Except that the artificial meat substitutes we have right now, eg those fake burgers, aren't exactly better. They are worse than the meat they replace. Its not ethical or moral its just the market moving.

The vegetarian farming isn't more ethical either. Its usually mono-cropping at large scale. see also: corn.

If you want to improve a situation, at first you will make slow progress. But I'm willing to bet on artificial meat being an engineering problem and ultimately becoming better than the real thing.

My thing is the amount of processing involved. How much artificial junk is in there? Is it actually seen as food?

These aren't trivial questions. The food industry has a habit of lacing processed food with so much junk its barely recognisable.
