Normally I find the headlines overly reactionary to the real substance of the legislation or statement, so I dig into the source. This time, no, really, just banning cultivated meat: https://www.myfloridahouse.gov/Sections/Documents/loaddoc.aspx?FileName=_h0435__.docx&DocumentType=Bill&BillNumber=0435&Session=2024

These bills usually incorporate some kind of justification too – this has none. Completely baffling. Why _wouldn't_ you want a perfectly calibrated wagyu steak?

Just lost my reply… 

Anyway open to lab grown food as long as it doesn’t prevent access to traditional foods.  

But quality won’t compare for a while.
