Synthetic fish isn't quite there yet—and may not be worth the effort.

That’s pretty cool.
Enjoyed the author’s review of the food, but not so much the reasoning in the conclusion. The justification about eating fish felt weirdly defensive.
If this has a smaller footprint than farming real salmon, it’s a win. I prefer real meat to beyond meat, yet I eat beyond meat 1-2 times a week in an effort to reduce meat consumption.
It doesn’t have to be all or nothing, for many it just has to be good enough.
