Yeast biologist interested in metabolism and genomics. Cultivated meat skeptic. If you misuse the word "fermentation", I *WILL* come after you. Allergic to buzzwords in general. Any opinions expressed here are my own, nothing to do with my employer.
I subscribe to the legal theory that ascocarps (in this case from what looks to be an Ascocoryne species) qualify as “mushrooms” for the purposes of #MushroomMonday

The biochemical and biogeochemical arguments are intricate but the biochemical case against cultivated meat is basically: no optimal way of feeding the cells glucose and amino acids. Biogeochemical argument has to do with how nitrogen gets into the amino acids (see pic). Be happy to elaborate.

I rarely post plant pics – but lycophytes get special treatment. Looks like Lycopodium clavatum.
