True. The studies are still out on this though.
I will point out that "Processed" foods are different than genetically grown foods though.

It's already bad enough that poor people get the lowest quality of meat out there, I just another way to keeping healthy more and more expensive instead of driving the costs down, they've gone up.

Cyn,
You make a good point, but this study is not about raising or lower costs.
As it states, it has nothing to do with ecnomics, rather it's merely an alternative to farming animals "Tissue Engineering discusses the feasibility of producing "cultured meat" in laboratories as an alternative to raising and slaughtering farmed animals."
The issues you are addressing in relation to nutrition and poverty are social and political issues..... which hopefully will be addressed.
although, as the lab noted in the report, many pounds of meat can be grown from only ONE cell . . . we could end hunger potentially?
thanks,
