Have you ever stopped and thought for a moment about the direction that food production is moving in this country? Of course, most of you will undoubtedly say "no" while proudly proclaiming that you continue to "not consider" how food is being produced in the future either. But that is ok because the Plant Base Riot has your back. We are here to inform you of the almost Orwellian methodology the modern industry is using to grow your meat!

That's right, I did say grow..... your.... meat. Cellular agriculture has shoved its way into the food production floor and is beginning to gain notice and momentum. So what is cellular agriculture? Well, I am glad we now have your attention! This food production method seems to fuse sea monkey cultivation, plant biopsies, and the reprogramming of animal stem cells to create a meaty medley within a single petri dish. But, all kidding aside, cellular agriculture produces animal-sourced foods (like milk, meat, eggs, and butter) that can be made without animals. Cellular engineers can replicate these products and other( Faux leather) by using a microbe like yeast or bacteria, stem cells, and growth media from bovine and the essential cellular components from plants. Ultimately, cellular agriculture will ensure that fast food goers will continue to wrap enormous lines around chain drive-throughs worldwide, as the cost of animal faux animal flesh will be cheaper than the real thing in due time. I'm looking in your direction In-and-out Burgar, don't think we have noticed your eternal lines and congestion that often interrupt traffic patterns throughout California. I have never seen so many people so damn eager to accelerate their progression to coronary heart disease than the staunch In and out patron.

So what does all this mean? There are so many variables to consider with this never-before-seen food production procedure? For starters, lab-grown and 3D printed beef would give mother earth a long-overdue rest. We have been battering mother nature, our air quality, soil, and water supplies with unsustainable cattle production methods over the past 70 years. So lab-grown meat could be the answer we have been looking for to shut down the cattle, chicken, and pork cartels once and for all, Thus ultimately ending animal suffering while simultaneously reducing carbon footprints.

On the other end, how might lab-grown meat impact human health? This product essentially transmits similar tones of issues surrounding genetically modified seeds that have been debated for nearly a decade now. Will cellular agriculture companies share space with other genetic puppet masters like Monsanto? Further, if lab-grown meat can successfully be produced on a monumental scale, will that droop the cost of animal abuse products on supermarket shelves worldwide, making it more accessible, affordable, and desirable. Can you imagine the health implications this new market would have on wellness? Americans are already fighting chronic disease on every conceivable front. We have cancer attacking us in the trenches, diabetes trying to flank us, Cardiovascular disease overhead providing air support for enemy forces, and chronic inflammation perched in the sniper's nest just waiting to pick its perfect shot. Is more meat, cheese, eggs, and mayo, all grown in a petri dish, really the best option in the ailing United States? Lastly, if no animals are harmed in lab-based meat production, how might this impact vegan and vegetarian lifestyles? Can we reenter the wild and eat "meat" once again?
