Lab-grown meat, cultivated meat, cell-based meat, slaughter-free meat: All of these terms refer to the process of creating real meat from animal cells, despite names that may allude to a vegan product.
What benefits are there to growing meat from chicken cells rather than raising animals for slaughter? Industrial animal agriculture is responsible for an estimated 15 percent of total global greenhouse gas emissions, and with demand for meat projected to double in the next decade, this technology could offer a more sustainable option.
Come with us as we step inside a lab-grown meat facility, and become some of the first to taste-test chicken that was grown in a bioreactor instead of on a factory farm.

Wow.. I can just see it now.. Normal price for lab grown meats, and a premium for actual sliced animal meat. 👀😏
That would be great
"Premium" should be made illegal once lab grown becomes the norm.
@@RedAISkye yes
Why not? Meat is currently massively subsidized in many Western countries. Without those subsidies, it would be significantly more expensive. Also, animals for cheap meat are often housed in tiny enclosures and fed with "artificial" food. The meat industry is actually one of the main reasons why the rainforests are shrinking each year. You have to farm enormous amounts of soy to feed to the animals, far exceeding the soy that humans consume. If we only allowed for free range humane meat, we would obviously have to pay more for that. Considering the environmental impact of the meat industry and the cruelty with which those animals are treated, i would be very happy with replacing it with lab grown meat. And it could actually be healthier, if you consider all of the antibiotics and other medications that those factory farmed animals get pumped full of.
I can see it this way: we the plebs grown meat and our rulers the real stuff
50 years from now you'll be able to buy a meat generator on Amazon 😂
It will be powered by western education too !
I love these videos where companies are all about saving the world with not a mention that they don't give a damn about anything except making the MONEY.
They also conveniently never mention that the meat being grown is 100% cancer cells, i.e., they use mutated cell lines that, unlike normal cells, never stop dividing. Enjoy those cancer patties, guys!
Usually, what does not turn a profit is something which is not really in demand.
@@prolarka I totally agree, it's the motivation to create these products that I am mainly referring to which to be fair I did not clarify.
The control is the agenda on the table@@prolarka
Sure, the companies goal is to make money. In this case, this development will likely be good for the environment (though maybe not right away). Right now the plant take up a lot of space, use a lot of energy, and only develop a little bit of meat. So now its not good for the environment, probably a net negative, but long term as the efficiency of these plants improve it should be good for the environment. It also reduces animal suffering. On a personal level, this is something I am excited about as a vegetarian, who would eat engineered meat.

The problem is that the food companies are lobbying so that they don’t have to label the package as lab grown. They are also lobbying so that regular meat can’t label their package as non-lab grown. The food companies don’t want the consumer to be able to tell the difference at the time of purchase
Yes, and if they are spending so much money to hide the source of this food product, it likely means negative outcomes for us.
@@RMBlake007it’s literally the exact same thing as the meat from animals genius the thing is the words “lab grown” are very scary words for anyone who doesn’t know what that means
Because their is no difference. Its the same meat.
The label should be "ANTIBIOTICS FREE" No farm would compete with that
The way to avoid this buy halal meat. This way tastes the same and not possible to have lab grown halal .
Let me get this straight, in a society that is being groomed for Non GMO products, you are promoting GMO meats . Yes , that makes perfect sense !
Did they mention somewhere about the shelf life of the cultivated meat or did I missed that? They seem to be open about the product yet hide some glaring important information.
after it is processed, id assume its just like normal meat .because that's what it is, so as long as you freeze it and refrigerate you should be fine.
I was thinking about how some of the meat I bring home go spoiled unless I freeze it. While they're at it, it would be nice if they can come up with a process to slow spoilage of meats and fruits and vegetables. I had some Impossible ground meat the other day that lasted about 2x longer than regular ground.
2029 to get it to scaled profitability? Not too terrible, in fact some would say that's an amazing timescale.
If a cultivated-meat company were to prove that a scalable pilot plant can produce a hundred-thousand pounds of good meat a year for a few years, with no major contamination or other big problems, that would prove Fassler wrong and bring in a new round of funding for the best companies to reach large scale. Upside needs to prove that this pilot plant in Emeryville does just that.

