Almost everything in terms of food nowadays comes in the processed form. We see them in supermarkets, packaged in microwavable containers. Well, I guess that is still better because they come from naturally-grown plants and animals. But if you were presented with meat that did not come from a naturally-grown animal would you eat it? How about a “test-tube grown” type of meat? Maybe it won’t be long now before you get to taste it. PETA or People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals is dangling prize money amounting to $1 million for the first person to develop a process to manufacture large amount of “in vitro meat” by 2012.

Frankly, I’m against this idea. Some animals are created to serve as food for the people, right? That has been the way ever since the world began, so why change that?

I am an animal lover and I hate to see animals being cruelly treated. But this new announcement from PETA is too much if I may say so. Like I said, some domesticated animals are meant to be eaten so that balance in nature will be maintained. Maybe for these radical PETA activists it’s better to just let animals become extinct rather than let them suffer.

If you were asked, would you eat lab-grown meat? Yes or No?
