the "monster" was being chopped up alive because it kept growing back everything that was being cut.

They were grinding it up and pretending it was beef.

personally it think we are going to move to a cheaply produced chicken flavored soy curd.

It amazing the profit margins on that stuff now given it cost to produce. I think in the future we will all be eating soy chicken/ soy beef not because it is lower in fat and healthier but because it will be cheaper to produce.
