Growing animals to feed nearing 8 billion humans was not ecologically sustainable before the COVID-19 outbreak, now, the spreading realization that most epidemics cross to humans from animals is another factor accelerating appetite for alternative food sources.
An explosion of plant-based chefs and recipes are showing more people every week that non-animal diets can be extraordinarily delicious and healthy. In the United States, plant milk sales grew 61% from 2012 to 2018.[26] Oat milk sales increased by 250% in Canada during 2019 alone.[27]
For those still open to highly processed foods, plant-based meats have also been rapidly gaining market share. Lab-grown meats are an offering for those who can’t imagine not eating animal flesh. All of these options are the future of food. See Cell-based meat benefits include, helping save our future, advocates say:
By now you’ve likely heard about the concept: “clean” meat, they call it. A small sample of stem cells is taken from a cow or a chicken, and those cells are cultivated to make edible meat, without having to raise or slaughter an animal to acquire it. If you’re already on board with this idea, you’re part of a growing appetite for cell-based meat. If you’re still iffy, get ready to “Meat the Future.”That’s the name of a documentary that follows Memphis Meats, one of the players in the rapidly growing industry of cell-based meat. Memphis Meats is in a race to perfect its product and replicate the look, feel texture and taste of animal-harvested meat and bring it to your plate at a reasonable price.
