The name aside. Diamond and cole are the same material too, the structure is the important thing. And I don't think that this artificial meat will ever form into a nice textured steak with the same taste and consistency. Thats the reason I only see two possible ways for this product. 1) Be a high priced meat replacement for people that years ago eaten the last piece of meat 2) Be a very low priced low quality meat replacement that is used instead of real meat for price reduction

I hope 2) will never happen.

I hope both will happen. What's your point? Poor people are getting less texture in the meat they can't otherwise afford? There are a lot of products where texture doesn't matter.

And it's an invalid assumption that cultured meat won't ever have the same or similar structure. They'll figure out how to grow connective tissue, even blood vessels.
