I have met vegetarians who are convinced that vegetarian is healthier, because when they switched, they started paying attention to getting a balanced diet and they now feel healthier.

That's my take too.I have met people who are convinced the Earth is 6,000 years old. It doesn't mean they're right.
Some people who become vegetarians do pay attention to their diet and making sure they get enough proper nutrition, but at least as many stop eating meat and then eat a lot of salad and junk food. Diets of all types can be healthy or not, depending on how it's implemented.

Better start reading labels for what little information Monsanto, ConAgra and who knows what get's imported from China as "food."
Did you know that "All Natural" on fresh meat labels only applies to the meat after the the animal is slaughtered. You can pump it full of growth hormones and antibiotics, as long as you do it before you kill the animal.
So, I don't see any difference with a veggie burger.

While I would be willing to eat vat grown meat, that stuff looked like I can't buy plain vat grown chicken. I don't want it already breaded. I don't want it already seasoned. If it's going to be partially prepared, then I would rather have it from a resto.These people really make me nervous, test tube meat grown from animal cells.
It may help feed the world but I don't think I will ever be ready for it.

I don't buy processed foods and pick my meat from grass fed/free range. I look my burgers in the face before I eat them. I buy local, if I can't find what I want I buy from trusted sources.

Don't need to do a lot of research about grass fed and free range when you know the rancher.Do some research on "gras fed" and "free range." I did, and was very disappointed at what I found. The food industry seems to write USDA regulations.
As it applies to the OP, I can't see the "impossible burger" being any worse than the "natural" foods I already buy.
And I still want to taste one, just to know if it really tastes like a burger.

This isn't made from muscles, though, so those principles don't applySeems like it would be difficult to get any texture in the lab grown meats. Muscles need to be exercised to some extent for muscle tone, and unless they stimulate them with an electric current, I don't see any way to get that. The tenderest meats are typically those muscles which do the least work, but they still do some work.
