Lots of faux food products coming out these days from the Agribiz cartels.
Your link references another, Future Food with an article on cultured meats
http://www.futurefood.org/in-vitro-meat/index_en.php

Similiar subject to one that came out in Feb in Beef mag:
http://beefmagazine.com/mag/beef_testtube_meat/

To quote Jason Matheny, lead author of a paper on in vitro meat production
in a June 2006 issue of the scientific journal Tissue Engineering,..."When
people ask me if consumers will accept this kind of meat, I think, 'yes,
look at what they already accept.'"
