Do you consider lab grown meat vegan?

[Chronobyte]

I'd like to hear your opinion on it, whether you are vegan, non-vegan, pro vegan, anti vegan etc. All input counts.

I'll start:
In my opinion lab grown meat is in fact vegan. While yes, it's undeniable that it's meat, it was made without harming animals, which is one of things veganism goes for.

Single meat cells are still living creatures. And they're still dying for you.

[Chaosolous]

I mean, by definition no.

[hai, how are you :)]

this is outrageous. OP is asking if it's okay to do the crime and not do the time.
If op got his way then there'd be less of a reason to be vegan.

This is much like asking if it's okay to rape female robots when they become mainstream in production (who look exactly like females). If you say yes, then what does that say about the man behind the action? If the robot clearly said no and the man went ahead and did it anyway, then that would indicate anti-social behaviour.

Same thing here, a lot of vegans are opposed to the evil taste of meat, it's the taste of carnage and it invokes a lot of historical animal abuse (regardless of the future).

So no, in some ways it's not vegan, because you're still enjoying the taste of meat. The most moral choice is to control yourself and just eat plants.

I don't consider it food. How can it be vegan, or anything else?

Do you consider blackboard chalk to be vegan?

Only if it's rabbit meat.

i my self am an vegetarian and it hink taht moast vegetarians and vegans wont usualy like to eat something really meat-like or meat it self (farmed or lab grown)

also produceing lab-grown meat is really difucult. just imagine trying to feed the whole wolrd meat consuption with a few giant perie dishes. the calls coud just die or get a disase. they coud not get enougth oxygen and so on a nd so on, basicaly without some game-breaking technology produceing lab grown meat at comercial scale is really difucult and aexpencive.

I love meat and I still wouldn't eat it.

[AlienTestosterone]

No, I'm good.

old school veggie burgers made of beans seem healthier and more natural

[AustrAlien2010]

Ask Donald. Its a coined word. Its his word. Only he can tell you, because its his word.
"Donald Watson, founder of the Vegan Society, coined the word vegan in 1944 as a statement against vegetarians who ate dairy products. He took the first and last letters of the word vegetarian to create his orthodox version of vegetarianism."

[Swarmfly]

So is concrete.

they're not, lead is a part of the bean industrial process. most of the fillers are either coated in it or have the native lead in the plant itself embedded and made bioavailable by a filler.

that's before you even think about packaging or quality control.

[AustrAlien2010]

Vegetate is to grow or sprout as a plant does. And a plant cell is different than an animal cell. It also grows differently.

So I do not think its vegan. At least not if you take into account the etymology of the word.

i am not a vegan or a vegetarian

but i eat, have eaten, a lot beans with my meals over the years

i have never heard anything like this

i am not suffering from any kind of heavy metal poisoning that i know of

nor can i find anything that says anything about it

could you please link something i can read about it?

op

vegans do not eat meat

not just because of cruelty to animals

but because they do not eat the flesh of animals

no matter how you put it, that is what this is

a small part of the animal is taken and then grown independently of it

they also do not use the milk from animals,

even though it is easy to get in a way that does not harm the animal
