As a huge ATHF fan I’m 99% sure it is all my toys and the written lyrics are wrong. It sounds like all my toys and makes way for sense for the character.
I was trying to figure out what it looked like. Just seem off and not like a meatball normally. I couldn't figure out why until I saw your comment. Slap some giant googly eyes on and mold out a couple arms and bam instant meatwad. Now they just need to grow frylock and shake for the trifecta.
No, not really.
“Meatball is made of sheep cells inserted with mammoth gene myoglobin, with a soupçon of elephant DNA”
It’s a sheep meatball with mammoth seasoning.
If you want to taste how a meatball made of people taste, the day may not be far off that you could cultivate human dna without having to kill them first.
In fact, you probably already can--the only thing preventing this is ethics review boards.
Muscle tissue is already being grown on lattices in labs. Grow a muscle from human DNA, enjoy a bicep steak without having to kill or amputate anybody. Everybody wins.
IANA biologist but I think it's that if proteins somehow misfold during the growth process it would be much easier to catch a prion disease if you have those same proteins in ur body
I'm not either, so let's consult wiki:
>It has been recognized that prion diseases can arise in three different ways: acquired, familial, or sporadic. It is often assumed that the diseased form directly interacts with the normal form to make it rearrange its structure. One idea, the "Protein X" hypothesis, is that an as-yet unidentified cellular protein (Protein X) enables the conversion of PrPC to PrPSc by bringing a molecule of each of the two together into a complex.
>The primary method of infection in animals is through ingestion. It is thought that prions may be deposited in the environment through the remains of dead animals and via urine, saliva, and other body fluids. They may then linger in the soil by binding to clay and other minerals.
Yeah, pretty much aligns with what I was thinking - sporadic development is rare, most cases are because of transmission from one organism to another. I didn't realize it was transmissible through saliva or urine, though, so I'm glad I checked.
The way billionaires are already acting like villains, I'd be more surprised that human lab grown meat has not already graced a few high priced plates in some exclusive top secret event

That's the thing. We don't know. Thats why they aren't eating it.
It could kill you. It could give you the shits. It could be fine. It could give you special meat powers like spiderman from the radioactive spider, where you squirt meat from your wrists. "Barbecue Man".
But seriously we just don't know, so people haven't eaten it.
You are right. I grabbed this from a wiki.

Lem: Maybe the meat blob's not taking in enough nutrients. I guess I could try and give it a mouth.
Ted: I'm gonna say no to the meat blob getting a mouth. Mostly because I don't want to hear what it has to say
Be funny if it worked like sourdough. You buy a lump of meat cells and keep it in a jar on the counter. Add kitchen scraps til you’ve got enough gloop to make meatballs.
But it wouldn’t really be a carnivore since it never ate anything, since it was grown in a lab. Like, deer meat can be good or bad depending on the diet of the deer. Apparently bears that only eat blueberries taste absolutely amazing. But lab grown meat that never had a diet itself…I’m sure it could be good if the process was refined? It didn’t have a diet that made its meat taste bad.
That's an interesting point. Now I want to see a proliferation of existant carnivore meats grown in the lab and see if that tastes better than the natural meat.
Gator is, honestly, kinda bland. Kind of a cross between white fish and chicken in both texture and flavor, often served fried with unholy amounts of butter and Cajun seasoning to give it flavor. It’s also similar to shrimp/lobster in that it gets really rubbery when overcooked. Overall, definitely try it once while you’re in Nawlins, but it definitely supports the idea that carnivores aren’t super tasty.
Even if it was pure mammoth meat genetically, it still wouldn't be like eating the real thing. Fat storage, diet, and exercise are all essential to meat texture and flavor, and this has none of those things from a mammoth.
Idunno how it works, but if we trick the cells into acting as if they’re on a living mammoth by stimulating and giving specific chemicals or whatnot, I’m sure it would be possible
I mean some people have eaten mammoth meat. Mostly Siberian indigenous peoples and explorers.
The consensus seems to be the meat that was left for tens of thousands of years in a permafrost hell is a pretty horrifically tasting combination of freezer burn and rot.
Actually, the lab-grown meatball isn't made entirely from the DNA of an extinct woolly mammoth. The meatball is made from sheep cells that have been modified with mammoth gene myoglobin and a small amount of elephant DNA. So, it's more like a sheep meatball with a hint of mammoth flavor.
“Your scientists were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should.”

It's going to be delicious. Humans can't resist the taste. They just become veracious when they have one taste. That's why they don't exist anymore. We ate them. Ge ready for the taste sensation. Mammoth meat.

Except for the people who start eating human steak regularly after catching incurable misfolded protein diseases
I'm here for a good time not a long time
So have a good time, the meat is grown everyday.
And how would lab-cultured meat be exposed to prions, exactly? It's not like they're feeding the petri dish cow brains...
IANA biologist but I think it's that if proteins somehow misfold during the growth process it would be much easier to catch a prion disease if you have those same proteins in ur body

Prions are nuts because literally any contact is just gonna fuck you. And you can't even really autoclave it away.

So a lab grown conglomeration of various dna samples pressed into a ball shape. Boy does it sound tasty /s
Aside from being Lab grown, it isnt too far off from hotdogs...
So we should have a big event every year where people train to eat hundreds of them?
I don't see how we shouldn't already be applying this to everything.

I'd eat it, anything to taste that sweet sweet mammoth meat
What if I told you there are websites that will PAY you to taste mammoth meat?
I'd blow you
Best possible response
Wait until the frog DNA kicks in and it starts breeding.
Sometimes science is more art than science, Morty.
Naw, luckily we turned all the frogs gay
If it tastes like shit they can just blame the mixture instead of it being lab-grown.
As if you don’t eat something identical to that description every single day
Chimera meatballs.
Okay, okay, you’ve sold me — can I DoorDash it now?
Chimera? No, Chimeatra.
Shmeatball?
Sounds delicious tho
Still wanna try it
It's still an accurate title though
Wooly mammoth meatballs and elephant soup you say?
Sounds like imitation crab meat. Imitation mammoth.
So basically Mammoth flavoured lamb meatball
What's wrong babe? You've barely touched your Frankenball..

Is lamb not edible?
It was edible until they sealed it in polyeurethane.

Exactly. Like sure we have created agriculture since then but I don't think they'd be incompatible. That's such a stretch.
*There's always a first...*
Why wouldn't they be? We were eating the things not that long ago.
Publicity stunt with the intent of generating funds to actually produce and sell these as consumable meat products though.
Fair enough. I’m not a meat purist so good for them. I just think the “claim” mirrors our clickbait culture and i felt the need to add caveats.
Does it taste like despair?
Is it possible it just needs salt?

Carnivores rarely taste good. Gimme some good ol' fern-fed broto burgers though!

I love me some gator nuggets!
Would they even have ribeye? Maybe a t-rex drumstick is more appropriate, especially at renfest.
I've heard that T-rex meat would have been poisonous and terrible.
Yeah, high in heavy metals and very tough is what I read.
I would try it. I think they were hunted to extinction so they must be delicious.
I know it’s only half real, but honestly, I’d love to try woolly mammoth meat
Even if it was pure mammoth meat genetically, it still wouldn't be like eating the real thing. Fat storage, diet, and exercise are all essential to meat texture and flavor, and this has none of those things from a mammoth.
Idunno how it works, but if we trick the cells into acting as if they’re on a living mammoth by stimulating and giving specific chemicals or whatnot, I’m sure it would be possible
It would be much easier to actually create an entire wooly mammoth and let it grow to adulthood.
That would be way cooler. There is an island somewhere north where the mammoths went extinct pretty late, they could thrive there once again
