As of Wednesday, the Agriculture Department officially approved the sale of cell-cultured "chicken." Two U.S. companies, Upside Foods and Good Meats, will now be able to legally sell their products in the U.S. Apart from Singapore, the U.S. is now only the second country in the world where this cell cultivation is legal for sale.
Although it will be a while before you can buy this in local stores, this is a huge step forward for these corporate-backed fake meat companies. With this approval, this "substance" will be available for sale in two restaurants, one located in San Francisco and the other in Washington State.
These products are far from real chicken meat. By taking a cell from a real chicken, it is then brought into a lab, placed in a bioreactor (which multiplies the cells), and then formed into different cuts of meat.
Both companies celebrated this as a significant win, claiming it to be the future of food because apparently the current way we eat meat (which we have done for thousands of years) is killing our Earth.
Rightfully so, many people in the agriculture space are frankly upset about this being allowed. However, when your company is backed by Bill Gates, giant corporations, and the World Economic Forum, it should come as no surprise.
This is just the first step in the overall big vision of these groups for everyday Americans to be eating crickets and bugs in the name of sustainability.
The beautiful thing is, as much as these companies push this, there is absolutely no sign of people going along with it. As we explained in our previous article, Beyond Meat's valuation has dropped by $13 billion.
It's simple, Americans want REAL meat, raised by real farmers the way God intended. That is exactly why Dude Food is committed to standing up against this fake "meat" agenda and providing you with American meat.
