Meat, sugar and butter grown in the lab

How efficient is it to grow meat? Lets have a look. Who is doing it? IFT? We talked to Ivy Farm Technologies in Oxford who are ready to go with lab-grown steaks, made from cells taken from Wagyu and Aberdeen Angus cows.

Can you have a fatty steak or streaky bacon?

It takes two years at least to grow most steaks.
