Vat meat? Fun! I don't think it will be a real vegetarian option any time soon, since most cell culture media contains horse serum, fetal bovine serum, and the like; the vat meat they mentioned in the article would be a highly processed meat product more akin to spam than faux-meat GimmeLean-type products. I'd imagine they actually end up killing more animals per food calorie produced this way than the old fashioned slaughterhouse way. If they find a way to produce this with a vegetable based feedstock I think I'd jump right on the pro-vatmeat bandwagon, though.
