Lab grown meat already exists. The same processes could easily make human meat without harming the human.

I’m fairly certain this will at some point lead to a social media fad of people trying, well, people. It seems like every possible stupid action has already been turned into one at this point https://eu.app.com/story/news/world/2024/03/07/what-is-tiktok-chroming-trend/72879475007/

Onlyfans creators already sell stuff like toenail clippings and bathwater https://kotaku.com/belle-delphine-onlyfans-paypal-pornhub-bath-water-1851491916

Wouldn’t be difficult to imagine people buying meat made of their favourite creator. What they do with it is between them and their god.

      Where are the infectious prions coming from if it is lab grown meat? There should be the same risks with any other lab grown meat then, because prions are not something special to only human meat.

      Long as we don’t lab grow brains for food we should be good on that front.

        Not necessarily, most of the known prions we associate with cannibalism are neurological, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t any that primarily affect other parts of the body that require proteins that aren’t infectiously badly folded.
