Mammoth Meatball Mania: The Future of Lab-Grown Meat!
An Australian startup made a meatball from mammoth genes in a lab. They showed it in a science museum in Amsterdam. This is not a joke. The company is called Vow. They want people to talk about lab-grown meat. Lab-grown meat can be better for animals and the environment. Vow mixed mammoth genes with elephant genes and put them in sheep cells. The cells grew into a meatball. Lab-grown meat could reduce the impact of meat production on the planet. But it’s not ready for everyone to eat yet. Only Singapore has approved this kind of meat. Vow wants to sell lab-grown quail meat there later this year. The mammoth meatball is not for sale. They made it to start conversations about the future of food.
