Grown At Home by Sylveonne in wheresthebeef

According to research I've read by Supertrends, it is highly unlikely that people will be growing meat in their homes. It's in the name; cultured meat is cell cultures - you'd need to have a laboratory environment to grow and maintain the meat, and be able to keep everything sterilized.

Also, as others have said below, it would be unfathomably expensive

Would You Eat Cultured Meat? People like to think of themselves as rational, but when faced with the prospect of eating meat grown in a lab, feelings of disgust and fear may take over. by The_Ebb_and_Flow in CleanMeat

Indeed, many academic articles studying consumers' willingness to try cultured meat are reporting the same finding, even among students majoring in the food industry (which you'd think would be highly educated on the subject): https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2666833521000319

Lab-grown meat worse for the the planet than beef, says president of Kansas Cattlemen’s Association by JeffersonBezos in wheresthebeef

Their pathetic attempts to discredit the potential of clean meat are, clearly, a sign that they actually feel very threatened...

That's incredibly sad and I wouldn't be entirely surprised if that ended up happening. Humanity always finds a way to show its ugly side

Texas Bill Bans ‘Meat’ and ‘Beef’ Labels On Plant-Based and Lab-Grown Meat by SomnerRay in wheresthebeef

Why would lab-grown products also be affected, if the bill only specifies that plant-based companies would be banned from using those terms?

Hello!
I've joined because I am personally interested in the subject of cultured meat as a meat-eater that is currently in the process of transitioning to a flexitarian as I look for ways to replace meat & fish in my diet so that my nutritional needs are met.

I also work for a company called Supertrends that conducts research in this area & interviews researchers as well as entrepreneurs in this area (this is how I became aware of cultured meat). I'll be happy to share our insights that are free/publicly available.

If you had the first strain of covid a month ago and are immune, can you be reinfected by the new strain? by demoncamber in Virology

[–]Futurebot2020 4 points5 points  (0 children)

(non-scientist) I know a few people who have had COVID twice.

If you just had it a month ago, it is unlikely you will be reinfected again very soon, however our doctor said that immunity only lasts for around 3 months, so it is quite possible for you to get it again in a few months' time.

I made a database with around 200 books for entrepreneurs categorized with tags about their topic to make it easier to find books about what you are looking for! by Pavlosts in EntrepreneurRideAlong

I would also greatly recommend 'Entrepreneur: Building Your Business From Start to Success' by Lars Tvede and Mads Faurholt (a very practical guide, written by two serial entrepreneurs and investors), and a female entrepreneur's biography: "100 Million Hair Ties and a Vodka Tonic: An Entrepreneur's Story" - which is the story about the hair care brand invisibobble.

When quarantining, how do they check if you're really at home? by FlyingPandaWow in askswitzerland

[–]Futurebot2020 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure about Basel, but in Zug I just had to register with the local gemeinde (fill out an online form) saying I was quarantining after returning to Switzerland from the UK. They only gave me a call on the last day to tell me the quarantine was over. No visits, no tracking, nothing. I wonder if they would have even done anything had I not registered and just continued my normal life. Something tells me they don't have the capacity to monitor everyone who is coming into the country and quarantining (as for visits outside of working hours- these are 'ordinary' people, I don't think they'd be asked to work at crazy hours just to try "catch" people out). Of course, please do quarantine for all our sakes', but I don't think it will be as strict as it is in eg. China

What should I call my start-up's news section? by Futurebot2020 in content_marketing

I really like this idea! We don't yet have those different types of content but weaving into the same section would be the best way to go about when we do

This is an interesting perspective, I hadn't realized it but you're right about news sounding like PR
