Clean meat is meat that has been grown from the cell up opposed to born and predicted to be available in shops by the end of the year. One of the worlds first labs that create this clean meat is developed in the Netherlands and after 5 or so years of development and over £200,000, it looks like it may be soon available.
According to Josh Tetrick, CEO of clean meat manufacturer JUST, lab-grown meat products such as chicken nuggets and sausages could be available to order “before the end of 2018”. Josh Tetrick predicts that restaurants in the US and Asia will be the first to offer the new products, however there are still regulatory issues that will need to be solved before this can happen. Even PETA has been investing in clean meat technology over the last few years, “We believe it’s the first important step toward realising the dream of one day putting environmentally sound, humanely produced real meat into the hands and mouths of the people who insist on eating animal flesh,” the charity said in a statement.
