cultivated meat

The first product using these cultivated meats for animal consumption went on sale earlier this month.

Pitting lab-grown meat against farmers and the beef industry, Florida and Alabama preemptively banned the sale of cultivated meat last year.

If cultivated meat and insects are pitched as necessary sacrifices, any gains they make may be temporary at best.

Global investment in the cultivated meat and seafood sector dropped dramatically in 2023 to less than a third of what it was the year before, a report by the Good Food Institute found.

Still, it’s a deflating end to a year that started with great optimism for the cultivated meat industry.
