Will Meatless Meat Be The Future Of Food?

More and more plant-based meat alternatives are entering the market, and one of them is made by New Wave Foods. New Wave has been working on a shrimp substitute that's made entirely from plant and algae products. The company was founded by two scientists, Dominique Barnes and Michelle Wolf, who wanted to come up with a more sustainable alternative to shrimp farming. Shrimp farms across Asia often destroy mangrove forests and wetland ecosystems - a high price to pay for the number one eaten seafood in the U.S. The average American consumes 4 pounds of shrimp per year - adding to a total of 1.3 billion pounds consumed annually. New Wave's plant-based shrimp looks a lot like the real thing, and even has the texture and taste of shrimp, with similar fat and protein content, but no cholesterol. Join the Seeker community!

I like meat. Won't stop eating meat. You make synthetic meat through whatever means, that tastes as good or better.
Then I'm fucking down. Glory to Science! -
I bet that when these food are sold to the public, it will be twice as expensive as the normal meat ones
-
this is awesome! now if only i could eat these in my area lol
-
I need the protein in my food so I eat meat and I am already overly sensitive (meaning no apalaptic shock) to chocolate, cow milk, crustaceans, pig meat and nuts. so I would love things like these to eat with a smaller environmental impact
-
nature vs science ...
come on people have you gone crazy ? -
chemical feeding
-
This stuff is amazing. straight up
-
Yum!! I'm vegan now, and I sorta miss shrimp sometimes. I'd be alll over those!
-
I'd try it. If you can get the nutritional value, flavor, and texture right on top of making it healthier and, of course, make it affordable I'd be stupid NOT to eat it. We should be pouring money into researching this. Efficient production of meat without all the mess and waste? Sounds like gold to me.

I like this idea and I hope it works but what happens with the farm animals? If we replace the meat from them would they animals overpopulate? They have before in Europe. I'm for this to replace seafood to make the ocean animals thrive. But seriously would livestock overpopulate if we used this for all types of meat?

1:58 she fucking searched google for an image just so that she would seem smarter
-
I am loving this so much, can't come soon enough!
-
What the heck kind of journalism is this? didn't bother to do a price comparison between the real and faux product or what the difference is between a GMO & this
-
I would love that to be in my local grocery
-
Replicators are coming guys.
-
I can already here the army lobbyists marching on congress to get these products banned in the US.
-
Love this, I will totally try this shrimp and once cultured meat becomes more available I'll try that too
-
I cannot wait until lab-grown meat becomes widespread. It gives the future hope.
-
The only way they could market this is if it was cheaper than real meat
-
Nope, I'm not interested in eating meat alternatives, we didn't crawl out of the caves to eat grass.
