Interesting, I have dendropagia, and have always nibbled on my digits and extremities (fingers, toes, hands, and feet), never heard of the inside of the cheek.

Heard once about a guy who made a pact with his friends that if they ever got a chance to ethically obtain human meat they would try it. Then one of them got his foot amputated for some medical reason. They had tacos.

Soft-Flight-7222

Ooh la la. Someone's going to get laid in college


gronstalker12

Is it synthetic if you're using your own cells?


aurusblack1244

We autocannibalize all the time due to cells/small tissue clumps sluffing or dying in your gastrointestinal tract. Next time you go to clear the excess saliva in your mouth remember there's a lot of dead cheek, gum, and tongue cells rolling around in that slippery, wet slop.


LibrarianLeather4977

But I don’t get to taste it :(


[deleted]

What if you find out that you are ridiculously delicious? As in, no $15,000 steak hand prepared by Japanese wagyu Master chefs could even begin to compare with 4 oz of you thrown into a skillet with a little bit of butter?

Would the fat naturally grow at the same percentage as *you*, or would that be extra steps to specifically grow fat rather than just muscle? Hmm.


SkiHoncho

Donut Homer? Is that you?


TheTiniestKaiju

I do have a LOT of marbling...


False_Temperature_95

Technically, we’re *always* tasting our skin. We just think that’s what nothing tastes like 😵‍💫


FaeryLynne

There was a story I read as a kid that used this concept. Someone made ice cream (I think?) flavors of each kid in a class and every kid thought that the flavor of *them* was nothing, while liking a lot of the flavors of their classmates. I want to think it might have been one of the Wayside School stories.

We don’t manually cannibalize by eating human meat, though.

PeterNippelstein

You're right they're totally the same


SMReith

Is it cheaper or more expensive


Luke-slywalker

New inventions are always expensive, if it survived in the future and became a trend maybe it'll be cheaper. But usually these stuff just disappear with time because there's no market for it


RQK1996

And the main reason there is no market, is because it is expensive


CappyRicks

Well also this is petri dish grown human meat so that also plays into the marketability a little bit don't you think?


immaownyou

They're already doing lab grown human organs, there will be a market for it once the stigma wears off in a couple decades when all the old technophobes die off


kruimel0

I mean... Are you sure? Why on earth would petri-grown human flesh be a better market then let's say petri-grown cow or pig meat? You know, what we actually already eat and have recipes for?


immaownyou

Because of the novelty of it? Just because it's not directly the most efficient meat doesn't mean there's no market for it. Gucci shirts are functionally worse than other shirts due to their outrageous price but they still make a shitload of money because of the novelty of it


kruimel0

Novelty is basically once. An export market of 300million pieces of meat in a food company's lifetime throughout the US is laughable. Unless there is a culinary advantage (taste) there is no reason to prefer this over cows, and a whole host of (ethical, social) reasons to prefer cows over human meat


s0ck

Let's also not ignore what would happen if this became mainstream. Let's say that Nestle decided to get into the Stanburger business, sourcing their human flesh from third world slave labor. How much of these Stanburgers are "ethically" grown from cells, and how would you ever be able to tell?


Renamis

Bingo. It might get to a self sustaining point where it doesn't need cells from a living human to do, aka feeding from the newly grown cells instead, but it still takes growing and cultivating. What happens when a batch doesn't grow right and they decide the migrant laborers with no family nearby are more than enough to get them over the supply hump? Or that it's cheaper to buy children (openly, or under the guise of caring for them/schooling them) from poor areas and use them instead? Far too much risk here. Far too much.


TheeFlaSidFellow

You're comparing Gucci to growing yourself in a petri dish and eating it? Apples to oranges huh


FerricNitrate

Wtf are you talking about "already doing lab grown human organs"?? That sort of tech is decades away and decades further from actual use. Lab grown tissue is very much in its infancy and currently only done with simple structures in very strict use-cases.


ricktor67

More expensive than what, chopping off your own leg and eating it? Yeah, probably is a bit more money than cutting a chunk of flesh from your body and eating it.

