The US government has approved the sale of chicken meat grown in a lab

The US government has approved the sale of chicken meat grown in a laboratory, developed by California-based companies Upside Foods and Good Meat. Lab-grown meat, which is produced from cells in a lab, is seen as a way to reduce animal cruelty and the environmental impact of traditional meat production. Chicken is currently the only lab-grown meat permitted in the US, but lab-grown meat from other animals may become available in the future. The products are different from plant-based alternatives as they are considered "real" meat. However, lab-grown meat is expensive and will initially be limited to restaurants before potentially reaching supermarkets in the future.Show more
