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.

Absolutely. It’s easier to maintain discipline and not “fall off the wagon” if you know cheat day is coming.
It probably helps the metabolism anyhow.
I also vary my caloric intake. Humans aren’t robots.
Hitting the same caloric intake daily is not natural.
Caloric intake should be stochastic, as that’s how life is naturally.
It’s quite healthy, and you can vary caloric and carbohydrate intake per individual needs.
I wouldn’t eat it even if I didn’t watch one being made.
The great thing about a strict diet is you know can eat whatever you want on cheat day and it won’t make a bit of difference.
“No. Look up pea protein. It’s a waste product from making crystal noodles in China.”
Not used in these meats.
Did you make that up?
Just got a pastured half hog Monday before last! Got fat for rendering into lard & also liver ... most nutritious part of the hog. I’ve used some ground pork & will be doing one of the larger roasts this weekend.
nope, nope, nope.
I prefer plant-based cows
Looks better than pink slime, and that’s saying something! lol
Puke!
I was on it for a month prior to the recent surgery of about two weeks ago.
Admittedly I am still a little food paranoid for now.
Definitely.
I remember eating low calorie and super clean in Basic Training.
I was in Tech School, and I decided to walk to Burger King on a Saturday. I got a large double cheeseburger meal with large fries and large Coke.
I felt so sick when I was done.
You all knock yourselves out.....not touching the shat as long as I breath.
You can always ease into it.
No need to go from 0 to 100...
Yuck. I haven’t eaten meat since 1984 and I would not eat fake meat either. I get plenty of protein and all the nutrients one needs elsewhere. I am healthy and happy.
There are folks who seem to think vegetarians are always lefties but it’s not that way.
It’s been baby steps on introducing foods.
That’s good. One thing at a time allows you to find things that “don’t sit well”.
NO HELL NO and NO F*** way
I have the same diet . . . well mostly. I eat pizza,pasta and desserts six days a week and then have a paleo day.
That’s pretty fascinating, to be honest. Almost forty years without meat is quite an accomplishment.
