Pet Food with Lab Cultured Meat Approved in EU – Truth about Pet Food


The press release states “Czech start-up Bene Meat Technologies is the first to win European Union registration for laboratory-grown meat for use in pet food and plans to boost production to make up to several metric tons per day next year, the company said on Wednesday.

The company stated pet foods containing the lab-grown meats would “sell around the price level of premium and super-premium pet food products on the market.”

Bene Meat next plans to test how the product tastes to animals, while scaling up production at its current Prague lab and at new premises it is looking for.

The company is in talks with pet food makers on supplies, but also aims to work with them to potentially set up production lines at their current facilities. It also plans to develop its own brand of final pet food products.”

Lab-grown meat in pet food has not been approved (yet) in the US. However, our guess would be, with EU approval – the FDA will soon follow with approval here. So…would you buy a pet food containing lab-grown meat?

Wishing you and your pet(s) the best,
