UK first European country to approve lab-grown meat, starting with pet food
The UK has authorized the sale of lab-grown meat for pet food, becoming the first European country to do so, approved by the Animal & Plant Health Agency on July 2.
Meatly, a UK-based company, is now allowed to sell cultivated chicken cells for pet food and plans to launch products by the end of the year.
Linus Pardoe from the Good Food Institute Europe stated that the approval represents a significant milestone in cultivated meat innovation.
