I doubt it. Unless lab grown meat manages to be a competitor, people are going to get meat based protein.

And have you seen the vast variety of food around the world made from meat?

It’s like saying people will give up excel. Possible, but only if some very major hurdles are crossed.

Otherwise ubiquity, biological, and cultural adaptation will win out.

The vegetarian side is underestimating the scope and time scale required.




maybe i'm mistaken, but i think the overall point was not specifically about meat.

just that more and more companies will align themselves with some specific viewpoint and require/impel their employees to do the same as a condition of working there.

i'm probably mistaken though :)


Hopefully those businesses will cease to exist due to market forces as artificially limiting talent available based on arbitrary preferences of management team would, I expect, reduce productivity and so increase labor costs.
