I think it could be a thing in the future and I would eat it given there wasn't some insanely complex and expensive process that made it pretty much unviable, and I do believe that in time it will happen. People that say it'll never work really underestimate human ingenuity and technology. Only 30-40 years ago the smart phone you hold on your hand would have been considered impossible. We now cure diseases that people used to just have to live with forever. We grow medicine using bacteria, using them to grow a steak doesn't seem so far fetched.

And the there's the argument of "why. We should all just eat plants." The thing is, why not? Why not research the technology? Who knows what it could lead to. How many major human advancements came from an accident or unintended result from trying to research something completely unrelated? The answer is a lot. A lot of them. So go ahead, grow a steak or whatever. Let me throw a bunch of grass into a vat and out pops a bunch of "ground beef." Do the science and learn shit. Personally, I'm hoping for more of a star trek type of food replicator. Make a super advanced 3d printer that just zaps atoms into the right formula to make me an omelet.

Like, I'm not gonna gatekeep the future. It's the future. Do the science and make cool shit. Make USEFUL shit. At least it could potentially feed people. Maybe it becomes the first step in a more advanced food replication technology. Maybe we figure out how to grow the perfect nutritionally balanced feed stock that then can be used to replicate any other food you could want. Who knows? So go for it. I mean, it's not like it's hurting anyone.