@@alitharealist4730 Now, if you only knew what cancer is, you'd know that it grows in living animals aswell, countless times a day, in your body, the animal you've eaten today, your parents bodies etc. And than you'd knew aswell, that such meat is usually just thrown away then. But if you'd know that, why would you think your comment is a valid point? Because If cancer would grow in those artificial meats, they could be thrown away just like your ordinary meat. But you dont know all these things. Because you have no idea what you're talking about and are just scared of new things you dont understand. you know nothing
So... You're telling me its unsustainable to be a farmer now when that job first began since the beginning of human civilization? Yeah no, I want no lab grown anything in my diet.
No more animal cruelty is a good deal for everyone
Factory farms where animals are caged together in stupidly high populations, aren't farms. Running a sustainable number of grazing animals, where the soil always has vegetation covering it, even during drought, is what farming should be.

@@alitharealist4730 Actually - this isn't the case. The myth that cell cultured meat is made from cancer cells has been spreading on social media lately, but it's not true. The AP has a pretty good fact check on this: apnews.com/article/fact-check-lab-meat-cancer-animal-cells-449786524119
It's all according to plan. They've been shutting down farms and now they are saying the demand is double. Well yeah, when there's barely any farms left
I mean... assuming energy costs are around the same doesn't it make sense to eat lab grown meat instead of other meat? It's objectively more humane, there's really no reason to not do it.
@@jorgeenchilada That is not for you to decide for everyone else. Most people are more comfortable with the idea of their meat coming from real animals
@sunset6958 yea but it's time to get with it ,your caveman days are coming to an end you will enjoy lab grown meat PERIOD. To many people in the world sorry bud.
I am not eating this cancer cell garbage. This just another scheme for the rich to get richer. The largest land owner being Bill Gates and guess what, he is the largest investor of lab meats. Interesting.... push global warming and cancer cells onto the general population so you can get rich. Sounds convenient.
@@sunset6958yeah because they're a bunch of whiny baby snowflakes
excuse me, did this man just say safe and sustainable? i dont see that in this picture
Its such a small portion to what cost will be, it'll be hard to compete and who knows what additives they will add later. They just said they have antibiotics in the early stage, so who knows what they will add later to thicken it out or preserve it. I'm on the fence on this.
I still would like to know about the protein and all the nutrients you can get from animal meat, can the lab meat match that too?
No and they dont want us to get the protein and nutrients why do you think they are taking the seeds out of all the fruits and gmo vegetables? It’s all about power and control not lack of resources .its greed
That's literally the whole point yes
not neccesarily. depends on the quality of nutrients they feed the cells. I'm not sure what other bodily processes are missing from this lab based one that the live animal lends over the lab grown, but I imagine there could be positives as well as negatives like toxins etc antibiotics, hormones etc etc . While those would be easily missing form the lab grown, what would they need to replace them since they have no immune system at all. There is as well evidence that animals who feed on grass give some enzymes or something that do not appear in corn fed animals.
F*** no. GMOs have already proven this as with every other thing they claim is "totally safe" like bottled water and weapons they dub as vaccines
F*** no. GMOs have already proven this as with every other thing they claim is "totally safe" like bottled water and weapons they dub as medicine
I'm guessing that longterm analysis will show that this "meat" will not be nearly as healthy for humans as naturally grown. There are a lot of subtleties to nutrition from food that are not fully understood. What will happen is that this kind of meat will be for "poor" people and the rich will still eat farm grown meats !!!!
isn't this already the case where low quality meats and processed foods with an abundance of hormones and antibiotics are the cheapest while quality organic meats like wagyu are at a premium?
Not to mention they can put anything in it they want, like mRNA to neuter and maim a population.
Dont care ,go vegan then.
It bothers me how comfortable people are in just accepting these things with so much trust as if nothing could go wrong . On top of that, thinking that the rest of the world should be comfortable with their ridiculous ideas just because they are, and if they aren't, they're being "inhumane." If you want to eat lab grown meats that's a decision you should make for yourself , not for everybody else, and telling people to just go vegan if they decide not to take part as you push this into the process of replacing real meat is just wrong.
No it will not be for the poor because it is much more expensive to produce. But the way politics is going they will ban farms and subsidize fake meat and we poor people will have to go vegan. Unless we wake up and oppose Globalist Marxist agenda.
"the cost of meat is increasing rapidly" "we also want to sell you lab grown meat that is made in much smaller quantities, therefore will be higher priced" Sounds about right for this whole debate.
It's about scalability. Conventional meat has been scaled to its limit, and to great expense (land/water use, unethical treatment, lower quality), whereas this technology has relatively limitless room to scale to meet rising demand and nutritional needs (and is also extremely customizable to our preferences)
I’m curious as to the carbon foot print, emissions, and amount of water needed to make this per lb???
Its way less than than meat for a 1kg steak you need 5 hectares of land an 1000ml of water
It's currently actually much more than normal meat.
The quantity of water need for conventional beef is between 5000 liters and 20000 liters, not 1000 ml, 1000 ml equals 1 liter.@@definitlynotbenlente7671

