A federal appeals court upheld Florida’s 2024 ban on lab-grown meat, backing state authority over food labeling.
A federal appeals court has upheld Florida’s 2024 ban on lab-grown meat, ruling the law does not conflict with federal poultry regulations since it doesn’t regulate ingredients, facilities, or operations of companies like Upside Foods.
The decision affirms a lower court’s dismissal of a challenge brought by the California-based cultivated meat producer.
Florida was the first state to pass such a ban, with six others following.
Officials, including Governor Ron DeSantis and Agriculture Commissioner Wilton Simpson, say the law protects traditional farmers and consumer safety.
The FDA approved lab-grown meat for human consumption in November 2022, but industry advocates warn state bans could hinder innovation and competition.
It’s unclear if Upside Foods will appeal further.
