You can lead a horticulture but you can't make her think. I hope the same remains true for the tissues they use in this plant.

Also, "meat plant" is an oxymoron.

Second definition of plant:

> n. a place where an industrial or manufacturing process takes place

In this sense a slaughterhouse or meat processing plant are indeed meat plants. For the primary definition, it also seems plausible to genetically engineer a plant to create animal proteins.

I believe your saying creation of tissues devoid of consciousness. Is that what you meant?
