But first, the practical perspective: Neither company has yet had its US-approved cultivated chicken product certified as halal or kosher. Religious and ethical vegetariansBecause cell-cultured meat is developed from animal cells, it’s not considered vegetarian by Upside Foods or Good Meat. But people who don’t eat meat for animal welfare or environmental reasons may want to give cultivated meat a try. In this case, the question of whether cultivated meat is considered meat, from a religious perspective, is significant. For cultivated meat to be considered kosher, it “would require that it came from a kosher slaughtered animal.” Chicken that is grown from cells taken from a kosher, unfertilized egg would be considered kosher, he said.

Two years after Singapore greenlighted lab-grown meat for human consumption, mass production has yet to start. The technological, regulatory and scale barriers to entry for cultivated meat are very high compared to plant-based meat, said Didier Toubia, chief executive of Israel's Aleph Farms, which makes cultivated beef steak. "It's too high and it's embarrassing ... We lose money every time someone enjoys our cultivated chicken," Eat Just CEO Josh Tetrick said. Hong Kong-based Avant Meats is more bullish than Eat Just, with ambitions to make a premium food, cultivated fish maw. Fish maw is the swim bladder of a fish, a delicacy prized in China that could fetch up to thousands of dollars per kilogram, depending on its grade.

☆ Meat cultivated from cow cells is kosher, Israel's chief rabbi rules

[1/2] People prepare Aleph Farms' cultivated thin-cut beef steaks in this handout image taken November 9, 2022. Cultivated meat, grown from animal cells in a lab or manufacturing plant, has been getting a lot of attention as a way to sidestep the environmental toll of the meat industry and address concerns over animal welfare. Jewish dietary law designates kosher meat as having come from a cow slaughtered in accordance with ritual - and requires that it be kept and consumed separately from dairy. Aleph Farms says it collects sample cells from a living animal and then grows more in a cultivator that mimics conditions in the animal's body. While the decision was specific for Aleph Farm's process, it sets a foundation for others.

După cum explică chiar și experții din mai multe domenii, producerea cărnii în laboratoare din spațiu sau aflate pe alte planete reprezintă o idee extrem de interesantă. Cu toate acestea, în prezent, inițiativa acestui start-up nu este mult mai mult decât o mână de posibile abordări și parteneriate strategice cu companii de tehnologie și agenții spațiale. Rezultate încurajatoareAleph Farms a finalizat deja primul său experiment la bordul Stației Spațiale Internaționale anul trecut, o colaborare cu 3D Bioprinting Solutions, o companie rusă care activează în domeniul biotehnologiei. Reușita de la bordul Stației Spațiale Internaționale a fost considerată „primul experiment spațial de obținere a cărnii care nu a implicat sacrificarea unui animal” și a prezentat o dovadă a fezabilității conceptului de imprimare 3D a țesuturilor musculare la scară mică. Trebuie precizat că aceste țesuturi printate au avut la bază mostre de celule vii de animale și că rezultatul a fost, după cum au explicat oamenii de știință o mică bucată de friptură.
