Startup to Serve Up Chicken Strips Cultivated From Cells in Lab
Time to sell the farm?????
"A Bay Area food-technology startup says it has successfully developed
the world’s first chicken strip grown from self-reproducing cells
without so much as ruffling a feather.
And it pretty much tastes
like chicken, according to people who were offered samples Tuesday in
San Francisco, before a planned big reveal on Wednesday by Memphis Meats
Inc.
Scientists, startups and animal-welfare activists believe
the new product could help to revolutionize the roughly $200 billion
U.S. meat industry. Their goal: Replace billions of cattle, hogs and
chickens with animal meat they say can be grown more efficiently and
humanely in stainless steel bioreactor tanks."
