    What’s the ruling on cheese? If I’m not allowed cheese I’m starting a revolution.

    Jokes aside if I tried to I don’t expect it would take much to overcome the mental barrier against eating them, provided they taste good and are not weird to chew.

      I expect that synthetic cheese based on actual casein (but made with bacteria etc. instead of mammals) will be fully market-ready and relatively affordable long before we get relatively affordable synthetic meat (the kind that’s the based on cow/pig/etc. cells). It’s mostly a homogenous mass, after all, which is a much smaller issue than getting the texture of steak right. IDK how affordable ‘relatively affordable’ is going to be, though.
