An example from the US. This is a 15 minutes interview with #UmaValeti, a former cardiologist and CEO/Founder of #UpsideFoods, who was a pioneer in the production of #LabGrownMeat through cell cultivation technology.
Gov. Pillen targets ‘fake meat’ in new executive order, seeks total ban on sales in 2025
"Gov. Jim Pillen and the #Nebraska Department of Agriculture announced new regulations Thursday against “lab-grown meat” or “fake meat,” with Pillen eyeing 2025 legislation to prohibit the sale of such products within the state.
‘We’re being proactive and making sure that silly things aren’t happening, because they are happening on the Coasts,’ Pillen says.
'The livestock lobby is waging war on ‘#LabGrownMeat’. This is why we can’t let them win
These new proteins could be our best hope of averting catastrophe. But governments are trying to have them banned'

A new law has come into effect in Florida stating that if you create or sell lab-grown meat, you might face a second-degree misdemeanor charge, which is punishable by up to 60 days in jail or a $500 fine. Several other states including Alabama, Tennessee and Arizona are attempting to follow suit. What's the beef with not-beef? “Florida is fighting back against the global elite’s plan to force the world to eat meat grown in a petri dish or bugs to achieve their authoritarian goals,” Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said in a statement. Food and Wine has the full story.
Interesting video about the green credentials of meat substitutes. (I would also recommend subscribing to Simon Clark if you are at all interested in #ClimateChange topics.)
The first lab-grown burger cost $330,000 to create in 2013. The price has fallen to just under $10 per burger today, which is remarkable progress in just a decade.
It’s a remarkable scientific success, but the general public is divided over whether it will eat cultured meat (CM) products. Would you?
Dagnabbit, Pascaline!
