Pentagon Wants to Feed Troops ‘Experimental’ Lab-Grown Meat to ‘Reduce CO2 Footprint’
Free Beacon ^ | June 13 | Adam Kredo

A Pentagon-funded company is seeking proposals to feed America’s soldiers lab-grown meat in a bid to "reduce the CO2 footprint" at Defense Department outposts.

BioMADE, a public-private company that has received more than $500 million in funding from the Defense Department, announced earlier this month that it is seeking proposals to develop "innovations in food production that reduce the CO2 footprint of food production at ... DoD operational environments," according to an online announcement.

These include "novel cell culture methods suitable for the production of cultivated meat/protein," or lab-grown meat, a product that is still in its experimental phases. This type of meat is grown in a lab from animal cells with the aid of other chemicals, and has emerged as a flashpoint in debates about the efficacy and morality of manufacturing meat products without slaughtering animals.

And maybe instead of arms involving gunpowder, they can just resort to knives and clubs.

Our military should not be an experimental lab.

The deep state has no use for the military, other than to use them as canon fodder or lab rats.

The idiots want to eliminate CO2 so all the plants on earth will die...That would eliminate oxygen so all the people and animals would die...

Then the idiot liberal “environmentalists” would have the planet they desire....

I thoroughly agree with this. But it should start with the Commander & Chief, all members of the DOD, then to the Pentagon and on down the line from there. After all they are the leaders, let them lead.