Eating the same DNA over and over again won't cause any problems. There are actually a lot of plants that have the same DNA, and no one has gotten ill from them yet.
Main problem from a dietary point of view, aside from any religious concerns, is there still be no offals and much lower mineral (iron, potassium) and vitamin (B12, etc) content and those who eat meat mainly for the iron to offset their anemia will need to take chemical laced supplements.

@@kilojuliet2693 How exciting.
If people want offal, companies could grow offal cells. And I don't see why mineral and vitamin content would necessarily differ; it depends on which cells and how they're grown, just like it depends on which cut of meat and how the animals were fed and raised.

I try to spend more where I can, to get food that hasn't been subject to cost cutting methods. I hope that in the future they will be able to produce something natural and truly good for our bodies.
I had similar thoughts when he was talking about changing the nutrient profile of the meat. The history of nutritional science is an absolute travesty of bad ideas. The Carnivore diet basically saved my life. I am incredibly skeptical that lab grown beef will come even within spitting distance of how healthy grass fed beef is.

Ridiculous to think that the construction, maintenance, and energy costs for mega factories like shown in this video would create less carbon than real meat grown and harvested on a local scale. There's no way you're going to place factories like this in any community. And there's no way lab grown sterile meat will provide the same natural nutrient spectrum as real meat.

Henrietta Lacks Cancer Cells is how this meat grows.. 🙂 IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW
Thank W E F, they are funding this.
The only turn off for me is that the companies that create the meat will constantly be forced by shareholders to lower production costs. Unlike real meat that is relatively consistent, the quality and texture of lab grown meat can bottom out and be poor quality or even hazardous. Corporations will do anything to make more money even if it’s dangerous to consumers.
I thought that too, sure we could grow meat with the highest possible input of vitamins/feed and potentially make 'nutrious meat', or we could put the baaaaaaare minimum input to grow meat, basically a bunch of weak, floppy, almost dying cells, but hey who cares, it tastes almost the same and costs much less, screw people's health. I'm also concerned that there are compounds in real meat that might be totally missed in making meat in these isolated processes, can we really grow perfect meat that nutritionally matches meat from an animal?
That’s a super valid concern- but it also applies to the traditional approaches we already have. Things like concentrated animal agriculture are the result of people trying to get higher productivity from ever smaller plots of land, cutting costs, etc … Cultivating meat won’t solve the problem of businesses trying to lower their costs despite the consequences to the consumer. That’s usually the sort of problem we address through a combination of market mechanisms (high quality brands we trust because they have a good reputation) and regulatory interventions (FDA approval for foods and drugs, FAA oversight for air travel, etc…)
I wouldn’t want this either but this has already been done in the meat industry. Why do you think so many animals are crammed in to places to live in their own shit and disease? It’s to maximise profit, not for better meat
The Same thing happens in agriculture also where cow and animals are fed only corn and Thus you have lower quality meat
You're imagining all these problems.
Though, I am curious about the taste. I am also curious about the nutrition value. Also can this be viable not just to feed the restaurant needs but the grocery stores. Plant based hotdogs are nearly 4.00 or more at the local food chain. This doesn't go very far for a middle class family that may have 4 or more children. Especially when they can get 24 bun length Franks hotdogs for 4.99.

