Eat Just, the parent company of GOOD Meat, also noted in a statement that they have been selling their “meat without the slaughter” products overseas for three years, saying in part: “We have been the only company selling cultivated meat anywhere in the world since we launched in Singapore in 2020, and now it's approved to sell to consumers in the world's largest economy.” The cultivated meat is created in a manner that resembles the brewing of beer, according to Upside Foods, as cells taken directly from animals or their fertilized eggs are grown in large metal drums. GFI president Bruce Friedrich called the approval a breakthrough that is another step toward enabling “the world to diversify protein production while slashing emissions, increasing food security, reducing risks to public health, and freeing up lands and waters for restoration and recovery.”īelvita breakfast sandwich recalls: Belvita recall: Two breakfast sandwich varieties recalled after possible nut contamination The future of meat?
