Scientists Create Soggy Pork

(link to Telegraph)
Researchers in the Netherlands have successfully created 'soggy pork' in the laboratory. This is an exciting step towards the dream of being able to grow meat, bypassing all the hassle of eating meat from animals. Vegetarian groups have said they would eat artificially grown meat, and the ethical issues that plague the slaughter of animals do not apply. At this stage, we will have to settle for soggy pork, but researchers will surely experiment with different levels of firmness and types of meat.
