[quote]When you buy some beef at the butcher's, you know it comes from cattle that once mooed and chewed.
But imagine if this cut of meat, just perfect for your Sunday dinner, had been made from scratch - without slaughtering any animal.
US start-up Modern Meadow believes it can do just that - by making artificial raw meat using a 3D bioprinter.
But Prof Gabor Forgacs, of the University of Missouri, says bioprinting something that is part of a living creature is much more challenging than making an earring or a chocolate bar.
"We are printing live material - [the] cells are alive when we are printing them," he says.[/quote]
So its the cell's of the animal but no animals are being killed, so would you eat this if your a vegetarian? Also would any meat eaters try this kind of meat?
I would give it a shot.

1 ReplyDepends on how expensive it is. Although I prefer to stare into the eyes of the cow, pig, and chicken that I'm going to eat before it gets sent to the slaughterhouse.
