I can already buy impossible beef at my supermarket, it's not even that much more that regular beef. And most fast food places offer it as well.
Not the same thing though.
Is it not? It's literally grown in a lab. What is the difference?
It's made from soy. Not grown in a lab.
Oh ya, right, my bad.
In fairness, it’s kind of a freaky concept. Real meat, yet no animal was killed to provide it. Doesn’t sound like it should be possible. I can’t wait to try it.
It is super good, though.
Impossible beef is plant based. Lab grown meat is made from animal cells.
