From the current BusinessWeek, Craig Venter summarizes motherless meat well:
"The least efficient thing we do is feed cows grass, corn, water, to produce steaks. It’s not sustainable. I think technology can replace meat from animals. I have a name for our enterprise. It’s called “motherless meat” because vegans have a rule that if it has a mother, they won’t eat it. If we can take the genes that produce meat proteins, take the fat from algae cells, we think we can make healthy meat. It will taste more like meat, and you eliminate the cows and all the processes that we do. I like good steaks, but I like lots of things that aren’t sustainable."
And let’s not forget the classic…
"I prefer to use my hands. I believe people have lost their relationship with food. They do not think ‘this is something that died for me so that I would not go hungry.’ I like that connection with something you die for. I appreciate it more." — Hostel
