If you feel bad for the animals when you eat meat, a solution is coming.

UPSIDE Foods, a California-based lab-grown meat company, recently announced that it received approval from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) to start commercial production and sales of its cultivated chicken.

In November 2022, the company received the green light from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA).

"I'm thrilled to share that cultivated meat will now be available for consumers in the U.S.," UPSIDE Foods Founder and CEO Dr. Uma Valeti said in a press release. "This approval will fundamentally change how meat makes it to our table. It's a giant step forward toward a more sustainable future — one that preserves choice and life."

UPSIDE Foods is a unicorn — a privately held startup company valued at more than $1 billion. In April 2022, the company closed a $400 million Series C funding round, bringing its valuation to over $1 billion.

The company is backed by many heavyweight investors, including the Abu Dhabi Growth Fund, business magnate Sir Richard Branson, SoftBank Group Corp. and Microsoft Corp. Co-Founder Bill Gates.

While high-profile investors are embracing this new technology, traditional agriculture remains relevant.

For instance, Gates has made significant investments in the agriculture sector. According to a 2022 land report, Gates owns around 275,000 acres of farmland in the U.S.

When asked about his extensive ownership of farmland in a Reddit Ask Me Anything session earlier this year, Gates said, "I own less than 1/4000 of the farmland in the U.S. I have invested in these farms to make them more productive and create more jobs. There isn't some grand scheme involved — in fact, all these decisions are made by a professional investment team."

While Gates has been busy investing in farm properties, new companies have innovated ways for people to earn passive income in the real estate market. Here's how to invest in rental properties with as little as $100 while staying completely hands-off.

Whether you like the idea of lab-grown meat or not, the technology addresses the issue of animal welfare: The production of cultured meat does not require the rearing and slaughtering of animals.

How To Try This New Culinary Delight​

UPSIDE Foods did not provide a date for when its products will become available. But it did announce a partnership with Michelin three-star chef Dominique Crenn to launch its cultivated chicken at her San Francisco restaurant Bar Crenn.

The company is holding a contest "where consumers can enter for a chance to be among the first in the United States to eat UPSIDE's cultivated chicken." You can check UPSIDE's social media accounts for details.

UPSIDE is not the only company that makes lab-grown meat. GOOD Meat, a division of food technology company Eat Just Inc., has also received approval from the USDA and the FDA for its cultivated chicken to be sold to American consumers.

Also based in California, GOOD Meat said that production is starting immediately.

But restaurants are still the best bet if you want to be among the first to taste the new product. GOOD Meat said that its first batch of cultivated chicken "will be sold to celebrated restaurateur and humanitarian Chef José Andrés." Andrés is the owner of José Andrés Group, which operates more than 30 restaurants.

The company added that a yet-to-be-disclosed Washington, D.C., restaurant will be the first in the U.S. to serve GOOD Meat's cultivated chicken.

GOOD Meat has already been selling its products in Singapore.

did you genuinely believe humanity would kill for meat consumption till the end of our existence?

 

[Chrishaune]

did you genuinely believe humanity would kill for meat consumption till the end of our existence?

Yep.

And Bill Gates is not going to come anywhere close to stopping it.

He'll be dead and people will still have methane producing cows, and the world won't end until it's time for it to end.

 

[ORDER_66]

I thought this was gonna be the future of food, fixing our hunger problems why they so averse to this??? Let the free market decide

Yep.

Cows, Methane, and Climate Change

How do beef and dairy cows contribute to climate change? Livestock agriculture is a source of methane, a powerful greenhouse gas.

Can we make cows produce less methane?​

What cows eat has a big effect on how much methane they produce. Digesting certain types of food produces more methane than digesting other foods. For example, digesting hay and grass produces more methane than corn. Scientists are studying alternatives to cow feed that may produce less methane.

For example, scientists are trying adding seaweed to the cows’ food. They hope that seaweed can inhibit a specific enzyme. That enzyme is involved in the production of methane while the cow digests its food. A 2018 experiment showed that adding seaweed to a cow’s diet may reduce their methane production by as much as half! But researchers have found one problem with this solution: cows don’t seem to like the salty taste of seaweed very much!

Other scientists are taking a genetic approach. A study published in 2019 found that the type and amount of methane-producing bacteria found in a cow’s stomach is related to its genetic makeup. Knowing this, scientists can breed cows that have less of these bacteria in their stomachs. This will eventually create a type of genetically-modified cow that produces less methane!