@@swedesspeedshop2518 for one we already do i have multiple dairy farms in my area and turkey farms and pig farms. But to maintain meat at the grocery store at consistent quality, quantity, and prices you need to have a larger network. imagine if your area got hit with avian bird flu welp guess you guys arent eating any chicken for awhile. or if an area gets wiped out by a hurricane. The food system is structured the way it is for many reasons and one of them is food security. Also the system for making meat with animals is about as efficient as it can get but they are still making small improvements mostly to crop yields per acre with less fertilizer and pestisides. There is just no room to improve it really besides doing what this company is doing or just eating less meat as a people. any method diffferent would yeild less meat per acre but it would be more sustainable and ecoligically friendly but you will make less meat that is just a fact.
@@swedesspeedshop2518because the biggest city near you would be like 8,000 lmao. Animals take an obscene amount of space to make the meat we eat today.
@@kilojuliet2693 New York City used to have its own meat district maybe still does? Next time you are in an airplane take a look out the window of all the undeveloped space
Dodo burger! Woolly Mammoth stakes. Megladon and chips. Our future is so tasty!
okey so we mix chicken and goat cell and try to breed, what meat will we be even eating💀
Before we can do this, we have to get past the greedy corporations.
how do they keep getting the stem cells?
They have a small one-time sample taken from the animal, either from bone marrow or reprogramming muscle/skin cells from the animal into stem cells, then cultured en masse.
Cloning. which will end up creating random problems.. This is a gross Idea and should be left alone.. Just my opinion though
I Think it's a Start in the right direction for the Future... Considering the growing population and consumers of Meat🔦. 👍@@_mylastname
You can get it from fatty tissues without harming an animal
Henrietta Lacks Cancer Cells is how this meat grows.. 🙂 IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW.....
Vegans can still call themselves vegans if they eat lab grown lol
Unless they are going to complain about the fact that an animal received a small puncure to extract the base cells needed to start the process.
They should, if not they wouldnt be consistent with not using, honey, milk, wool, etc...@@Mr_Lambda
When can we get this to Walmarts, Targets, etc? Otherwise, this has no impact. I switched to plants based alternatives but I would like to try this as it doesn't hurt animals and doesn't waste so much resources.
I can see consuming it on a long space journey, but I don't plan on eating it here on earth 😂
How does this work with the salmonella risk in chicken? Could it be safe to eat raw lab-grown chicken meat?
Yeah if there's no bacteria or viruses in it you probably could have a chicken tatar. In many countries they vaccinate the chickens against salmonella so it's not such a problem.
@@buzz1ebee awesome! Didn't know that. Thank you!
yeah but raw doesn't taste that good xD@@MynameisJoey
the united states is one of the only countries that does not vaccinate chickens against Salmonella. Properly handled chickens in sterile environments do not have the same issues as factory farms trying to shave every penny.
If any bacteria get in the cell culture will die the entire prosess has to be sterile
My question is how do they keep the industrial lab so clean and spotless 24/7 ??!!
the same way they make a semiconductor factory clean
@@anonimoqualquer5503 as if I know how they keep semi conductors factories clean xD
It's very hard, very controlled, and very expensive. But pharma has been keeping their facilities very clean for a long time. Eternal vigilance is the price of cleanliness.
They aren't using that lab yet at scale. And they have to keep it spotless, no matter how big it gets. Contamination is their big enemy. It's like a clean room lab in mushroom production. If it ain't really clean, the whole operation will fail at some point, when you least expect it.
@@charliedoyle7824 nobody is yet. It's hard. Even the process is difficult to scale, especially without the use of scaffolds or microcarriers, etc. a batch contamination at large scale would be financially devastating, so having a clean process is critical.
I love the idea and I would like to try it but I also would like to know where do they get the nutrients to feed the cells.
Have you seen the conditions animals are raised in? With the cruelty involved and sanitary conditions is awful. With the amount of people populating the earth would it not be a good idea to have another source of food.?
This seems sooo much reasonable, viable and definitely will taste just like the real thing. Hopefully the GIANT CORPORATIONs won't cause any harm to those 2 geniuses.
We don't need lab meat
Man, what is the cost on that lab?
I just want to make sure the company growing the meat is under scrutiny and not putting in fluoride or anything unnecessary.
Chic Fila been selling fake chicken and people love it 😢😂😂
If they want to charge premium for their product I hope they will be selling the dinosaur meat instead of just chicken...
Isn't the description of how it's grown the same way they say cancer grows?
Cancer is just uninhibited cell growth. This statement could more or less just be phrased as "isn't the description of how it's grown the same was they say cells grow" and you'd be correct without implying an unnecessary stigma.
