Yeah but like, there's not even menus in medieval times which is the closest analogue to middle earth. Inns don't have menus.This is no rabble of mindless orcs. These are Uruk Hai
Saruman educated these carnivorous bois

Menus, as lists of prepared foods, have been discovered dating back to the Song dynasty in China.[1] In the larger cities of the time, merchants found a way to cater to busy customers who had little time or energy to prepare an evening meal. The variation in Chinese cuisine from different regions led caterers to create a list or menu for their patrons.
Yeah for sure, I'm not denying that they can't just so whatever they want. There's no way tolkein would randomly add in menus tho (and movie obvs wasn't written by him so moot pt).It's a fantasy world... if Tolkien wanted menus that's his choice.
If he wanted flying cars in his "medieval" world he could.
Song dynasty starts after middle ages start ( tho overlap). But either way:
The earliest European menus, several of which survive from 1751 onwards, appear to have been for the relatively intimate and informal soupers intimes ("intimate suppers") given by King Louis XV of France at the Château de Choisy for between 31 and 36 guests. Several seem to have been placed on the table, listing four courses, each with several dishes, plus dessert.[2]
If this works out does this put a bullet in lab grown meat development?
I don't understand though, does it somehow make the dangerous gasses not happen? Or are they just not released immediately and are going to be released when the animal dies later?
plant based meat use 1/10 of the energy and water that animal meat uses. Once the taste and texture is good enough animal meat won't be able to compete. I actually think plant based, not lab-grown meat is the thing to get excited about. There's a ton of research going into genetically modifying plants to produce better meat flavor.If this works out does this put a bullet in lab grown meat development?
What I'm about to say is half in jest, half serious, but if you think the protests right now in Hong Kong about democracy is bad, the protests that will happen about giving up meat will set the city on fire. Even quicker than climate change will.People will try anything and everything before giving up meat, huh
Really? Plant based solutions will be more expensive, and they're not even healthier than the current options. The Impossible Burger is higher in saturated fat and lower in protein to an old fashioned burger, and I can see the meat industry slamming against that particularly hard. Especially if, in order to get that much closer to the texture and taste (Because Impossible still isn't there) it would need to become even less healthy than it's current iteration.plant based meats use 1/10 of the energy and water that real meat uses. Once the taste and texture is good enough meat won't be able to compete.
While this is an amazing use of this GIF, sadly it does miss the point.
There is still the issue of the insane amount of water needed to raise a cow, the power use and emission of the entire industry and the land needed to allow cows to graze.
As stated before it is part of the solution but I'd hardly say that this allows meat back on the menu for me.
(Don't see this as a personal attack btw, just wanting to vent my thoughts in light of the train of thought that this would give meat eating thumbs up again)

I'd love to see something price competitive, flavor identical, and nutritionally on par with real meat within the next five years. It'd be a surprise, but a welcome one.impossible burger is like a prototype compared to what's coming.
Price is the one aspect where plant and lab grown meat will have all the advantages long term.
Yes we do.
You can't disagree with facts. Even ignoring the effect on climate change, producing meat requires too much water, land & resources & has a ton of other issues to be sustainable & sensible for the number of people that we currently have on the planet, let alone the few billion more people we are going to have in the near-ish future. As many people as possible need to abandon meat altogether and the rest need to limit its consumption to an absolute minimum.
LMAO

Yup. It will be impossible to have farm animals in the future. Sadly, people will eat meat until it's no longer possible to produce it. Even though they know the damage it does.As FondsNL said, beef is still very water intensive and water scarcity will be a thing once climate change ramps up.
Meat's still going to have to leave the menu in the future.
There's simply no way to reverse or eliminate most of the bad aspects of meat production, especially with the increasing population. Whatever improvements we make (like, bigger-yielding crops) will be offset by increasing population/increasing number of people starting to eat meat. Greenhouse gases & climate change isn't the only huge issue with it. Even if every cow stopped burbing and even if all phases of meat production from growing/handling crops that goes to feed them to storing meat became 100% powered by renewable, clean energy from this day forward, those issues would still remain.The only way we can combat climate change is by finding ways to reverse it and by finding ways to lower or eliminate the effects of our daily actions. You can't expect people to change their lifestyles to combat climate change, you have to make the lifestyle be less hazardous or create a way to dispel the hazards.
Sequel series about a Goblin chef, ala Ratatouille when??That the Uruk-hai know about menus indicates the existence of Orc or Goblin chefs/quartermasters who made menus to give the troops a choice of what they wanted to eat.
One wonders how high orcish civilization could climb if they weren't all murderous servants of the Dark Lord.
Woah

I mean meat is amazing, so yea.People will try anything and everything before giving up meat, huh

We don't need to give up meat.People will try anything and everything before giving up meat, huh
Or from Saruman who for sure had food made for him.Maybe an orc could have learned of a menu from whatever the middle earth equivalent of China could be.
Did you even read my post. I said climate change isn't the only issue with meat production. It pollutes our waterbodies, destroys our forests (and no, you can't just grow it back in a lot of cases after you've ruined the soil and wrecked the ecosystem/biodiversity) and requires a fuckton of energy in different phases of production, among other things. These things aren't going to go away even if they don't produce methane anymore.Invent ways to remove greenhouse gases, lab grown meat, genetically modified cows or feed it that seaweed to lessen the output of methane.
We could try switching to cannibalism. Would help with reigning in overpopulation too, and since presumably the old and feeble would be the first to get eaten, it would help in increasing average health and fix our problems with an ageing society too.
What a modest proposal, I like it.We could try switching to cannibalism. Would help with reigning in overpopulation too, and since presumably the old and feeble would be the first to get eaten, it would help in increasing average health and fix our problems with an ageing society too.
isn't one of the biggest issues with this that climate change is affecting seaweed growth and already a problem that is at risk for dying because of global warming?
