"Lab-grown chicken gains USDA approval, debuts in San Francisco restaurant"

The US Department of Agriculture has approved the sale of lab-grown chicken produced by Upside Foods and Good Meat. Bar Crenn in San Francisco will be serving cultivated chicken tempura on its menu, becoming the first restaurant to offer the product. Cultivated meat is developed from animal cells and grown in bioreactors, offering a slaughter-free alternative that could appeal to ethical and environmentally conscious consumers. Monthly dinner services featuring cultivated chicken will be available at Bar Crenn later this year, and Good Meat plans to serve its product at José Andrés' restaurant in Washington, DC.

Lab-Grown Meat Receives USDA Approval, California Companies Set to Sell

The U.S. Agriculture Department has approved the sale of lab-grown meat from animal cells, marking a significant milestone for the alternative protein industry. California-based companies Upside Foods and Good Meat are the first in the country to receive federal clearance to sell meat cultivated from stem cells. Lab-grown meat is produced by multiplying animal cells in a bioreactor and feeding them a nutrient-rich broth to develop muscle, fat, or connective tissue. While supporters believe it offers environmental benefits and reduces animal suffering, opponents raise concerns about potential risks and labeling.

Lab-grown meat gains legal approval and consumer interest in the US.

The US Department of Agriculture has ruled that cultured chicken is safe to eat and legal to sell. Two California-based companies, Upside Foods and Good Meat, have received FDA approval for their lab-grown chicken. Upside Foods plans to produce 50,000 pounds of meat per year, while Good Meat is building a demonstration plant in Singapore and plans to build a large-scale facility in the US with an annual production capacity of 30 million pounds of meat. Educating consumers on how cultured meat is made could help overcome skepticism, but the industry still faces challenges related to cost, scalability, and environmental impact.

USDA approves sale of 'lab-grown' chicken from two Bay Area companies.

The US Agriculture Department has approved the sale of chicken made from animal cells, allowing two California companies, Upside Foods and Good Meat, to offer "lab-grown" meat to restaurants and eventually supermarkets. The move aims to eliminate harm to animals and reduce the environmental impacts of traditional meat production. Cultivated meat is grown in steel tanks, using cells that come from a living animal, a fertilized egg, or a special bank of stored cells. However, the cost of cultivated chicken is much higher than meat from whole, farmed birds and cannot yet be produced on the scale of traditional meat.

Lab-grown chicken approved for sale in the US

The US Department of Agriculture (USDA) has approved the sale of lab-grown meat to the public for the first time. Good Meat and Upside Foods have received approval to begin selling their chicken products commercially. Lab-grown meat is created using cells from living animals, such as a fertilized egg, which is incubated and grown into large masses of meat. The companies plan to roll out their products at partnered restaurants as production costs of the lab-grown meat are far higher than normal butchering, making mass-market sales difficult.

"US Approves Cultivated Chicken as First 'Lab-Grown' Meat"

The US Agriculture Department has approved the sale of chicken made from animal cells, allowing two California companies, Upside Foods and Good Meat, to offer "lab-grown" meat to restaurants and eventually supermarkets. The move aims to eliminate harm to animals and reduce the environmental impact of traditional meat production. The companies plan to serve the new food first in exclusive restaurants, as cultivated chicken is much more expensive than meat from whole, farmed birds and cannot yet be produced on the scale of traditional meat.

FDA Approves Second Lab-Grown Chicken Product for Human Consumption in the US

Good Meat, the cultivated meat unit of Eat Just, has received regulatory clearance from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its production method, making it the second company to receive the "no questions" clearance from the FDA. The company's initial plans are to work with chef José Andrés to sell the company's chicken in one of his Washington, D.C. restaurants. The cultivated meat industry is predicted to reach $25 billion in value by 2030 and is estimated to cut greenhouse gas emissions by up to 96% via less water, land use, and energy over the traditional way of using animals to make meat.

FDA approves lab-grown chicken for human consumption in the US.

GOOD Meat, a company that produces chicken and other meat from animal cells without slaughtering animals, has received a "no questions" letter from the FDA, indicating that its cultivated chicken is safe to consume. The company must now obtain a grant of inspection from the USDA to operate its production facility in California. GOOD Meat is the second cultivated meat company to receive FDA clearance, and the company has been selling its chicken in Singapore since 2020. The potential environmental benefits of cultivated meat are significant, and the FDA and USDA are working together to ensure that cultivated meats entering the U.S. market are safe and properly labeled.

FDA Approves Second Lab-Grown Chicken Product for Commercialization in the US

GOOD Meat has become the second startup to receive a 'no questions' letter from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for its process of growing chicken from cells outside of the animal. The company plans to produce cultivated chicken products for the US market later this year from a 3,500-liter bioreactor in Alameda, California, pending approval from the US Dept of Agriculture (USDA). The FDA regulates cell collection, banking, growth, and differentiation for cultivated meat and poultry, while regulatory oversight switches to the USDA once the cells are harvested and through the processing and labeling stages.
