Lab-grown meat may never be cost-competitive enough to displace traditional meat

On the other hand, meat doesn't really have much of a taste. It's more about the texture. If you forget to add spices to your meat, it tastes like nothing.

That's completely false. Even the most bland piece of meat has some taste.

I understand you don't eat chicken breast without spices or some sauce but most pieces of meat are pretty good as they are, especially if it has some fat.

Maybe if you grew up somewhere where spices are used a lot you can't enjoy food without them, but that doesn't make your comment true.

That's a truly bizarre assertion.

When I eat a good steak, I don't want spices on it, because I enjoy the taste of the meat.

Different meats have a wide range of flavour.

English is not my first language, with taste I meant to include flavor, texture, mouthfeel etc.

Meat tastes a lot, if you can't taste it then you have destroyed your taste buds with spices or something.
