Nope. In my understanding, "regular" meat is bad enough. Leaving aside that a murder has to take place to acquire it, it has all kinds of ill effects on the body, over time. That's a health topic I don't want to elaborate on in this thread, but it's something I have done a lot of research on.

So lab grown meat has the unique quality of not having to murder an animal. I imagine that it will have many of the same negative effects on the human body as non-lab grown, and in addition, I wouldn't trust the people funding/producing it not to put even stranger things in it for nefarious purposes.

Aside from my choosing to eat regular meat, I'm inclined to agree with the question of what a lab would put in their "grown" meat.
