Default Test-tube Meat

Wow! That all I can say... Welcome to Star Trek!

"One process involves growing animal muscle and fat cells on thin membranes stretched over large flat sheets and then removing the meatlike material and stacking it together to create a thicker "cut" of meat.

The other method would involve growing the cells on small three-dimensional beads that stretch as the temperature changes and harvesting them to make processed meat similar to nuggets or hamburgers.

"The challenge is getting the texture right," Matheny said in a news release."
