I’m not going to comment on this article. I’m only posting it because it’s apparently a real thing that actually happened. I don’t want to think about it. I don’t want to discuss it.
If you need me, I’m under my desk in the fetal position crying like a little girl.
LOOOOL Pink. Disturbing indeed.
My advice is don’t eat that shit.
That could actually be a pretty significant advancement for scenarios like humans traveling in deep space. Unless you want to breed cows in zero-g, you have to have your hamburger from somewhere; might as well be the hamburger you ate before that, and the hamburger you ate before that, and the hamburger you ate before that….
Judge Dredd, here we come:
“Be kind and peaceful to each other. Eat recycled food. It’s good for the environment and okay for you.”
Yeah, but I wonder how diminishing returns of nutrition work on that shit? The second or third time around, how much can it really even help you in an extremely closed biosphere like that?
McDonalds has been doing this for years. Go ahead, laugh.
I wish I could laugh about that. Unfortunately it’s way too likely to be true
The most amazing thing about this news is that I distinctly remember a Japanese scientist who developed a process to convert sewage into food in the 1980s. One great way to seem clever in science is to repeat what someone else did a decade or two earlier that no one remembers.
