Researchers at Reutlingen University are making strides in creating 3D-printed meat alternatives that are free from animal cruelty and antibiotics. This innovative approach to meat production involves cultivating fat cells from slaughterhouse byproducts. While the technology shows promise, challenges remain, including societal resistance and the complex production process. Experts predict it may take three to five years of further research before this meat alternative can be mass-produced. The goal is to offer a more sustainable and ethical meat option that could benefit the environment and agriculture.
