Lab grown meat already exists. The same processes could easily make human meat without harming the human.
I’m fairly certain this will at some point lead to a social media fad of people trying, well, people. It seems like every possible stupid action has already been turned into one at this point https://eu.app.com/story/news/world/2024/03/07/what-is-tiktok-chroming-trend/72879475007/
Onlyfans creators already sell stuff like toenail clippings and bathwater https://kotaku.com/belle-delphine-onlyfans-paypal-pornhub-bath-water-1851491916
Wouldn’t be difficult to imagine people buying meat made of their favourite creator. What they do with it is between them and their god.
“Do you really want to eat Bella Thorne’s ass? Well, for just $19.99 you can fry up a small part of it!”
What stuff was you on when you came up with this revelation?
I’d just had a cousin burger
A what
but most importantly, did you inject or snore
Asleep all night, snoring drugs.
Inject drugs by day, snore by night. All day.
deleted by creator
I feel like that will become illegal pretty quickly.
Probably, can’t imagine it being good for your health. But there may be a brief, highly profitable window.
So you kind of miss the obvious long term application in this scenario: buy a totally realistic dildo clone of my penis, buy a clone of my boobs etc. A step beyond meat but the more realistic application of this technology in the sex world.
I think they’ll be eating their favourite onlyfans creators, just not in the way you’re suggesting.
And how do you keep that from deteriorating and decaying? It would be meat after all and meat has the nasty property to get really bad in very short time without a living body attached to it keeping it fresh.
Well planned obsolescence is a good thing for the content maker - the customer has to buy it again if they like it. The ultimate DRM?
Okay, if you phrase it that way then it is a feature not a bug 🤔😄
Necrussy
Yea, I hit on that same thought later in another comment.
Pretty sure it would be considered cannibalism and made illegal
Prion City here we GOOOOOOOOO!
Where are the infectious prions coming from if it is lab grown meat? There should be the same risks with any other lab grown meat then, because prions are not something special to only human meat.
Long as we don’t lab grow brains for food we should be good on that front.
Not necessarily, most of the known prions we associate with cannibalism are neurological, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t any that primarily affect other parts of the body that require proteins that aren’t infectiously badly folded.
I’m pretty sure cannibalism is already legal in the United States. The problem is you can’t legally acquire human meat.
I don’t think cannibalism is illegal in many places, the problem with it is acquiring the meat.
There was that artist back in the early 2000s who made caviar from her own eggs.
This kind of concept is in Brandon Cronenbergs’ film Antiviral
I’d eat a Bell Delphine burger. I wouldn’t spend my own money on it, but I feel like that’d make for a fun story.
The problem is though is who tf would wanna do that (eat it)
the same people who bought the bath water, I guess
Armin Meiwes went vegetarian I just checked.
He was always very oddly into ethical consumption.
Very
I keep mixing up Armin Meiwes and Armin Meiwald. Really unfortunate coincidence that their names are so similar yet what they’re known for is so different.
He’s a children’s author, oof 😆
Slightly different life choices between the two.
Not only an author but the co-creator and original host of Die Sendung mit der Maus, Germany’s longest-running and most popular educational show for children.
People into vore are about to feast!
Maybe someone who understands science way better than me can answer this, but would it be possible to grow a whole human body using the meat growing process? If so, you could buy a living sex doll of your favourite celebrity.
What you are talking about is cloning yourself a rape slave. That is horrific.
No, that isn’t true at all.
I’d be totally happy if the “clone” was dead or completely non-sentient. Happier in fact.
Currently not. Lab grown meat is a more or less homogeneous mass of muscle fiber. A few years we could only make what is essentially minced meat, now we’re getting closer to entire steaks. Still far away from growing specific muscle groups, organs, bones and skin.
I mean i theory we can clone mammals, the problem is it would take a long while for your “buddy” to grow up to a usable size
The problem with cloning would also be that a clone of a human is a human with all rights and limitations, the “buddy” would be a slave.
Not after a lobotomy
Performing a lobotomy to a human sounds highly illegal in itself, but as far as I know are lobotomized humans still humans with all human rights.
Well, that’s fair enough, but i think we already abandoned legality of the whole operation at the “growing entire human body” part
I don’t think that there is a legal issue with that, as long as only a lifeless body is grown
Damn. Still incredible stuff though.
How about recreating genital tissue?
BONK
(You are aware that lab-grown meat is still meat and not an independent organism, right? It’s essentially dead and would rot within hours if kept at room temperature)
You’ve got to refrigerate it and keep it in the “Sta-Fresh” pack until ready for use.