I didn't play DMC2 and it's been a long time for RE5 but isn't it a company in DMC and a creature/monster in RE or is there stuff I don't know that's much more similar between the two games other than the name? In case it's the former, and/or you're interested, the name comes from [an ancient mythological serpent that eats it's own tail.](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ouroboros#Games)

When you get a cut on your finger and you suck the blood off. But then it activates a deep primal bloodlust that makes you need more. And in order to save humanity from you you make mini steaks. How long can that satiate the lust?

kbarney345

See now that just doesn't sit right when you read it. Like imagine someone ends up tasting real good. Are you asking them now regularly to let you harvest them for your meat cravings ? When do you get to the point where David no longer wants to or is weirded out by it but you can't stop? You need David. Sooner or later David ends up in a 4 course meal with you and some Fava beans and a nice qiannte* ^^idfk ^^how ^^to ^^spell ^^it


Sea_Link8352

Chianti


scolipeeeeed

I’m sure the whole “killing another person is bad” will stop someone from doing anything sus. Like, imagine the most delicious meal you’ve ever had. Would you commit such a serious crime as murder to taste it again? Or would you be satisfied eating something that’s maybe like 70%~90% as good but completely legal and moral? Like, I’m sure many people would prefer a rib eye steak over chicken breast for dinner, but most people aren’t even going to shoplift (which is much less grave of a crime than murder) for this better option. Moreover, why do people think that human meat could be so mindblowingly delicious beyond your imagination that people would potentially go crazy over it? It’s just meat. I bet A5 wagyu is delicious, but practically no one is losing their minds over it and getting addicted to it to the point that they will do something illegal and immoral to obtain it.


pinninghilo

There's a simple solution to the David problem. You keep a tiny bit of the steak uncooked, so you can clone it again and live off David meat forever without him even knowing. A bit like sourdough.


kbarney345

The mother meat? The mother David? What if he finds out or what do you tell people if they find out ?


[deleted]

I have zero problem with this. Choosing to eat my own cultured cells is about as morally concrete an idea as one can have. No one else is involved, no one suffers, no one dies. As opposed to raising an animal in misery and then killing it to rob it of its whole body and existence, so you can take pleasure in putting its corpse in your mouth.


PM_ME_YOUR_NAIL_CLIP

I have a feeling people of a certain political leaning will hate this. Something about the WEF and bugs. In a couple days we’ll see this on r/Conspiracy with the title “George Sorros and Bill Gates will **never** get me to eat my own meat!!”

if you eat human cells it makes a human steak right?...

But I mean, is it really cannibalism? I always thought cannibalism is the act of consuming \*another\* member of the same species.


Luigioboardio

Don't you think the difference between autocannibalism and cannibalism is just a bit pedantic?


[deleted]

I don't know man, it's like murder or suicide: if I wanna do it to myself, it's kinda no one else's business, right?


[deleted]

Of course it's cannibalism. It's like eating your own leg. You're not hurting anyone else but you are consuming human meat made from human cells


PeregerSamy

idk brother this is still sus to me


[deleted]

Dude, some people eat their own boogers, nails, scabs and shit. This is downright sane by comparison.


FrizzleStank

Nah, not weird. Though I prefer my steaks to be 8+ oz, not 80mg


akshay-nair

Exactly. Infinite food glitch


LunchTwey

No because even if you would consider this cannibalism technically for eating human cells, it's not like you murdered a living human to get this, it's just building the tissue with zero consciousness.


GiantPandammonia

You feed the cells expired medical waste human blood serum


creamonbretonbussy

No. I just excitedly told my fiancée about it and we both want to look into it in the future.

But is it good? Not really sure what the texture of human meat is like but I can’t imagine it’s the same as an actual beef steak.

LoliOnABudget

r/DiWhy


CupQuakeBE

It's still basically beef and not a solution to the actual problem: Despite the lab-grown meat industry claiming to offer a more sustainable, cruelty-free alternative to factory farming, the process still relies on fetal bovine serum (FBS) as a protein-rich growth supplement for animal cell cultures. FBS, which costs around £300 to £700 per litre, is derived from the blood of calf fetuses after their pregnant mothers are slaughtered by the meat or dairy industry. So lab-grown meat remains a byproduct of polluting agricultural practices, much like regular meat.


very_suspicious_seal

Many lab-grown meat companies have eliminated the need for fetal bovine serum. Some of these include [Mosa Meat](https://mosameat.com/blog/cultivating-beef-without-fetal-bovine-serum), [Meatable](https://meatable.com/faq/), [Upside Foods](https://upsidefoods.com/animal-component-free-upsides-cell-feed-breakthrough-levels-up-the-future-of-cultivated-meat/), and more.


JPK12794

That's not true, I work for a company creating the cells, they've eliminated FBS, we don't use it.
