      Agreed, but the problem is butter is really nice. We something as good, or better, that doesn’t use so much land and water create so much CO2 (well CO2e).

        We already have butter free of animal products that tastes and functions just the same. It’s probably in your supermarket, no Bill Gates required. You don’t use it because you don’t particularly care about committing cruelty and violence to vulnerable individuals living in atrocity. I don’t use it because it’s still not good for you.

          Have used it actually, but it’s not as good. Also we know some dairy farming families and they aren’t torturing their herd. Though you are right, I don’t really care about the fate of them. As long as their isn’t real sadistic cruelty. In that instance, I worry more about what it says about the people.

          I’m far more interested in the environmental impact. I can’t seam to digest meat substitutes (even when they are meant to be coeliac safe). We make a point of restraining our beef consumption due to the environmental impact, as it’s the worse meat impact wise. I’d jump on lab meat and milk.
