Future foods 2

(cont'd from yesterday's post)

"Cell-cultivated meat" is the same as the tissue of real animals but it didn't grow on an animal. From a little sample of its flesh, the animal's living cells were isolated, fed amino acids, and grown in a laboratory. Nutritionally the same, its taste and texture have been a bit challenging.

Singapore is the first and only nation so far to approve the sale of cultivated meat. Eat Just is selling plant-based eggs there already, as well as selling them at Publix and Whole Foods in the U.S. They and other similar start-ups are pushing for U.S. approval of their cultivated meat.