In a study published in Scientific Reports in 2023, researchers from Scotland’s Rural College discovered that a chemical extract from daffodils could significantly reduce methane emissions from livestock. The extract, called haemanthamine, decreased methane emissions from artificial cow stomachs by 96%. Haemanthamine is found in plants of the Amaryllis family and shows potential as an anti-cancer agent.

Ever After Foods Nabs $10M to Make Cultivated Meat 90% Cheaper

Ever After Foods has secured $10M for its bioreactor platform to let companies scale up cultivated meat production at 90% lower costs.

Israeli biotech firm Ever After Foods has secured $10M to accelerate the growth of its bioreactor platform that allows cultivated meat producers to scale up manufacturing while driving down costs.​

Ever After Foods has received $10M from strategic investors in the EU and the US to support its scalability platform for cultivated meat, which offers a cost-effective and highly efficient manufacturing solution for producers.

The funding round includes a second investment from Israeli cellular agriculture company Pluri and the Tnuva Group (the country’s largest food company), which formed Ever After Foods as a joint venture in 2022.

“The current investment round in Ever After Foods is led by new global partners, and includes Tnuva’s renewed commitment as well. We believe this validates Pluri’s strategy and underscores the quality of our technology and solutions,” said Pluri CEO and president Yaky Yanay.

Formerly called Plurinuva, Ever After Foods has exclusive licencing rights to use Pluri’s technology and intellectual property to develop, manufacture and commercialise cultivated meat. It is starting with beef and poultry cells, but the latest investment has extended the licence to include seafood as well.

The startup launched its bioreactor platform last year, with the ability to produce 10kg of cultivated meat mass with just a 10-litre tank at the time. Since then, however, it says it has “swiftly advanced” its technology and manufacturing platform, demonstrating the natural production of muscle and fat tissues for various animal cells, hitting the taste and texture touchpoints so crucial to consumers.

This tech enables Ever After Foods to offer a 90% reduction in costs for its B2B clients, compared to “the second-best technology in the field”. Moreover, the bioreactors yield up to six times more protein and 700 times more lipids from each cell, offering better flavour and nutritional value.

The cell cultivation process is also much, much lighter on the planet than industrially raised livestock, boasting 93% less air pollution, 95% less land, and 94% less water.

“Ever After Foods’ unique and innovative production platform empowered the change to our business model. The shift to a technology enabler will allow us to serve more players in the value chain,” said Ever After Foods CEO Eyal Rosenthal.

“Securing funding from new global partners is a testament to our team’s tireless dedication to solving the primary production barriers for the next step toward a more sustainable meat industry. In addition to the funding, working with new partners in the space will deepen our industry network and speed up our expansion into international markets as we drive the next era of scalable cultivated meat production.”

Tackling the cost and scale hurdles​

Scalability and costs are two of the most pressing challenges holding back the progress of the cultivated meat industry. One investor told Reuters that these products need to reach manufacturing costs of $2.92 per pound to be price-competitive with conventional meat. But while companies have managed to bring down these costs by 99% in less than a decade, analysis by McKinsey suggests it will still take until 2030 for these proteins to become as cheap as conventional meat.

This is a problem both locally and internationally. “Scaling up manufacturing for Israeli startups is challenging due to infrastructure costs, mirroring challenges encountered by startups worldwide,” Alla Voldman, VP of strategy and policy at industry think tank the Good Food Institute Israel, told Green Queen last month.

“Consequently, most new Israeli startups tend to focus more on business-to-business (B2B) solutions, aiming to fill these industry gaps and overcome scalability obstacles,” she added.

McKinsey further notes that cultivated meat companies would need over 17 times the fermentation capacity that currently exists in the global pharmaceutical industry to meet the growth demands of the industry. Responding to this need, in Israel, contract development and manufacturing organisations that have traditionally served pharmaceutical companies have now begun to expand to the cultivated meat sector.

To address the cost challenge, government agency the Israel Innovation Authority established a research consortium in 2022, comprising 14 companies and 10 academic labs equipped with an $18M investment to develop cost-effective methods to produce cultivated meat.

Israel is one of only three countries to approve the sale of cultivated meat, greenlighting local startup Aleph Farms‘ application in January. The country has made food tech one of its top five priority R&D areas, and attracted 10% of all VC funding ($1.2B) in the alternative protein sector in the last decade.

By 2030, the industry is expected to produce 10,000 additional jobs (a third of which would be manufacturing roles), have more than 200 companies and over a dozen manufacturing facilities, and contribute $2.5B to Israel’s economy through exports, local wages, corporate taxes, and more.
