Meat From Scratch


By Stephen Ornes April 12, 2012

-"How would you like you meat sir?
-Medium to well done sir.
-How many stem cells would you like in it sir?
-As many as possible for it to be healthy.
- It will be here in more than a decade sir.
-I can wait....
-And it will probably cost more than your house sir.
-I have enough money to pay for it."

That is probably the script for Mark's Post's appearance on TV where he will eat the first hamburger made out of meat....but not. His new invention is a meat made out of animal cells and nutrients. This will be a revolution for our environment and the population not only of people but of animals too. It is really difficult to be a vegetarian, not eating meet because you think it is like a murder and they are right. This new invention will make us all in a way vegetarians since you will eat meet but not by killing it. Scientists will take some of the animal's blood, mix it with nutrients and let it grow at the lab. Since our Earth's population has increased dramatically making the animal population decrease this will change everything. Scientists are still working on it and they will have the first sample of this meat at October when Mark Post- its inventor- will try it. This model will be finished in a couple of decades and when it is going to be finishes it will be both hard to find and hard to buy since it will costs more than the average American house cost.


This is really cool. This is a true revolution of meat for us  humans. I think that they will finish it earlier since the first test is going to be at October which means only one month from now.
