One Response to “MMM Meat….”

  1. RainOfSteel Says:

    Vat-grown food is, effectively, what feeds the majority of the world in my version of 2050 Shadowrun. In this version of events, economic and environmental factors caused all but a small fraction of 2nd Millennium farming practices to come to a halt.
