  • Not having to slaughter animals to serve meat is absolutely a "we're living in the future" moment. Although cultivated meat has been deployed to Singapore, according to a BBC article, it's not widespread:

    That partnership lasted a few months and this year Huber's has started offering a chicken sandwich and a chicken pasta dish to the general public - albeit only once a week with limited dining slots available.

    It looks like the primary issues they're facing is scale. They need to up the scale considerably to match demand.

    I see Beyond, Impossible, and spin-offs everywhere, so they have some tough competition to unseat, even though their products actually meat and not just substitution.
