I don't really care if it's called salmon or not, but why is that gross?

It's gross because it's so misleading

Just so I'm following, you used gross in the food context but not to mean anything about a sensory or culinary experience (which would be the dominant connotation brought to mind by most people who read it), you meant it as kind of an ethical objection?
Also it's the mostly same ingredients that farmed salmon is already packaged with.

Which is exactly why I don’t buy farmed salmon.

The entire pitch for this product is that it's lab-grown salmon. Who are they misleading?

It’s lab-grown salmon…
I was not expecting salmon to be actually raised — that’s just farmed.
Cell cultures to create solids was everything I’d expected. The term “plant based ingredients” is kinda dumb though.