@Magistrate17 you are incorrect. The cell lines they use are cancer cells by definition, i.e., cells that have mutated such that "programmed cell death" is disabled. Normal cells "turn off" based on either how many divisions occur or when they come into contact with other cells. If these genetic mutations show up in a living organism, the result is cancer that never stops growing and crowding out the normal cells and organs. You couldn't pay me to eat this stuff
Another way to secretly slip in that one strand of DNA that limits human life to 40 something years, thus saving the planet from over population. Sure ! I’ll buy that …NOT !
Interesting how the comment "debunking" you remains but my comment explaining scientifically why the "debunking" comment is incorrect has been deleted. Great job editors who don't want the public to be aware that this meat is mutated cell lines indistinguishable from and that operate the same as cancer mutations
@@Magistrate17 But why hide the 'stigma'? Besides, not all 'cells grow' the same. Some proliferate out of control in the body, causing many bad effects to the point of deat4. Maybe these lab grown products will eventually produce more of the same in human bodies? Time will tell.
There is just no way that this can be healthy for anyone. This is so sad
Once they're able to sell this technology for individual homes, the only thing left is to buy a 3D printer and then play an IRL sandbox survival game at your house. 😗
Amazing to see people here so disturbed by lab grown meat that is essentially exactly the same meat as the real, but are totally fine eating meat from animals that are fed the worst possible food, over injected with antibiotics, living and breathing in their own shit and surrounding by dying animals. Not even the mention the actual suffering.
I grew up raising chickens and other animals and it's not hard if you know how to look. Fake meat will not save us from corporate interests who will still shove even more chems and other filler in it just like your vegan stuff, which unless is PURE vegetables, is most likely all processed refined carbs. Vegans buy faux "healthy" crap thinking there's nutrients - yet still end up the most depressed/anxious, depleted of tons of vitamins, barely have energy (especially men who lift weights) and can barely think for themselves without the help of the TikTok hive mind telling them what to think. At least with a piece of chicken we still get the most nutritional density vs anything vegan. Oh and I love chicken, pork or beef on a big plate of veggies. So good.
Some people do stick to organic and non-GMO foods while abstaining from hot pressed oils, added sugar, and processed foods... The majority of FDA-approved foods are not healthy and the "generally regarded as safe" label just means it won't kill you quickly. I am open to trying this meat if it aligns with Blueprints philosophy of slowing cell degradation. But it has to be from independent data, not a 3 letter government agency. - Tristan
Also don't forget what we are doing to the soil, spraying it with chemicals that I believe eventually enters our body when we are eating the animals. So this great news. Once this meat factory technology is perfected we will be healthier, it is cheaper, better for the environment and no more animal suffering. I call that a win in my book. Just like any technology there is maturing process; just like cars, airplanes, computers etc. Ending on a critical note I am asking what could possible go wrong with this technology?
Not all food in the world has to be approved by FDA, it's not that only the USA exists but I am used to talk with americans so I get they only think about themselves and funny enough they eat basically the worst unhelthiest food in the world lmao. Lab grown meat is way safer to anybody that understand both the science behind and the shit traditional meat goes through. "organic" means nothing and GMO are not a threat but people are stupid and ignorant, so it really doesn't matter.@@Triflixfilms
@@Triflixfilmsseems liek whatever FDA approves is deadly. notice they ban MXE and the GOOD resrch chemicals while leaving the DEADLY ones legal..... NOTHINg makes since till you realize THEY AWNT YOU DDDDDXXXXXDDDD!
Funny how the people who make the food doesn’t eat it themselves.
how does it feel to lie to get a fictional non existent point?
they probably do.
@@swipsi6858how does it feel to be dumb do your research why you think the meat can be full grown and ready to eat in 2weeks it’s because the cells that are growing are cancer cells which grow rapidly at an astounding rate an thats what you will be eating
do you ever see bill gates rambling over a windows update?
@@alahsiaboi8909 no
Ask them if they also eat the food they produce😂. You should have asked him to take a bite as well with you.
It's ironic that opponents of cultivated meat make arguments that more accurately describe conventional factory farmed meat. Low nutritional value and quality, monoplization, high costs and limited scalability, harmful additives, unnatural processes, etc. I hate to break it to you, but your McDonalds patties don't come from a picturesque free-range family farm with two cows, a dozen chickens, and a loving cattle dog named Bear. I highly recommend reading up on a company called Tyson. I'm excited to have this as an alternative in the near future. I think the product will speak for itself once the price comes down.
I was hoping for more details of the actual production. This video is mostly a commercial for cultivated meat in general.
Yea like they are gonna show you their secrets.😅
The hundreds of comments being posted that discuss the actual science of how this is produced are being systematically deleted by the owners of this channel. They clearly don't want you to know the science and the associated risks
lololol
So eventually only the rich will REAL MEAT and the rest of us peasants will have biolab-meat.
So eventually people will be willing not to oppress animals to chase the profit motive.

