Why settle for the at least? when we can have the perfect one.

I think there are things beyond just craving, Y isn't it about eating the most healthy food?

If we care so much about "an animal being killed" then what to do to tigers and lions and other carnivores.

I think a lion eating a deer feels more natural than a man eating a lab grown thing.

Why this much push into loosing our nature? Apart from capitalism could there be any other reason?

I think it comes down to progress. Most of the meat we consume has a heavy toll on the environment. And with many other countries developing, gaining wealth and having the purchasing power to consume meat regularly, it's going to be a disaster. We innovate in so many respects, why can't we innovate with tasty, satisfying ways to consume proteins and fats that don't have the destructive nature that our current system has?
