1. Immature cells would be harvested from a pig, cow, chicken or turkey and cultured.
2. Cooks could buy these starter cells, and add them to a growth medium, which would contain water, sugar, salt vitamins, amino acids and growth factors that would stimulate them to reproduce.
3. The mixture would be put into a counter top incubator, where it would be warmed to encourage growth.
4. The cells would develop into muscle fibre.
5. Hours later, small pieces of meat could be harvested, washed and cooked, either in a patty or a sauce.
Bon Apetit, bitches of the 22nd century.

I'm all for progress and everything, but . . . And doesn't Goldmember do that in the Austin Powers movie:
"You're not going to put that skin in your mouth, are you? . . . You did. Ok. That's just gross. "
