Dodo birds went extinct for a reason, Galápagos tortoises are almost there too.
I reckon they must be delicious, cultivated meat is likely the only way we’re ever going to find out what the big deal is. If we can find out without slaughtering an animal then I can see no downsides.
I get the point, but, well… Have you tried bread!? It’s pretty bloody awesome and amazingly versatile! Pickled cabbage is alright, but BREAD! Come on! Discounting ethical considerations, I would 100% choose bread over meat any day.
Side note: apparently ships could keep a Galápagos tortoise unfed and unwatered in their holds for up to 6 months before they slaughtered them for food. This sounds like a truly torturous death, but from a practical view this would certainly explain why they are now endangered.
I have a feeling they didn’t exactly have the quality of ingredients we had now too. Also I’m sure it had to have less water to keep longer, thus being harder in the first place.
Have you ever tried hard tack? Even just researching a couple images and reading how it’s made shows pretty immediately that it’s not that similar to tasty, regular bread.
Some companies (e.g. Vow) are focusing on producing niche deluxe products that are generally unavailable to the public. Dodo is one of the animals that are considered in cultivated meat because then they won’t be directly competing with the traditional meat industry.
They have already made a mammoth burger (sort of).

Anything is delicious if all you ate was bread and pickled cabbage on long voyages.

Fresh bread is amazing… but year old stale bread… not so much.

Bakeries exist for a reason after all

Wait a minute, what do dodos have to do with this??
