An Australian company has lifted the glass cloche on a meatball made of lab-grown cultured meat using the genetic sequence from the long-extinct mastodon. The high-tech treat isn't available to eat yet - the startup says it is meant to fire up public debate about cultivated meat.
Vow used publicly available genetic information from the mammoth, filled missing parts with genetic data from its closest living relative, the African elephant, and inserted it into a sheep cell, Noakesmith said. Given the right conditions in a lab, the cells multiplied until there were enough to roll up into the meatball.
The mammoth meatball is a one-off and has not been tasted, even by its creators, nor is it planned to be put into commercial production. Instead, it was presented as a source of protein that would get people talking about the future of meat. He said the mammoth project with its unconventional gene source was an outlier in the new meat cultivation sector, which commonly focuses on traditional livestock — cattle, pigs and poultry.
So who’s eating it?
I’ll choose the grass fed cow thank you.
Why
It’s a tumor, lab-produced tumor.
Ewww.
EvelDick I’m too cool to understand what any of this means
Bhai, just buy meat from the market FFS. Pachyderm 🤦
It's called 'The DeSantis'
Is that Ron Desantis?
All the money and science in the world and still…
April 1st is the day after tomorrow. Had to check.
