Clean meat

From Singapore to the International Space Station, we're starting to see how lab-grown meat might soon make its way out of the lab and into everyday diets, and a newly opened factory in Israel should more than help things along.

A little over two years after Israel-based start-up Aleph Farms unveiled the world’s first lab-grown steak, the company has now revealed a much more complex, thick-cut rib-eye steak cultivated using a novel 3D bioprinting technology.

Researchers have engineered bovine cells to produce lab-grown beef containing a plant nutrient that is converted into vitamin A in the human body. The researchers suggest lab-grown meats could be engineered to convey a broad assortment of health benefits.

Having made a splash with its plant-based burger over the past couple of years, Impossible Foods is now leveraging its technology to take on another form of protein with its second product, the newly introduced Impossible Pork.

A US federal court has temporarily blocked a law, passed in Arkansas earlier in 2019, which made it illegal for terms such as "burgers" and "sausages" to be applied to products made from plant-based materials.

An experiment on the International Space Station reveals the potential for generating consistent supplies of meat for future deep space missions.

KFC plans to trial a plant-based chicken substitute from Beyond Meat, with an eye towards a potential national rollout.

Impossible Foods’ plant-based meat alternative will finally be hitting grocery stores in the United States. The FDA has approved its key additive allowing Impossible Foods to move from only selling its products in restaurants and into supermarkets across the country.​

Are there any animal products in that veggie burger? To avoid confusion several states in America have passed new food labeling laws to make sure only animal products can be called meat, burgers or sausages. But a torrent of lawsuits are pushing back arguing these regulations are unconstitutional.

Global fast food giant Burger King has announced the introduction of the Impossible Whopper at selected stores, offering customers a decidedly greener version of its most iconic hamburger.

Growing meat in the lab from cultured cells is a promising technology, and now a team of food scientists has developed a new method for spinning starchy structures that could hold a steak together. Stranger still, this device is made of Lego.

Israel-based Aleph Farms has just unveiled the world's first lab-grown steak. This milestone on the road to bringing a cruelty-free meat product to the market demonstrates, for the first time, the technology's ability to imitate the flavor, shape, texture and structure of a classic beef steak.
