Many people are trying to reduce the amount of meat that they eat, but they still crave meat products. Scientists have recently developed methods to create simulated meats from vegetable protein that have the appearance, taste, and texture of real meat to satisfy that demand. These products promise to make our food better for the environment, healthier, and safer.
First of all, simulated meat is better for the environment. Raising livestock to produce meat is a massive industry that requires large amounts of water and land, and rainforest is often cut down to create more grazing land. The meat industry also generates huge amounts of air and water pollution. Simulated meats are made from plants and fungi; which use less land and other resources and generate less pollution.
Second, simulated meat is much healthier for people than consuming meat and meat products. Experts recommend that people eat less meat because it contains more unhealthy fats than vegetables, and eating meat products also raises the chances of developing some types of cancer. Vegetables also contain more vitamins and minerals than meat and higher amounts of dietary fiber and healthy carbohydrates that meat cannot provide. Since simulated meats are made entirely from vegetables and other plant products, they are healthier.
Finally, simulated meats are much safer for people to eat because there is a lower chance of them being contaminated with bacteria. Animals naturally contain more harmful bacteria in their bodies than plants do, and those bacteria can be transferred to the people that eat them, causing illness. Simulated meats contain far fewer bacteria, and the ingredients are cooked thoroughly in the process of making them, so they are much safer to eat.
The reading and the lecture are about comparing the simulated meat and natural meat on the basis of different reasons. The author of the article provides three theories about the benefits of eating simulated meat. The lecturer disputes the claims made in the article. His position is that the simulated meat also has many disadvantages that could be a point of concern.
According to the reading, the author explains that artificial meat is beneficial for the environment. The article mentions that a large amount of area is required to pasture the meet. Whereas, simulated meats are manufactured from plants that are environmentally friendly. This specific argument is challenged by the lecturer. He claims that the production of many grains and soya beans involve the usage of fertilizers and pesticides which can equally harm the environment. Additionally, he points out that the rainforest are compromised for both types of meats with very little observable difference.
Secondly, the author suggests that simulated meat is healthy for humans. In the article, it is said that meat contains unhealthy fats than the artificial meat and there is some probability of catching cancer. Whereas, the simulated meat is made from healthy vegetables. The lecturer, however, asserts that the nutritional value of vegetables is reduced significantly because of the chemical processes. He goes on to say that the amount of sodium and oil is much more than that of normal vegetables.
Finally, the author posits that simulated meats are safe to eat because they are not having any bacterial contamination. The author contends that there are dangerous and life threatening bacterias found in meats which could cause illness. Whereas the simulated meats contains lesser bacterias and are safer to consume. In contrast, the lecturer's stance is that there are different kinds of allergies which people have towards food. If people are not able to understand the label of ingredients on the food packet, then they might show the symptoms of allergy. He notes that people can easily find information about allergies on naturally occuring meat.
