Florida To Ban Lab Grown Meat
A new bill was signed on Wednesday by Florida Governor Rob DeSantis that will ban any lab grown meat. Whether it be sold or made, Florida, along with other states that include Tennessee, Alabama & Arizona are not down with meat that was man made, being served, or distributed.
If you’re wondering what lab made meat is, it’s called cultivated meat. It has garnered a lot of attention over the years, because there have been millions of dollars spent on technology to create an alternative on how we process meat in our country, that would be more “climate friendly.”
The way lab made, or cultivated meat is made, is by taking a cell sample from an animal and growing it in a metal vessel. Those cells will then multiply, and be given water vitamins, acids, etc. and this is all done in what is called a bioreactor. It’s actually a hard process, especially if you’re trying to make enough to sell publicly.
DeSantis’ focus is on “saving the beef,” and according to NBCNews.com said, “Florida is fighting back against the global elite’s plan to force the world to eat meat grown in a petri dish or bugs to achieve their authoritarian goals.” Companies that have received the ok from U.S. Regulators, are fighting back on this bill, with some feeling that it’s discriminating & could jeopardizes the U. S’s lead in biotech, that will allow other countries to take advantage.
