Sure! But it's 'less' than a dairy farm, which is why I wonder if there could be a middle ground. Also, I saw a new company makes lab-grown nuggets from proteins found in discard chicken feathers. That must be getting close enough to some Vegans considering it is acceptable. I have a friend who's a vegan who said they'd happily eat a steak if the cow fell onto a BBQ in such a way it cut a nice cut of sirloin that perfectly cooked, so there is definitely a tipping point somewhere of what's acceptable and what isn't. If the source cells are taken from an animal in a way a Vegan finds acceptable then surely all byproducts from that point on are okay.
