We cows take offense to the characterization of us as "big dumb [and] dirty". :P
In a more serious response, though, I guess it would depend on how well they pulled it off. I mean, if it actually tasted like meat and had the texture of meat, as well as the Good Things nutritionally (i.e. it didn't have the nutritional value of, say, ramen or the other artificially created substances out there for consumption), I'd be all in favor of it.
And yeah, it's a nice resolution to the dilemma of eating-meat-versus-ethics. Until someone decides that lab meat is alive dammit and we're all evil for eating it and blah blah blah, anyway.
