Table eleven:
- 1 Roasted lamb leg, rare, with sauces
- 1 Fried crabs with garlic and herbs
- 1 Algae salad
- 3 Mixed salads (in one plate)
- 1 Rabbit
- 3/4 of litre of 10% Bull-pheasant blood wine
- Unlimited quantity of water (??)
- Crete olive oil, Liguria olive oil,... (endless list of oils but none available)
- French strong mustard, local vinegar,... (endless list of weird salad condiments)
- Eye snack
The lamb leg and the eye snack are made of vat-grown cloned meat, as the technology in this world is advanced enough to grow very good tasting meat that way. It is usually cheaper and more ethical than actual animal meat, which is still legal although usually considered luxury food. The eyes are very hard to grow and slightly expensive, and they don't fit very well the purposes of vat-grown meat, but since they were actually the first vat-grown meat produced in order to impress the general public they are still a very popular pick in many restaurants. Especially since the introduction of many specie sof carnivorous anthros...

I have to wonder...once we have the ability to easily grow any kind of flesh we want in a vat, will we totally lose touch with nature? When farming becomes an industrial process, there's no longer an enviroment--merely sprawl. And if any species can be cloned and recreated at a moment's notice, how long before we just put things away on genetic file and let it go extinct?
Sorry for the ramble. Its great art.

Thank you. I'd give it a chance though. Today's breeding of animals for slaughtering is nowhere near natural, and as intensive farming is one of the most devastating human activities for the environment I doubt that anything would be worse than it.
Also the human mind follows weird paths... once vat growing becomes viable people might end up tasting meat of rare and unusual animals they'd have never heard or known of in the age of cow-pig-chicken only, knowing more about them at the end of day...
Also I doubt that vat grown meat will ever be more flavorless and obnoxious than the "regular" synthetic meat used in most fast foods today. :-]

I agree in so many ways here. And would add that there are more ways to experience nature than just farming. (understated)
However, I'd also suggest that an animal's flavor is fairly irrelevant in understanding and knowing any animal.
Regardless, quite an entertaining picture.

L'immagine in sé è spettacolare (poi, con quella visuale mi ricorda vagamente un luogo delle mie parti, lungo la riviera...). Ovviamente, il mio preferito è quello al centro, fosse anche solo perché, finalmente, quello è un *Delfino*, e non il tipico tursiope che tutti disegnano perché han visto "Flipper..."
Un dubbio: ma cosa c'è nella vaschetta accanto al corvo? Non mi pare di riconoscerlo nel "conto" che hai incluso nella descrizione...
P.S.
Il corvo (o è una gazza?) è bellissimo.

Ah, ma quello è il coniglio! :-]
