Another reason not to eat ground-anything. One, it's harder to keep ground meat clean; you can't clean off the e-coli once it's been mixed in.

Now we won't be able to tell whether we're eating real or synthesized sausage.

I would be reluctant to eat synthesized meat because we probably don't understand (or manufacturers will ignore) the entire relationship between a) the result of the complex process of growing meat on an active bone that's running around, and b) how our bodies evolved to process and benefit from exactly that configuration of protein, nutrients and composition.




We'll just have to see how your diet compares to my lab meat, multi-vitamin, Metamucil, acai berry extract, and Slim Fast diet.


Actually, one way to tell animal- from vat-meat will be to check for E. coli itself.
