Scientist Asked: Is Eating Synthetic Human Flesh Cannibalism?

Gizmodo Asks: Is Eating Synthetic Human Flesh Cannibalism? The very thought of asking the question is sickening because I think we know what it means......

They want to feed this crap to us.


gizmodo.com...

hypothetically, what about synthetic human meat, grown without a genetic human donor? Even lab-grown animal meat hasn’t reached that goal yet. As of this summer, lab-grown beef still originates from “fetal bovine serum”—the blood of cow fetuses removed live from their slaughtered mothers and have their blood drained from their beating hearts until they die.

But imagine that lab-grown human calf muscle appears in a petri dish without involving a human fetus. Is consuming a synthetic human burger cannibalistic? Or does it become just a burger?

How can they do it without a genetic human donor?
Why are they even asking the question?
Very weird!!!

a reply to: infolurker

They should probably ask a moral philosophy professor.

A scientist wouldn't really have the answer.

@Is Eating Synthetic Human Flesh Cannibalism?

If you are human yes.

a reply to: infolurker

Oh get off of your moral high horse.

Flesh, is flesh. There is a taboo to it, because we don't like people eating the folks that we care about.


It is simply a taboo. And you're freaking out over it because of "cloned human flesh".

You're hilarious. Keep being you, REALLY

Though nature has thrown in some deterrents. Particularly eating the brains.

if you dont know its human meat is it cannibalism?
....asking for a friend

a reply to: dashen

I don't think so. Nor if your forced to. I think the ism would imply it's more a conscious decision.

This would make my dietary proclivities a lot less illegal.

a reply to: dashen

The humans ingesting the human meat unknowingly may not be, but the ones feeding humans to humans in secret are practicing cannibalism activity that may alter the unaware humans genetically and or mentally...

Sounds plausible

a reply to: infolurker

well if it's Synthetic and not made with any human flesh and or any thing related to a human, then it's not human flesh. it's imitation.

I like mine with lettuce and tomato
Heinz 57 and french fried potatoes
Big kosher pickle and a cold draft beer

Synthetic Burger in paradise

a reply to: hounddoghowlie

What if it came off synthetic humans?

Otherwise why is it synthetic human flesh?

a reply to: luthier

if it's not made from a human flesh even if a synthetic humans one it's not human.
