially since "When it comes to producing meat, Forgacs says the most difficult part is creating muscle tissue that tastes, looks and feels like animal flesh." Sure doesn't sound too appetizing to me!
