Reply to comment by werewolfpajamas in What would food look like if we could scale up lab grown meat? by sandcrawler56

First lab-grown burger was in 2013. And keep in mind that cultured meat is just meat. It's the same cells, just grown outside the animal. You can tailor the feedstock however you want.

Another interesting read: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cultured_meat#History

If I ask the average shopper in the meat aisle of my supermarket if they knew or cared about the antibiotics, hormones, antifungals, and other drugs/chemicals in the meat they're buying, or in the crops fed to those animals, I doubt a lot would know or care.
