Lab-grown (cultivated) meat uses real animal cells—like beef or chicken stem cells from a biopsy—grown in bioreactors with nutrients to form tissue. No slaughter after the initial sample. Gates has backed companies like UPSIDE Foods for cultivated chicken.
Bans are state-level in the US (Florida, Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, etc.—about 7 states as of 2025) to protect traditional livestock farming, jobs, and address safety/labeling concerns. No nationwide federal ban. Italy's 2023 ban cites food tradition and farmers.
