That's just basically something that re-hydrates food that's been dehydrated, right?

From the radio address by King George VI, given to the people of the British Empire on December 25, 1939, when things were starting to go badly:
".....and I said to the man who stood at the gate of the year, 'Give me a light so that I may tread safely into the unknown.'
"And he replied, 'Go out into the darkness and put your hand into the Hand of God. That shall be to you better than a light and safer than a known way'....."

No, read the article. It uses a base of muscle and some other stuff to make it "grow". My question IS: where do they get the "base" ingredients from?? They HAVE to come from SOME animal. What do we do if this catches on and we have a plethora of animals, overpopulating each country?? |

"You mean to say that when an imbecile walks into a church, office, day care center, or school, stumbling about, almost zombie-like, with gun-filled hands at his side, blabbering incoherently to his next victim, the reaction of grown men and women is to run, cry, whimper, and hide under a desk or pew? The sheeping of America is nearly complete."
"How many more times are we going to cower under tables and chairs, whimpering like mindless dogs, thinking that someone else has the responsibility to save and protect us?"

There was a story about an attempt to grow meat this way, but the pieces grown were just mush. Evidently, they were trying to find a way to "exercise" the meat to imitate actual muscle fibers and structure. As with the thread on vegetarian meat, I think I'll stick to the real thing. |

“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”