So long as the taste remains okay, and we're not eating mealworm or cricket proteins that taste like... Mealworm or crickets.
Lab grown meat should get credit for low environmental footprint or hoof meat should get cost of damage to the planet added.
Oh thank goodness…FDA approve 😅 such a trustworthy organization that only cares about the public good. It must be really good for you, just like lucky charms and fruit loops 👍🏻

Amazing! So, I could donor my cells and get a burger named after myself 😀
those that flee scarred from slaugher houses have not raised animals like never; wales eat small fish like somebody used to point out to me; this is the natural process
The main downside that I've heard so far about this is fat cholestrol and sodium content will these labs grow meat with less and no cholestrol? Will they add lots of salt or grow no salt added?
if indeed it tastes the same and is cheaper, you can´t beat it. Only question is how and where you produce the raw products that are required.
Can't wait to try this stuff. Finally, a cruelty free meat.
"a cruelty free meat" - you write what if a cannibal wanted lab grown baby human meat? so the cannibal raises his baby with the baby's own body Is that "a cruelty free meal? Just wondering.......
@@arnaryll9630I’d say it is but going vegan is best. Animal products are carcinogenic to humans.
Dont worry everyone, dont focus on if its healthy for your body or not, just focus on if it tastes good great idea
What cell lines are they using...?
So what’s going to happen to all the old cows, without those cells?🙃
Good question isn't it.... the cells are taken from maybe 1 cow and grown in the Petri dish! Given a place to grow n grow n grow! So essentially synthetic! They are placing slow kill inside like cancers too....
So can there be genetic abnormalities due to the mass production of basically genetically modified meat?
I'm assuming yes, like cancer cells. I also assume this shit isn't a healthy alternative. 😂
Henrietta Lacks Cancer Cells is how this meat grows.. 🙂 IF YOU KNOW YOU KNOW,.,
The meat is not genetically modified and you will not get cancer from eating it anymore than you would get cancer from eating a steak

