Beef sales volumes in the 13 weeks ending in mid-July, a crucial stretch encompassing both Memorial Day and July Fourth, fell 0.3% from a year earlier.
Americans will not give up meat anytime soon. It is culturally significant, as I imagine it is in many countries. We will probably go to lab grown meat when it gets good enough and cheap enough.
That was the case a few years ago. The industry has developed and already uses alternatives. The fetal serum would have been too expensive for commercial use either way.
We still don’t know how expensive the whole process will be though, it will certainly be a luxury item for quite some time, while the current plant-based meat is slowly becoming cheaper than real meat.

Lab “meat” will never be cheaper than growing it in mobile self feeding bioreactors.
Wouldn’t lab grown meat be vegan, if it’s be done without harming any animals?
The serum they feed those cells certainly harms animals. Lab meat is is huge scam.

Oh, I see
if you can’t pay for meat anymore…
You turn to crime …
USAians really do love their meat, huh? Can’t even imagine a veggie diet. Straight to crime.
I’m not even American and I’d do the same!
Look i get hating on us Americans but tell me what countries are vegan? Or even vegetarian? Or do you just mean a large portion of the population?
