Enjoy your side of kuru! It’s the gift that waits to give, but once it starts, it never stops!

I mean, it’s probably less likely to happen, but it is a prison disease, which means it can kind of just suddenly happen if a protein folds the wrong way (if I’m not misreading the internet wrong about it)
Though it seems like you’re relatively safe if you stay away from brain tissue, so I guess you’re probably fine.
Still, I’ll just ask you what it tastes like before I’d try it myself haha
I can see someone submitting a DNA sample to Ancestry and watching the horror/drama unfold.
What would be worse - finding out the sample came from a missing person, or someone who never offered the donation?
This was the Mormon agenda all along.
I could see people from onlyfans auctioning their meats. It’s the only natural progression of lab-grown meat industry.
If this happens, I predict there will be at least one serial killer (or intended serial killer if they are caught before making it to the minimum) that will start there but then will become obsessed with the idea of eating the real thing and will make it happen, starting with some randoms and eventually going for the OF whose meat started it for them.
The dildo industry in general is gonna be filled with even more realism.
Clone a Willie will be a much different product.
I hate that you’re right about this
Holy fucking hell, that’s a non-chalant way to express a horror movie setting. It sounds like something out of Hellraiser.
Hellraiser 10: The Fundraiser
That’s fucked up… (I wonder how much money I can get for my meat)
Is it really cannibalism if the meat wasn’t actually from a person? 🤔
Regarding your username, if you log into lemmy with normal characters, does it let you or do you have to use the emoji letters every time?
It’s just the display name. Usernames can’t use special characters.
The emoji letters are just a display name. The actual username, which you log in with, uses normal characters.
They say you are what you eat, so you eat what you are. Therefore you are a cannibal
I told my friends that if this happens I would want to taste it.
I am still hearing about it…and I think I will hear about for a looong time.
Regular cannibalism is ethical, it just depends on who you eat
I use all parts of the animal :)
Terrifying
I mean, if you think about it, up to the advent of vat meat, the only truly vegan many meat was human meat, because only humans can grant consent.
eh, tofu and seitan has been a thing in asia since time immemorial
Tofu and seitan isn’t meat
Name checks out?
Then I eat it
Prion disease is for you!
Sounds like it’s a personal choice.
not for the person I’m eating, but yeah
Technically, I guess.
Unfortunately, we still seem to be very far away from it replacing our usual way of growing meat: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V0zCf4Yup34

‘The Ophiuchi Hotline,’ by John Varley. A food engineer is sentenced to death after the authorities discover that her ‘banana meat’ tree has human DNA. Great read.
I am what I eat.
In Arthur C Clark’s 1964 short story “Food of the Gods” a synthetic- meat company came out with a very tasty and great-selling product. Turns out it’s cultured human tissue.
There’s also the film Soylent Green (1973), though that isn’t lab-grown human tissue
Could I grow my own meat and then tell people to eat me?
🤢🤮
Eating ass, but now literally
I would absolutely eat my beautiful calf muscle, dry rub
Yummy
100% I can imagine it becoming a fad for couples to eat lab grown versions of each other’s genitals.
