   I try synthetic salmon and enter the “uncanny valley” of taste

   Synthetic fish isn't quite there yet—and may not be worth the effort.

     This is insightful. I always go for organic but never an all plant-based products. I am not one ever interested also in cultivated meat or whatever.

     @arstechnica this is the dumbest Ars article I have ever read. I’ve been loving them lately but the ending to this one was literally a cliche carnist “I’m eating an extra burger for every one you don’t!”
     Not to mention the greenwashing of the seafood industry.

     @arstechnica not sure synthetic meat is there yet either.
     I keep trying them: they're doing amazing thing with the flavour, but as soon as I chew on it the illusion is gone and I just wanna spit it out.
