REUTERS/Leah Millis/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsSept 11 (Reuters) - Lab-grown meat can be labeled kosher and halal as long as its cells are derived in methods compliant with religious standards, according to two panels of experts commissioned by the nascent industry. "It’s another marker around making cultivated meat a real solution," said Josh Tetrick, CEO of GOOD Meat. More than 12 million people in the United States eat kosher products and 8 million eat halal products, according to the OU and Islamic Services of America, a halal certification agency. Regulators cleared cultivated chicken for U.S. consumption earlier this year and it has since been served at some high-end restaurants.

Difficulty competing with conventional meat on price has plagued the plant-based meat sector, which has failed to meet market share expectations. To be price competitive, cultivated meat must reach a production cost of $2.92 per pound, Goncalves said. Last year, governments spent about $635 million on alternative proteins, about $167 million of which was for cultivated meat, according to the group. China Chilcano's chefs said the product behaved very similarly to conventional chicken and offered some improvements, like rapid absorption of marinades.
