China is making impressive progress with this. I don't think it should be forced on people, but I think we should all be excited about the possibility of constructed meat that tastes the same as meat from animals.

My question is wouldn't lab meat be very tender without bones to yank on and build mass? The toughness of steak is determined with the activity level of the animal.
