I had not heard of that one, but I do recall that melamine as used in plates, cups etc as well as bonding particle board, is made from urea and formaldehyde. I wonder where they get the urea?

Tescos has a special offer on at the moment with the "in-vitro" burgers.....buy 4 boxes and get a free surgical scalpel and bandage pack so you can remove the extra body parts that you start growing once you have ingested the burger!

Given the enormous environmental damage done to the planet by the meat industry I think vat grown meat is a good idea.

I did not realise, before reading background on this type of "meat" production, that the meat industry is responsible (http://www.independent.co.uk/environment/climate-change/study-claims-meat-creates-half-of-all-greenhouse-gases-1812909.html) for over 50% of the worldwide "Greenhouse Gas" emissions that lead to climate change.
That is in addition to all the hot air generated by bleating & whingeing large scale farmers complaining how hard done by they are, whilst claiming an ever increasing amount of grants and subsidies
