oh ok, i stand corrected on that. the point still remains though that i dont see why people need to wait for lab grown meat to become affordable to just stop eating meat, when imo, even when its cheap enough it still wont be very good outside of certain things like burgers and sausages because of the texture (i.e. not being able to mimic how the fat feels when in between the flesh) not being able to match up to the original.
and even when it does enter the market it will probably only be available for like for upper middle class people for years and years
I get your point and I'm all for vegan diets. but it just won't happen unless meat gets taxed like crazy worldwide. And even before that there will be armed riots if you take away meat from certain demographics. Just look at people going completely nuts once you mention we could introduce one veggie day per week. I just don't see it. That's just how we humans behave...
