If the animal isn't killed or harmed, then there is no ethical dilemma. As a vegetarian of 14 years, however, I still could not bring myself to eat meat regardless of how it was developed. I do agree that lab grown meat would not pose ethical problems unless the animal that the live cells are taken from is harmed.

I thought PETA didn't believe in killing and EATING animals. But they still would eat meat because it tastes good? Since technically, it's not wrong?

When ultra-pasteurization became the norm, suddenly thousands of people developed an intolerance for "dairy" products. Now the possibility that flash pasteurization causes intolerance is practically un-investigable, as too many companies have too much invested in keeping the status quo. Will this Frankenmeat cause similar problems? In the West we are currently suffering from an unprecedented epidemic of cancer. I find it hard to believe that unnatural foods are not--in part at least--to blame. Do we really want more lab crafted food substitutes?

If this actually catches on with the general population (not just the tiny percentage of it that's vegetarian), think of how much animal misery could be avoided!

Personally, I don't trust any food made in a lab or factory, especially meat. I'll stick to a vegetarian diet, thanks. This “meat” is still derived from live pig cells so how can Peta endorse it?

Lab-grown meat is unlikely to make a significant impact on health concerns. And it's been so many years since I've had it, I'm completely grossed out at the sight or smell of it, so I don't think I would bother either way. I'm happy with plants, myself.
