Lab Grown Meat – Are the Stakes too High?

[Andrew Spencer]

Hi all

From today’s edition, what do you think about the prospects of success for companies that produce lab-grown meat such as Eat Just?

I’m not convinced given the cost of these products when the cost of living is already pressuring households.

Do you think they will face tough competition from the range of plant-based alternatives or will it be a huge success?

Interested to hear what you think!

Hey Andrew,

I definitely think lab-grown meat will be embraced by many as an alternative to plant-based food due to the fact that not much plant-based food can truly replicate the feel and texture of real meat and most people, whether they are trying to mix things up or want to move away from a meat-based diet, would want something that reminds them of meat.

On the issue of cost, it could become cheaper if these companies are able to grow to scale.
