    Italy is the first nation in the world to be safe from the social and economic risks of synthetic food

    more like the only nation to consider all cultivated meat a problem and prohibit it instead of regulating it.

      prohibit it instead of regulating it.

      It’s like 90% of Italy’s mindset 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

      (Really tho, if we start regulating stuff there would be shit rules)

    Well that’s understandable. I too want my meat to have been grown in its own shit and be pumped full of antibiotics and let’s not forget the secret incredient: cruelty.

      Lab-grown meat is equated to synthetic ingredients and ultra-processed foods which are known to raise health problems (but are not banned, not all additives at least and not everywhere).

      Considering how politics goes these days, the producers of cultivated meat just hadn’t a grip on the ministry as strong as the farmer lobby. No ideological or public health reason whatsoever. And it’s not Italy, it’s just politics and business everywhere.

      Today it’s Italy’s turn, maybe tomorrow someone else will be on the hot seat.
