Has anyone heard of the Invitro Meat Consortium?

It’s an organization dedicated to using stem cells to create lab grown meat products that look, feel, and taste like real animal flesh. How is this possible? Because it is real animal flesh, just without the animal. Sort of like a skin graft, but it’s a burger.

The development of this technology has the potential to finally end the long standing fued between red blooded meat eating Americans and the hippie dippie “You can’t cage animals, inject them with hormones and antibiotics, feed them high fat corn feed, and then shoot them in the head” crowd.

In fact PETA, the same organization that opposes mouse traps and bug zappers as cruelty to animals, has offered a $1 million dollar prize to the first person to successfully create lab grown chicken meat. Yes, even PETA craves the delicious taste of cooked flesh.

Charlie and I believe that it would bring us all great satisfaction if we start finding Cedarfest ’08 riot photos and Photoshop in famous people before the ELPD get a hold of them…that way the prosecutors would be completely confounded on how to explain to the jury that Al Gore was not necessarily at Cedarfest. Of course we’d probably be busted for obstructing justice and hauled away by MP5 toting police officers…
