We’ve done SO much selective breeding to make our food hardier and more plentiful, that we now have so much that we’re complaining about it not being pretty enough, or that the tomato that grows three fruits a year is slightly less tasty than the plant that might produce one, or not.
Honestly, it’s a great time to be alive to eat stuff we couldn’t even imagine a century ago.
Agree - but i personally think there’s a huge qualitative difference between selective breeding over long periods of time – and then producing a fully artifical beef in a lab. One is a slow natural process with human intervention and the other is a fully synthetic process.