There is no way this lab-grown meat won't have some not-so-obvious-at-first but serious side effects in the long run.
You're misappropriating long term effects of new ingredients with something that is literally just the same ingredients
I mean you can't say real meat is any better either
@@eigenman2571 It is if you get it from a local farm and not the grocery store.
@@eigenman2571 meat is one of the healthiest foods you can eat
You have to remember that this meat is not artificial - it is ALIVE and taken from a real animal, not made from scratch. It's a huge difference
I don't have time to watch this at the moment but does it mention HEK and HELA cells? Eating these cells would constitute cannibalism. In addition - the other known immortal cell lines come from rats, mice, dogs, hamsters and monkeys. None of which people are normally eating willfully except in very specific cultures. It should also be noted that there MUST be a risk of prion diseases with this and that these would not likely be detected until postmortem autopsies are conducted. This means you're likely to be dead before they realize this is causing problems ^^.
Please watch the video before spouting off. No where do they mention HELA cells or cells from any other animal. They only mention getting cells from the target animal like a cow or a chicken
I'm glad you mentioned all this. Majority won't even care, all they CARE about is"climate change" and being smug about NOT eating meat.. humans are so easily manipulated and brainwashed.. They can eat all the crickets they want, I'm all set with this crap.
nah that’s old school stuff, the world has moved way past that. All they need is a small sample from the host and they can create iPSCs, induced pluripotent stem cells, and can be differentiated into any tissue type
mitosis
We're not eating HEKs or HELAs.
And it means animals wont be scared and produce adrenaline to survive that transfers to our body and make us angry or scared
As it said in the video, it is very unstable. Once bacteria gets in, the batch is done. If this becomes the norm and farming animals is outlawed, an authoritarian government could control the industry and cause mass famine. I’m moving out of LA asap
did anyone catch the pig pooping in the beginning? 0:31
Wealthy people and those who also support this should eat this, not me
Not me either
I envision a future where the masses eat lab grown meat and actual on-the-hoof meat is reserved for special occasions because there's just no way you're going to replicate meat perfectly. But for low-brow food like chicken nuggets? No one is going to know the difference between lab grown and natural.
Lmao it's literally the same process that happens naturally minus the immune system

@@squibbelsmcjohnson Tissue structure is very complex and hard to fully replicate.
Hopefully though, they will make a plant-based replacement to FBS. I'm in if they do that.
@@squibbelsmcjohnson Except it isn't and a 10 minute youtube video isn't enough to prove that. The digestive process that ruminant meat animals undergo create a complex nutrient profile which is extremely beneficial to our bodies. It's gonna take a lot of lab testing, not taste testing, to prove that the meats have similar effects on us.
The idea of lab-grown meat leaves me feeling quite uncertain about the future. This emerging technology, which involves cultivating meat in a lab setting, strikes me as a meddling with natural processes that shouldn’t be tampered with. While many seem excited about this innovation, I find myself skeptical and concerned. For centuries, we’ve relied on naturally sourced foods. Now, with companies steering the course of our food’s composition, it’s hard to feel confident about what we’re consuming. What exactly are they adding to these lab-grown meats? How can we be sure these additions are safe and not just profit-driven compromises on our health? The shift away from traditional food sourcing to lab cultivation feels like a dangerous pivot from the natural to the synthetic, one that we are too hastily embracing without sufficient scrutiny 10:22
My concern is the antibiotics. At first, they'll probably start with a small dose but over time they will be increased for one reason or another. Then, when we get sick, antibiotics won't be able to help us because of this artificial meat?
