Lab-grown pork sausages are made from a single cell from a pig
Many Brits are taking advantage of the sunny weather to enjoy back-to-back barbecues, with fridges stocked with burgers, buns and, of course, sausages. Daan Luining, co-founder and CTO of Meatable, said: 'This isn't just like meat, it is meat - 100 per cent delicious meat, identical on every level, but without any of the drawbacks. The sausage is the first product to be announced by the Dutch company, which aims to create real meat without harming the environment or animals Daan Luining, co-founder and CTO of Meatable, said: 'This isn't just like meat, it is meat - 100 per cent delicious meat, identical on every level, but without any of the drawbacks.' It is not currently legal to sell cultivated meat in Europe without approval from regulators, but the Meatable team hope their product will be on shelves by 2025. The process of creating the sausages also does not require the controversial fetal bovine serum, that has been used in cultured meat production as a supplement for cell feed The Meatable team claim their sausage has the same structure, texture, glossiness and pronounced pork flavour of one made from ground pig shoulder meat.
