Will You Eat a Plant-Based Steak After Seeing How a 3D Printer Builds One?

It has been said that sausage is something you can enjoy, but you wouldn’t want to see it made.

Then, would you prefer your “meat” extruded from a nozzle in a laboratory?

More to the point: Would such a food be as delicious and nutritious as the original item it is trying to displace in the market?

Redefine Meat, a startup out of Israel, is one of the latest companies attempting to sell plant-based alternatives to actual meat. Last week the firm announced a partnership that will see its products distributed throughout Europe, according to Reuters.

Specifically, Redefine Meat is trying to introduce its steak cuts: an offering that is neither real steak, nor cut. The meat analogue is manufactured by 3D printing. Layer upon layer of plant-derived biomass is laid down until something approximating the size and shape of a real slab of steak is complete.

Reuters released video showing the process in action.

No. Look up pea protein. It’s a waste product from making crystal noodles in China.

It shows how crazy vegans are. They won't eat meat, but they prefer some artifical tumor built in a factory.

I am not likely to eat one in the first place, let alone after seeing how it was made.

Meat IS plant-based.

Cows eat grass plants, then I eat cows, on a sesame seed bun.

So in order for it to taste good, I’ll bet the red stuff is ground up steak and the white stuff is ground up steak fat.

Paleo is the way to go...perimeter of your grocery store.

I still indulge one meal a week. (Pizza, pasta, dessert, etc)

Sooner or later Cargill amd Tyson are going to do this using mechanically separated meat that would normally go into dog food and sell it to McDonalds as a McDelmonico with a huge marketing push behind it as a more responsible way of using animal protein. Then they’ll lobby government to have the percentages of fillers and nonmeat components obfuscated so they can claim that the barely meat extruded food product is somehow more healthy than real meat.

I’m slowly getting somewhat back to paleo.

The surgeon had me on low residue until yesterday.

As the stuff I bought goes away I replace with paleo stuff.
