GOOD Meat, the cultivated meat division of Eat Just Inc. just announced that it has contracted with bioreactor construction company ABEC to build a large-scale cultivated meat facility in the United States. When operational, gigantic vats at the factory will produce 30 million pounds of chicken and beef meats annually. The company nurtures real animal muscle and fat cells in a growth medium derived from plants and yeast. Their cultivated chicken is already being sold in Singapore.
Assuming that the company grows 15 million pounds of each meat, that would be enough chicken and beef to feed 150,000 and 250,000 Americans respectively. That much cultivated meat would also mean 6 million fewer chickens and 20,000 fewer cows would need to be slaughtered each year.
