Lab-grown meat sold as pet food

2nd February 2025
A dog treat made from lab-grown meat has gone on sale at Pets at Home in a move the retailer claims is a world first. Chick Bites are made from plant-based ingredients combined with cultivated meat, which is produced by growing cells and does not require the raising or slaughter of animals. The manufacturer, Meatly, said the chicken was produced from a single sample of cells taken from one chicken egg. Source: The Guardian 6/2/2025
