In an interview, this author asked Dr. Wang, about the foreseeable impacts/uses of this technique. “Ultimately,” said Wang, ” this is a new way of accelerating the evolution of the whole organism in a very directed fashion (i.e., controlled by scientist). This is going to be important in new cell based therapies, new cell based production of drugs, or, say, biofuels.”

For years I’ve been reading about the benefits of a vegetarian lifestyle. Beef production creates more CO2 than autos, factory farm conditions are unhealthy and awful, and veggies are healthier too! But let me be frank: I really really really like bacon. I can cut down on my meat intake, no problem! I only eat it with friends and relatives. But say good bye to succulent chicken breast, or slow-cooked BBQ ribs… forever? Well there’s only so much a girl can do, my friends.
So I suppose it’s not surprising that some people are looking for meat alternatives, and I’m not talking about Tofurkey. I’m talking about real meat, but minus the animal.
