new company make meat in the lab in 2018 (upvote is needed)

A new company plans to promote synthetic meat next year

New type of meat

Hampton Creek, an emerging company that develops plant alternatives to animal foods, has announced that the meat secretly developed in the laboratory last year will be available in 2018. If the company's schedule is accurate, its products will reach markets before products Its closest competitor, Memphis, has been in the market for three years. The company expects to sell its products in stores in 2021.

One of the biggest problems that Hampton Creek will face in achieving its goals is the cost of "clean meat," and despite the fact that the price of meat developed by laboratory has fallen by 99% over the past three years, after the cost of the first hamburger laboratory stage $ 230 thousand, but the price of meat Clean is still high compared to traditional meat, and the company has not yet announced the price of its products.

One of the company's most important research is the use of plant nutrients in meat development rather than the embryonic bovine serum used in the production of most mutton-derived meat, but the use of this method will not be sufficient to obtain the final end product, said Josh Titrick, CEO of Hampton Creek "The ability to develop a battery does not mean the ability to develop an electric car," says Mr Gawartz.

Experts have divided on the ability of Hampton Creek to achieve its goal by 2018. Some cite the company's previous products when it developed and market Just May products, while others are optimistic about the company's schedule, including Bruce Friedlisch, Who told Business Insider that this goal will be achieved when there is sufficient resources.

Clean Meat Revolution

Clean, cost-competitive meat and price competition will bring about a series of major changes in the global food and environment market that will not only dramatically reduce animal suffering, but will also reduce greenhouse gas emissions. According to estimates by the World Resources Institute, the meat sector accounts for 13.5 percent of emissions Globally, if there is no change to reduce these emissions, this proportion will increase in the future as the population of the Earth increases to 9.7 billion by 2050.

The production of alternative meat products has recently increased. These products can be divided into three types: the plant-based species such as the Dead Mate peas, the more sustainable meat sources, such as the corns of the edible corns, the meat developed in vitro, Produced by Hampton Creek and Memphis Meat.

The human race has to radically change the amount of pollution it causes if it wants to survive, and changing the eating method is the main turning point in this change. Meat substitutes are therefore an important step towards preserving humanity's future, so we hope that Hampton Creek will fulfill its promise.
