Even with all the advances and regulations, the current meat industry is not without it's problems. It takes a surprising amount of resources, and some companies cut corners to save on expenses. However, meat is so delicious that it's hard to give up. So what's the solution? Artificial meat. At least in theory. In practice, it's a bit difficult to get the meat to grow like that, but we've definitely made some progress. Fictionland assumes we've overcome these hurdles or found some other workaround. Less realistic Artificial Meat can be made by way of Matter Replicators.

| - Even with all the advances and regulations, the current meat industry is not without it's problems. It takes a surprising amount of resources, and some companies cut corners to save on expenses. However, meat is so delicious that it's hard to give up. So what's the solution? Artificial meat. We actually have some ideas right now. Basically we take a cell culture and grow it into something edible. Since you don't need to raise animals, there's no question of inhuman treatment because what you're eaten never had a brain or consciousness. It likely isn't nearly as ecologically impacting given that the meat has far fewer bodily functions to maintain, also reducing the resource cost. At least in theory. In practice, it's a bit difficult to get the meat to grow like that, but we've definitely made some progress. Fictionland assumes we've overcome these hurdles or found some other workaround. Less realistic Artificial Meat can be made by way of Matter Replicators. One of the more Squicky implications of this is that you can get humanely cultivated flesh of sentient beings. Examples of Artificial Meat include:
