Cultivated meat

Do dishes made of algae or insects have a chance of finding a place on our tables as alternative protein food (APF) choices? Why are some consumers open to this change, while others remain cautious? An international group of researchers, including scientists from SWPS University, analyzed hundreds of studies to investigate this issue.

Around the world, the demand for meat is growing, despite associated environmental and animal welfare costs. Although lab-grown—or cultured—meat could be part of the answer, scientists have yet to perfect one crucial detail: the taste.

Governor Greg Gianforte recently signed into law a bill to ban the manufacturing and sale of lab-grown meat in Montana. “If you’ve ever had the pleasure of enjoying a cut…

A breakthrough in cultivated meat research could accelerate the production of realistic, animal-free meat alternatives, British scientists s...

Researchers are growing the food of the future in this laboratory: meat that uses kelp as an alternative to animal-based ingredients.

North Jeolla Province signed a memorandum of understanding with the Embassy of the Netherlands in Seoul on Tuesday to collaborate on developing alternative proteins, a move aimed at strengthening bilateral cooperation in the growing food-tech sector. The agreement was signed at the North Jeolla provincial government office during Dutch Ambassador to Korea Peter van der Vliet’s first official visit to the province since assuming his post. Under the agreement, the two sides will conduct a joint analysis of the alternative protein industry, promote exchanges between delegations, foster partnerships between companies and research institutes and explore joint participation in “Horizon Europe” — the European Union’s largest multinational research and innovation program. Alternative proteins, derived from sources such as soy, wheat and yeast, are considered a sustainable solution to the environmental challenges posed by conventional meat production. Provincial officials expressed hope that

Lab-grown meat causes heated debates. Proponents see benefits for the climate and animal welfare. Opponents worry about a Frankenstein food they regard as risky and unnatural. Whatever your opinion, the technology underpinning cultivated meat is moving fast to create large pieces of muscle tissue.
