Singapore has become the first country in the world to allow the sale of meat that doesn’t come from an animal but from a laboratory. Strange but true!
More and more people are eating more and more meat, hurting animals, Nature, the climate and our own health.
If we want to keep enjoying meat, like Christmas dinners, one solution could be to “grow” meat from animal cells in factories.
This article from Reuters sets out the basics of the news from Singapore on approving lab-grown chicken nuggets from U.S. startup Eat Just. They also have this video version.
The website foodnavigator.com has a good roundup of expert reaction.
Take a look at Eat Just’s own promotional video for its lab chicken here. And it’s only fair to say that they don’t just grow chicken. They also grow…eggs!
