Yeah, but does it taste like chicken?
Tissue Engineering, which holds the promises for solving the ethical dilemmas of embryonic stem cell research and organ donation, may now also provide a solution to the ethical dilemma of animal slaughter -- humane mass production of meat reared not on the farm, but in the laboratory.
