Pressed meat, even 3D, is still meat.

One wonders these days whether someone might use AI voice emulation on recordings to frame people.

The CEO of Campbell’s could address this very eloquently and turn it around 180 Degrees.

He can easily deny the most ridiculous claims, for example, about using 3D printed meat. He can also address food safety and cite provable statistics.

And in the end, as for being “food for poor people” - he can say “Yes, we always want produce economically priced products for average and working-class Americans. These are our customers, neighbors and family - and we are proud to serve them.”

Can meat be made in a 3-D machine. I’m poor and inquiring minds want to know. Oh yeah! Asking for a friend. I only eat road kill. Happy Thanksgiving to whoever ran over my turkey. 😁

It's reached the point that it is impossible to tell.

This "gospel singer" was a complete creation of AI; autonomously created the character, the music videos, wrote the songs, everything.

For poor people?

In my experience, Campbell’s soup is more expensive than most other soups.

“Pressed meat, even 3D, is still meat.”

Certainly better than 2D meat, which has no ‘substance’.

That’s true. The smart thing for the company to do would be to embrace that notion, which is Campbell Soups are primarily made to help low to middle income families give a balanced meal everyday of the week, and for a low price.

Campbell's Soup is not exactly cheap, far from it. I doubt many poor folks buy it.

Roadkill is tenderized once it’s been ran over a few times. Just saying.

There’s nothing wrong with Campbell soups!

Yeah you can make better homemade well that’s true for almost everything.

Mushroom soup and tomato soup are the base for so many delicious things!

Tourist: Yes I quite agree I mean what's the point of being treated like sheep. What's the point of going abroad if you're just another tourist carted around in buses surrounded by sweaty mindless oafs from Kettering and Coventry in their cloth caps and their cardigans and their transistor radios and their Sunday Mirrors, complaining about the tea - "Oh they don't make it properly here, do they, not like at home" - and stopping at Majorcan bodegas selling fish and chips and Watney's Red Barrel and calamari's and two veg and sitting in their cotton frocks squirting Timothy White's sun cream all over their puffy raw swollen purulent flesh 'cos they "overdid it on the first day."

Bounder: (agreeing patiently) Yes absolutely, yes I quite agree...

Tourist: And being herded into endless Hotel Miramars and Bellvueses and Continentales with their modern international luxury roomettes and draught Red Barrel and swimming pools full of fat German businessmen pretending they're acrobats forming pyramids and frightening the children and barging into queues and if you're not at your table spot on seven you miss the bowl of Campbell's Cream of Mushroom soup, the first item on the menu of International Cuisine, and every Thursday night the hotel has a bloody cabaret in the bar, featuring a tiny emaciated dago with nine-inch hips and some bloated fat tart with her hair brylcreemed down and a big arse presenting Flamenco for Foreigners.
