Oh, also "The bars consist of fruits and nuts and are made without genetically modified ingredients". I was kinda wondering about the GMO.
I have mixed feelings about GMOs. The patents are a whole can of worms, but https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golden_rice seems like a good thing. Also, if we can create test tube meat that doesn't require the feeding and slaughtering of huge animals, then that would seem to be a net positive. It still seems like you could just skip the test tube meat and eat fruits and vegetables, but the whole "do this because otherwise our species will be extinct" thing doesn't seem to resonate with people. Assuming there aren't patent encumberances, test tube meat should be cheaper. And...and even if there are patents, it's in the interest of that industry to undercut traditional meat anyway.
