BioMADE, a Pentagon-funded company, seeks proposals to develop lab-grown meat for US troops, aiming to reduce the carbon footprint at military bases. Lab-grown meat, produced through novel cell culture methods, involves growing animal muscle and fat tissues from altered animal cells in bioreactors, mimicking cuts of beef, pork, and chicken. The method is still experimental, sparking debates on its efficiency and morality.
