World most expensive burger



Last week I read an article in class about the world's most expensive burger. This is my summary and opinion:

Summary: On August 5 in London, Mark Post made a burger in a lab using stem cell and tissue of a cow.Six weeks later,stem cells are grown into muscle fibres and later on got coloured,minced mixed with fats and shaped into a burger.This fake burger is thick and lacked flavor than the real burger.As the population are raising, there are more people want to eat meat and this fake burger is a solution for the problem. Mark said he made this burger to feed a growing population and to help the environment. The price of this burger is 325,000 dollar.

Opinion: I would love to eat this burger because I would have the enough protein and lipid needed without killing any cow. According to an experiment, a fake burger produces less pollution than a real burger. The only problem is that the price is too high. As suggested by many people, Mark Post should reduce his selling price. If the price was lower, there would be more people eat this burger because even vegetarians can eat this. In my opinion, making a fake burger is a good idea because we don't have to kill any cow, and we can help make a greener planet for al.
