US approves chicken made from cultivated cells, the nation’s first ‘lab-grown’ meat

The Agriculture Department gave the green light to Upside Foods and Good Meat, firms that had been racing to be the first in the U.S. to sell meat that doesn’t come from slaughtered animals — what’s now being referred to as “cell-cultivated” or “cultured” meat as it emerges from the laboratory and arrives on dinner plates.

The move launches a new era of meat production aimed at eliminating harm to animals and drastically reducing the environmental impacts of grazing, growing feed for animals and animal waste.

For the first time, U.S. regulators on Wednesday approved the sale of chicken made from animal cells, allowing two California companies to offer “lab-grown” meat to the nation’s restaurant tables and eventually, supermarket shelves.

--- "The Agriculture Department gave the green light to Upside Foods and Good Meat"

A demonstration of how the corporate capture of government agencies is proceeding. Chemically cultured "meat" requires the redefinition of the word "meat."

I prefer redefining the term, Agriculture Department, to another corporate shill accepting donations for politicians and beyond.

Only a matter of time before they start cultivating human cells for the cannibal meat market.

It's a generational thing. All of the new chicken places in my small town feature chicken bits, with no bones attached, and that seems to appeal to the younger folks. I prefer fried chicken with the meat still on the bones, which implies that the food once had a face.

Now, when the Dr. Frankensteins in the lab develop an egg-like substance without a shell, the removal of chickens from the face of the earth can begin.

One step closer to real life Soylent Green...? The globalists are getting closer to their wet-dream of controlling our “food supply”. All they’ll have to do is throw a few insects in the mix... maybe 15 or 20 percent... and voila. The peons’ new daily wafer allowance.... leaving plenty of all the good stuff ...the ‘real’ food....for the ruling elites.

Oh wait. They’ll also have to figure out a way to include some ingredients from aborted fetuses... in order to satisfy their ‘in yer face’ factor.
