Will vegetarians eat pork fat if it's cultivated in vats, 100% cruelty free, and used to lend juiciness and mouthfeel to otherwise plant-based foods? And will omnivores care enough to pay more?

This pig's bacon was delicious. But she’s alive and well.

Mission Barns is cultivating pork fat in bioreactors and turning it into meatballs and other products. Honestly, they're pretty darn good.

@troutgirlJoyce Park I'm a vegetarian, and I would!

Though notably, it might actually be less good for me if these products hit the market. By becoming vegetarian, which was for ethical reasons not dietary reasons, I seemed to have completely skipped several health issues that run in my family, including high cholesterol, which I don't have at all.

I generally argue for being vegetarian on ethical, not dietary, grounds. And thus I'd have no problem with it! But maybe it wouldn't be good for me...
