Lab grown red meat is actually closer than you think. Factories are being set up around the world. My guess is that in around a year, two years tops, you'd be able to see some general availability.

Yeah and I can get impossible burgers at every store and burger king, but are they competitive with regular meat? I would say no, and the companies are struggling.

I think the majority of people won't buy animal-free meat unless it is both tastier and cheaper than beef. Most people care about animals but not enough to commit to blowing out their budget.
