When Fake 'Super Meat' Is Better Than the Real Thing

More protein than beef, more iron than steak, more Omega-3 than salmon, more calcium than milk and more antioxidants than blueberries.

I love steaks... but... I think I would eat this "Super Meat" as well.

Finally someone with the right approach. You can't make everyone a vegetarian, but if you manage to reduce the meat consumption to a lower level you have a higher change of succeeding. Although I totally love meat, we should all eat less since it is sooooo bad for the environment. (but you won't hear any politician about this because there is to much money involved in selling meat)

This is terrible and it's based entirely on the flawed idea that meat consumption is bad for you and bad for the environment. Done properly, as Joel Salatin has done on his farm in Virginia (Polyface Farm), Cattle can be an asset to the Earth, and the nutrient content of meat can have tremendous health benefits. They didn't even say in this video what the "meat" was actually made of. Does it have fat? What plants were involved in it? This idea sounds dead on arrival. They're not even courteous enough to be up front about what it's made out of. At least with Tofu you know what you're getting.

It's not a matter of health(that's everyone's own way of life) but it is about the environment! And there is absolutely no way of denying it.You need about 15000 liter water to produce 1 kg of meat. Although the 'Polyface Farm' where you told about is a great initiative which a lot of farmers can learn from, its never going to be used in mass scale since the majority of meat production is to money driven. Don't get me wrong, if the meat production would be "done properly"(like you said) we would not have such a problem, sadly that's not the world we are living in

Yeah, I wish more people would adopt his model of farming. He seemed to say that it was perfectly scaleable, but that it would require more *people* working it.
