Im a vegan but Ive noticed that most other vegans are not really looking forward to lab grown meat. I on the other hand am optimistic and hopeful. I still miss the taste, texture and nutritional benefits of meat and this will hopefully tick those boxes (with plenty of other bonuses as well). The biggest challenge it seems to me though, is once price parity is achieved, how do you convince meat eaters to choose this chicken nugget over the perceived 'healthier' flesh of a dead chicken. That to me, will be the watershed moment. Perhaps its just a case of removing subsidies on real meat or getting the price point of cultured meat to be even less than real meat so people dont have to make the decision in the first place - their wallets will make it for them
