    They’ve been making many strides in terms of texture. Last I saw, they were completely growing cell cultures that produced a ground-beef like texture and look.

      Yeah exactly, ground beef or extruded/separated meat texture.

      Same problem that companies like impossible and beyond can’t overcome. The structure of muscle tissue (eg a steak or chicken breast) is tremendously difficult to replicate and that texture is what people love

      It’s still a great thing for animal welfare
