...None of these advances mean that living with cancer is easy, or even possible. A certain percentage of patients, as Snow and Edwards surely know, do not respond to any current treatments. And some types of cancer - particularly pancreatic, ovarian and stomach - continue to have high mortality rates, one reason cancer still kills 560,000 Americans every year. Side effects remain an issue as well, though antinausea medications are now so good that some doctors say it's rare for their patients to vomit.

Today, I can’t even look at those glistening white cubes without getting queasy. Then, I was willing to stomach them for an ideal: not for the sake of the animals or my health, but for the environment. Meat, I would’ve been quick to tell you, is a bigoted inefficiency to which only those of us in flabby America are privy; Annenberg was my church and fake meat...
