Sure, the factory farms are so much more humane... NOT!

From the way that was written, it looks like they think that the
meat doesn't come from an animal because it was 'made at the store'.


I once had an idea - take a slice of meat that's still "living", put
it in some kind of nutrient solution, and just grow muscle and fat
tissue in big slabs, where you could just slice steaks off the end.

You could even leave the source animal alive!
