No meat grown in a lab would still be meat even of its artificially created. Artificial just means made by humans

Yes, and? That' s what I said, that it would be artificial meat made in a laboratory, so different in its origin from the natural thing. There would still be a difference, that difference could be very small if the result is incredibly similar to the natural thing, but it' s never going to be completely the same, because they way it is born as is different.

You didn’t say natural meat you said “real” meat. Meat grown in a lab would still be real meat.

Cool, point still stands, the origin is different so it will never be the same as "natural" meat. There will always be a distinction and they will never be the same, and there will always be the need to point out the origin of the thing so that people can choose whether to consume the natural product or the artificial one.

Nah natural is subjective. Are humans not a part of nature?
