well, frankly, i'm a not-vegetarian who is trying to overcome her cravings and often losing. but whenever i start to think about the origins of what i'm eating, it helps me to get away from it. and lab-grown meat tissue pushes my Yuck Button just as much as the real thing, when i think about it.

yes, probably. having smelt the scent of my own flesh burning (wound cauterization), that would probably ick me out, too.

(i couldn't handle any form of pork for a while after that surgery)
