Lab-grown meat start-ups Eat Just and Upside Foods reportedly had valuations at over $1 billion each. And the USDA greenlit the sale of the first lab-grown meat in the U.S. market last year.
The enthusiasm that drew billions to the industry, however, has waned in the last several months.
Initial investor capital dried up, production has proven to be very expensive, touted environmental benefits were shown to be either mistaken or fraudulent, scientists have questioned its safety and companies have been unable to convince consumers to buy their products.
Industry leaders like Upside Foods reported earlier this year that it would pause its major factory expansion plans.
Even the Times pronounced the lab-grown meat “revolution” to be “dead,” and venture capital funding for food technology took a major dive in 2023.
Plant-based meat companies like Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat also faltered, with many restaurants pulling the fake meat from their menus and profits plummeting after consumer scrutiny of the ultra-processed products and disappointment with the products’ taste and affordability.
…it doesn’t surprise me. Yesterday a friend of mine had Dannon you hurt “light and fat free” or something like that so I looked what sugars they used and THAT IS where I noticed “bioengineered”
I read your comment and ran to my fridge to see what was in my yo Hurt! All organic and "natural" (what ever natural means) BUT, it did have guar gum. I did not see anything about bio engineered.. but who the hell really knows what is in our doof!
There may be a treatment option open under Obamacare for Jordanitis.
Corn cider this: UNLESS a You Hurt is in the FROZEN section then it will have NO LIVE CULTURES IN IT because a LIVE culture (real or SIM) would grow and create a froth in the cooler section. People are eating dead bugs.

They're so bold they don't care anymore to cover it up.
Are you referring to the movie version of Soylant?
or that silicon valley startup Soylent where some asshat was selling goo that was making people sick, vomit, and have diarrhea?
I've always thought that your speaking and writing were very effluent.
This one new here from Pat was a full day prior to being flagged in bold fat lines on "sotn"..

Pat is obviously clued in to hot press sources before "the hot press collection rooms" posts 'bout the new same old pigs..
Any flay..
