In vitro meat, also called cultured meat, cruelty-free meat, shmeat, and test-tube meat, is an animal-flesh product that has never been part of a living animal with exception of the fetal calf serum taken from a slaughtered cow. In the 21st century, several research projects have worked on in vitro meat in the laboratory.[1] The first in vitro beefburger, created by a Dutch team, was eaten at a demonstration for the press in London in August 2013.[2] There remain difficulties to be overcome before in vitro meat becomes commercially available.[3] Cultured meat is prohibitively expensive, but it is expected that the cost could be reduced to compete with that of conventionally obtained meat as technology improves.[4][5] In vitro meat is also an ethical issue. Some argue that it is less objectionable than traditionally obtained meat because it doesn't involve killing and reduces the risk of animal cruelty, while others disagree with eating meat that has not developed naturally.
Vegetable factories are buildings in which they grow vegetables while artificially controlling the light, temperature, humidity and nutrients with computers. Some of them open their roofs to use natural sunlight, but what is attracting attention in Japan are those in which artificial lights, such as fluorescent lamps and light-emitting diodes (LEDs), are used instead of sunlight in a totally closed environment. Instead of soil, water in which nutrients are added is used to grow vegetables. As this method is not influenced by sunshine hours or temperature, it can grow plants all year round regardless of the season or location. Because vegetables are grown indoors, they are free from diseases, insects and weeds. So, a big advantage of this method is that it does not use agricultural chemicals and can produce vegetables safe to eat. Recently, studies are being made to grow more nutritious vegetables by, for example, controlling the wavelength of LED lighting.

Mock if you want. We live in the middle of wheat country that helps supply the world. My husband and our friends come from generations of wheat farmers. If you knew the patterns needed to grow wheat, you would be afraid, especially if you have children.

This is the sign I have been looking for. I just thought I would try to warn others.
This Pope is the 12th pope as prophesied by St. Malachy. The church knows it and is now trying to redeem the world with a real Jesus like pope. But, it is probably too late.
I don't think my country will have a hard time with all the suffering because we have come to love only the thing created by man, money.edit on 3/31/2014 by semperfortis because: corrected all caps

Thank you. It was really scary for me to do this because I knew people would think I am crazy.
I really hope I am wrong, I adore my grandchildren. But this is FOOD.
The only ally we will have is Israel.
This new pope is TOO different, trying to bring back the true teachings of Jesus.
