In vitro meat

In vitro meat, also known as "lab-grown" meat, is meat grown in a laboratory instead of coming from an animal. It is made by taking cells from an animal, then feeding the cells special nutrients so they can grow and multiply until they form small pieces of muscle, which can be put together to make a burger or other food made of meat. Scientists think that this kind of meat is better for the environment than regular meat, because it will use less resources and create less pollution.
