The biggest bioreactor lab designed for cultivating no kill meat plans to open a shop in the US.
Good Meat, the lab grown meat division of Eat Just, Inc., announced via press release earlier today that it is building ten 250,000-liter bioreactors that it claims could make as much as 15,000 tons of meat per year without killing a single animal. The company plans to open a US branch in late 2022, initially making ersatz chicken and beef products.
Josh Tetrick, the chief executive of Good Meat's parent company, told the Guardian in a report published today that his grandchildren are going to ask him why he ate meat from slaughtered animals.
Good Meat doesn't require animal slaughter, but it will still use cells from cell banks or eggs. factory chickens are still exploited for their eggs, and those birds are almost always treated badly.
The meat is not approved for sale in the US by the FDA. Good Meat says it is working with the FDA on approval for public sale, but can not say when that will happen.
It's off-putting to think of several thousand pounds of meat. Reducing factory farm suffering and our national carbon footprint is worth a try.
