Lab-grown meat is produced by culturing animal cells and could serve as an alternative to traditional livestock farming. Proponents argue that it can reduce environmental impact and animal suffering, and improve food security. Opponents argue that it may face public resistance and unknown long-term health effects.

Yes, as long as there is both wide agreement amongst independent research and health bodies that lab-grown meat is safe long-term for consumption and will reduce carbon emissions in total
@9R4QBMX9mos9MO
it depends, I would not eat it but some people might so as long as it is safe I would say within moderation.
@9Q7C6J310mos10MO
I believe that until the health risks and effects have been studied and are well known that the government should not allow the commercialization of lab-grown meat
@B2J775M3mos3MO
No, there is no way that the chemicals used to create lab-grown meat will have good long-term effects on our bodies. So let’s prioritize putting that money back into farmers and livestock to create healthy, free-range meat.
@B299V9W3mos3MO
NO. The human body is energetic and the non natural frequency of the meat will cause reactions/chronic illness/mental illness. if you understand homeostasis you will understand why this is a big NO. Mother Nature is healing while all man made frequencies is illness causing.
@B4CV7Q62wks2W
I think we need to study long term effects from the meat and that it should be shown very clearly on all packaging
@B48D94D3wks3W
Until we understand the long term effects of this meat and understand exactly how it affects the economy, agriculture, and ecology, it should not be public
@B3MY9V31mo1MO
It should at least be tested and checked by the government before allowing other people to purchase it from a supermarket.
@B3G8KHQ2mos2MO
WTF is lab grown meat and what have I been eating it!?! Does packaging currently not have to disclose its not real meat. This should be illegal I'm not going to sleep tonight.
@B3FFKSX2mos2MO
Yes, but there needs to be disclosure and the goal should be lower prices for consumers and reduction of animal slaughter.
@B36JLNR2mos2MO
I know there is already an option for that but I just want to make a clarification just in case: do more long term studies to ensure safety and then commercialize it.
@9ZSWYD95mos5MO
I think there will come a time where its necessary to start using lab made meats, but until then id rather eat real meat.
@9MLXWMN11mos11MO
Allow commercialization while ensuring enough safety checks have been done through CFIA. Any potential health risks must be made publicly available and the manufacturer's must display such risks on their labels.
@B2S72SX2mos2MO
I find fast food reatorants need this for fast and mass production, but it is not something that we should give in to for any adverse in this.
@9QSFSCC9mos9MO
Yes, but with proper regulation to ensure quality of nutrition is equivalent to naturally harvested meat.
@9QS4NW89mos9MO
Doesn't really matter, as this is a free country. If you want to commercialize something, you should. The fact that you even have to ask this question is ridiculous.
@9NVYVQF10mos10MO
Yes, provided that there is transparency about the nutrition/health effects
@9NZJ3SWNew Democratic10mos10MO
Yes, provided there is conclusive, independent research on the long-term health effects of consuming lab-grown meat.
@B2YXXYG2mos2MO
Absolutely not a good idea as all/any nutritional value would have to be added artificially, and we already know that artificial nutrition is damaging to our health.
