In weird food news… Should you be reading this column while consuming a meal, you might want to press pause on the eating thing.

To do so, they took stem cells extracted from a biopsy of a cow and grew 20,000 muscle fibers. (Bet you won't find that recipe in the "Joy of Cooking.") When ready, these fibers were cut open and straightened — after all, who wants crooked meat? — and pressed together to form hamburger. Although biologically identical to beef, it isn't actually beef.
