It is meat. Living muscle cells are extracted from real animals, but then multiplied and grown in the lab.
In medicine something similar is done with human tissue. You take a small bit of cartilage from the knee, grow it in the lab, and use it to fix that person's knee. Of course, this was always very expensive, so the use for food is now decades later.

I’ll never eat that

I don’t want to eat anything that was created by a bunch of lab chemicals
I would if the price was cheaper and the quality was similar. It could be useful for burgers and sausages.
Id rather be vegetarian and grow my own food than eat that crap
Yeah if it tastes okay there's no reason not to and at least they didn't kill an animal to get it. I approve of that.
So it's basically a cancer tumor?
Pretty much. Eating fake ish like that will certainly cause more cancer.
