I can't honestly answer the poll because my willingness to eat it would depend on a few things:
1) Does it taste the same?
2) Is the texture the same?
3) Is it as cheap or cheaper than traditional meat?
4) Is it better on an ecological/environmental standard? (i.e. using less resources and polluting less)
5) Is the nutritional content the same or better?
6) Are there any long term side effects to eating it? (i.e. cancer risk, effect on cholesterol, blood pressure and colorectal health etc.)

If the majority or all of these can be answered with a yes, then, yes, I would consider giving up traditional meat for it, otherwise it would be a balance, or sticking with real meat.

Just like the lead pipes that carried our drinking water to asbestos we sprayed into our loft in the 80's I'm pretty warry when scientists come up with these marvelous things to make life "better"

Saying that I do have several radioactive fire alarms in my house and am bombarded by several wifi signals constantly all day so I'm not so stubborn not to see a benefit behind such things, I just don't see artificial meat to be worth the risk.
