My first taste of their cultivated meat, duck in this case. It was delicious and indistinguishable from duck, because it was duck. It just did not quack like a duck.
Future generations will marvel that we thought we had to grow and slaughter a whole animal to get all the yummy meat that we might like to eat.
Today’s News: “Consumers are hungry for products that are humane, sustainable and delicious, and UPSIDE Foods is meeting them at the center of their plates with meat they can feel good about. This has the potential to revolutionize the way people eat and is incredibly exciting. THE WORLD 20 YEARS FROM NOW MAY BE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT DUE TO UPSIDE FOODS, which is why I’ve personally invested in the company,” said John Mackey, CEO of Whole Foods.
“Perhaps more important, the company also announced that its first consumer product, cultured chicken, will be available to customers this year, pending regulatory approval. To make its cell-basd meat at scale, UPSIDE has broken ground on a production facility in the San Francisco Bay Area. The full-stack facility will produce, package and ship cultured meat at what the company says is a larger capacity than any other cell-based meat company.”
“Our team introduced the world to cultured meat, and the evolution to UPSIDE Foods communicates our passion and potential to make our favorite foods healthier for the planet,” said Uma Valeti, CEO and founder of UPSIDE Foods. “Our new name showcases the work we are doing to make eating meat a force for good. We can’t wait for consumers to try our UPSIDE chicken soon. If you love chicken and the planet, UPSIDE is for you.”
“Grown completely from animal cells, the UPSIDE chicken is real meat cultivated without the need to raise an animal, and is not a plant-based meat alternative. Chicken was chosen as UPSIDE Food’s launchpad to commercialization because it is quickly becoming the meat of choice for consumers around the world, and its versatility lends itself to a diverse set of recipes and culinary applications spanning geographic regions and styles.”
“With meat demand expected to double in the next 30 years, meeting this demand is unsustainable using current production methods. The UPSIDE Foods’ pilot plant will be an international model for creating real, delicious, resource-efficient meat.”

P.S. Once we have a viable alternative, we will finally an unflinching look at the pandemic-spawning methane-belching disaster that is meat manufacturing today.
