Lab-grown meat for pet food could save millions of farmed animals’ lives AND the treats can be formulated for optimum nutrition.

Feeding our pets shouldn’t cost other animals their lives.

Lab-grown meat could be part of the solution. 🙏 #labmeat #cultivatedmeat

Cow cells defy aging, opening the door to affordable lab-grown beef
A new study shows, for the first time, that cow cells can naturally become immortal—continuing to divide indefinitely without genetic modification or any abnormal transformation. This overturns long-held assumptions that bovine cells could only be immortalized through gene editing, providing a safe, stable, and scalable source of cells for cultivated beef production.
