Lab meat is just a gross idea.

But banning it is also kinda gross. Doesn’t Florida have real problems to focus on?

And lightbulbs. They banned the cheap and effective lightbulbs that were four for a dollar and now it's about ten bucks for one less effective lightbulb.

They have made it so that it doesn't have to be disclosed. They fought against disclosure.

People have been trying to make that into law for GMOs, and those efforts have failed.

Corporate lawyers and lobbyists have been able to get our bureaucrats to protect GMOs and keep them hidden from consumers.

Good. Lab grown meat seems disgusting why would anyone wanna to consume that? imagine the GMO's and chemicals put in the meat.
That is exactly right, and they will have us eating Soylent Green if they can in a future godless dystopian world government.
Who knows, maybe we all need to move to FL, TX, or other properly and adult run state.

I eat vegan cows, pigs, deer, duck, goose, rabbit, etc....

I'm happy to assist in the vegan world, but not in the made up meat world.

Why should the Government tell people what they can and can’t eat? This is just another example of Republican Big Government.

No one is forcing anyone to eat lab grown meat, or bugs, for Gods sake. But if someone prefers to eat it, why shouldn’t they be able to?

Full disclosure and accurate labeling should be mandatory. Beyond that, what sense does it make to ban it?

Why should the government tell anyone what they can do, period?

You are one of those that agree with what the government tells you what to do, unless you disagree with what the government tells you what to do.

He’s quite clear it’s to protect cattle ranchers.

Why do cattle ranchers have more right to produce meat than companies that produce lab grown meat?
