The first burger created by lab-grown cells is about to be cooked in  
London on August 5th

Of course: this is likely the most expensive burger ever, but I assume  
that - if the technology is improved and adopted to a certain degree -  
the costs will fall below traditional meat production in the longterm.

This is related to a discussion from last year

This is just a short FYI; after all AFAIK a majority of pirates are  
interested in novel scientific applications, that may change the world  
as we know it.
