Lab-grown chicken sounds like something straight out of a Black Mirror episode, but the future is a lot closer than you might think. A press release shared earlier in the week proudly declared that the U.S. Department of Agriculture has approved for sale chicken made from cultivated cells. Two California-based companies, Upside Foods and Good Meat, have received the go-ahead to produce "slaughter-free" meat for restaurants and eventually grocery stores. “I’m thrilled to share that cultivated meat will now be available for consumers in the U.S.,” said Dr. Uma Valeti, Upside’s CEO and founder, in a statement. “This approval will fundamentally change how meat makes it to our table...We are excited to launch with our signature, whole-textured Upside chicken and can’t wait for consumers to taste the future.” The lab-grown chicken, which was created as a more sustainable alternative to traditional meat, is made using cells obtained one of three ways: from a living animal, a fertilized egg, or a special bank of stored cells. www.yahoo.com/lifestyle/lab-grown-chicken-just-got-213600189.html

That's so gross, I can't imagine eating it. Also, the claims of not needing to "slaughter" an animal to make this stuff is not wholly true. Y'know, they got those cells somewhere - and I doubt it was from a 'cheek swab' This faux meat stuff gets more bizarre by the day.

I just hope that when these products do reach the stores that they are clearly labeled as what they are.
