Supporters say lab-grown meat can reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the risk of disease, pollution and the destruction of wild habitats.
Texas Gov. Greg Abbott has signed a bill making it illegal to sell lab-grown meat in the state.
In 2023, the U.S. Department of Agriculture approved the country’s first lab-grown chicken, meat produced from chicken cells without harming or slaughtering the animals.
Supporters say lab-grown meat can reduce greenhouse gas emissions, the risk of disease, pollution and the destruction of wild habitats.
But the concept of lab-produced meat has raised concerns among many policymakers. In Texas, where ranching is a major livelihood, officials worry about the potential impact on traditional industries.
“This ban is a massive win for Texas ranchers, producers, and consumers,” said Texas Agriculture Commissioner Sid Miller. “Texans have a God-given right to know what’s on their plate, and for millions of Texans, it better come from a pasture, not a lab. It’s plain cowboy logic that we must safeguard our real, authentic meat industry from synthetic alternatives.”
Texas is not the first state to enact such a ban. Florida and Alabama have passed similar laws.
Violating the Texas law, which goes into effect in September, could result in a felony charge and/or a fine of up to $25,000.

Government to the rescue.
.
“This isn’t vat stuff. They raise a whole animal for YEARS and then kill it…”
Well the problem is that it isn’t exactly a free market with 2/3 of the federal government plus Gates and Co trying to put cows out of business. It’s not a level playing field.
Any fake food stuffs have never turned out to be good for us.
Fake breast milk in formula.
Fake fat in hydrogenated vegetable oil.
Fake sugar in artificial sweeteners.
Fake food coloring in junk food.
What on God’s green earth makes them think fake meat will be any better?????
Good, because our bodies know what to do with real food.
They don’t know what to do with fake “food”.
It will kill people eating lab grown meat.How stupid and evil are people.
Soylent Green is people. And meat.
And how is this the government’s business?
The same way forcing experimental "vaccines" on people is the government's business.
The thought of it is really gross. 😣
Also need to reinstall the Country Of Origin Labeling law.
