I wouldn't eat it even if it was grown without a brain or nervous system, it would still gross me the **** out. |

I think for me meat has been abject for so long it wouldn't make much difference if it were cultured it would still repulse me. Plus I imagine it must have been derived from an animal at some point. In any case it's pretty creepy.

I don't think this makes a good argument, because it's meat we wouldn't ever ordinarily eat, and it has nothing to do ith cruelty in the industry.
Perhaps cultured dog meat would make a better argument? I think I would try it, if I knew it came out of a petri dish* and not a dog. *Almost said "if it came out of a lab" but that's ambiguous isn't it? |

Pedestrian makes a good point. And to answer her question – I'd definitely eat dog meat if I liked the taste. I'd probably eat it if I visited China and it didn't come from a... Ahem.. Petri dish. And I love dogs. Human meat wouldn't happen. There's a taboo around that which needs to be there. I'm not a biologist or anything, but I believe we (remote tribal customs notwithstanding) evolved a nearly hardwires aversion to it. But hell – even if some company started selling it, at least it isn't killing humans. |

I guess personally I find animal corpses only marginally less repulsive than human ones so the comparison of cultured human meat was I guess an attempt at explaining my perspective on the issue.

As for the human meat thing, lol. I kind of feel like eating animal would be the same as eating human, that's why it disgusts me so much |
