MANUFACTURED MEAT

In 2013, we were intrigued by Mark Post's demonstration of the world first's artificially grown meat... In the years just before the announcement, he and his team had grown some muscle tissue. Strand by strand: about 10000 fibers in total. They added some other ingredients (i.e. flour) and created a ‘hamburger'... Nowadays, the growing of food in factories has become commonplace. Not only for plants (think greenhouses) but also for animal products. Think, for instance, yogurts or cheese. Also, many medicines are grown using bacteria.
