• ADS4: Hero

  “50 years hence we shall escape the absurdity of growing a whole chicken in order to eat the breast or wing by growing these parts separately.” Winston Churchill, 1936. Recent advances in tissue engineering look set to make Churchill’s vision commercially plausible by 2020. Concurrently, the food industry is becoming increasingly subject to religious influence, with the value of Halal food production now at £300 billion annually. Given this emerging conflict, is our pursuit of genetic enhancement directly contradicted by our desire to retain traditional theist practice? Through an investigation into the acceptance of in vitro cultivated meat I ask: Can a reinterpretation of faith become a tool for the regeneration of London’s most deprived boroughs?
