The big news here is if it’s considered parve, Jews who keep kosher can eat it with butter or cheese.
Don't they just look for loopholes anyway?
Like being "inside" a wire or not pushing buttons so someone else does it.
I'm sure any loophole people will take it
Oh interesting. What do you think about Muslims ? Would they be able to eat any and all cultured meat ?
Vegetarians and vegans too ?
Might be interesting.
What is cost.
I know less about what is considered halal or haram, but Muslims have no restrictions on meat and dairy being mixed though.
If they could make bacon though….. I think there’s a decent chance you could rightly argue it isn’t from a pig.
Similarly if Jews consider this to be parve (a vegetable), then presumably a cultured bacon or pig product would also be kosher. And they can finally realize the dream of a kosher bacon cheeseburger.
Could be a huge leap. Definitely something the whole world is invested in
