USDA approves lab-grown chicken for sale in the US, raising questions about food safety and climate impact.

The USDA has approved the sale of lab-grown chicken, allowing companies like UPSIDE Foods and Eat Just to begin producing and selling the product. While it may take years before lab-grown chicken is available in regional grocery chains due to price competition with conventionally raised livestock, the companies are working to increase production. The approval involves a rigorous process, including assessing a firm's food-safety system. Lab-grown meat is grown in steel tanks using cells from a living animal, making it real meat, not "fake meat." Advocates describe it as clean, safe, and humane compared to conventional ways of raising livestock.

"US Regulators Approve Sale of Lab-Grown Chicken Meat to Public"

Two California-based companies, Upside Foods and Eat Just, have received full approval from the US Department of Agriculture to sell their lab-grown chicken products in the US. The products are grown using cells from living or once-living animals and are combined with a broth-like mixture to grow the meat inside a steel tank. The move is seen as a way to reduce the environmental impact of traditional animal husbandry and provide consumers with more choices for sourcing their meats. The companies will start small, serving their products in upscale restaurants before eventually making their way to grocery store shelves.

Lab-grown mammoth meatball: A food stunt or the future of meat?

Australian startup Vow has unveiled a meatball made of lab-grown cultured meat using the genetic sequence from the long-extinct mammoth, which is meant to fire up public debate about the hi-tech treat. The cells were multiplied until there were enough to roll up into the meatball. More than 100 companies around the world are working on cultivated meat products, many of them startups like Vow. Experts say that if the technology is widely adopted, it could vastly reduce the environmental impact of global meat production in the future.

"Startup unveils lab-grown mammoth meatball made with extinct species' DNA"

Australian startup Vow has created a meatball made of lab-grown cultured meat using the genetic sequence from the long-extinct mammoth, presented as a source of protein to get people talking about the future of meat. The cells were multiplied until there were enough to roll up into the meatball. More than 100 companies around the world are working on cultivated meat products, which could vastly reduce the environmental impact of global meat production in the future. The mammoth meatball is a one-off and has not been tasted, nor is it planned to be put into commercial production.

Australian startup creates mammoth DNA-infused meatball

Australian startup Vow has unveiled a meatball made of lab-grown cultured meat using the genetic sequence from the long-extinct mammoth, presented as a source of protein that would get people talking about the future of meat. The mammoth meatball is a one-off and has not been tasted, even by its creators, nor is it planned to be put into commercial production. Cultivated meat is made from animal cells, and if the technology is widely adopted, it could vastly reduce the environmental impact of global meat production in the future.
