lab grown meat

Petri dish protein

Lab grown meat is animal flesh produced by cultivating cells in a laboratory rather than raising and slaughtering livestock.

Also called cultured meat or cell-based meat.

The technology aims to replicate conventional meat's taste and texture while avoiding environmental and ethical concerns of industrial farming: Lab grown meat could reduce agricultural emissions.

Still largely experimental and expensive to produce at scale.
