Vat-grown

This spam threw me for a loop.

"Just before he died he left me his tusks in his will, written right
down here, see? These are real vat-grown tusks and cost a lot. Can they
be transplanted?"

I wasn't sure where I saw it, but that text looked familiar.

Can anybody identify the science-fiction novel that came from? ...a prize to the first who IDs it without a web search (like I did). Comments screened.

...Now I need to see if I still have the novel squirreled away somewhere. It's been a while.

If you're thinking of googling it, be warned that the text has apparently gotten into the porn-site ouvre and the first half-dozen matches are sorta nasty.
