Episode #220: 3D Printed Steak, Cell-Cultured Salmon & Lab-Grown Chocolate

In this eye-opening episode, we explore the strange new world of engineered eating: from CRISPR-edited cows and methane-tweaked microbes to 3D-printed steaks, lab-grown salmon, mammoth meatballs, and even cell-cultured chocolate.

Are these creations the future of sustainable food…or a sign that we’ve lost touch with nature?

Join us as we peel back the shiny marketing to ask the real questions: What is food? Who controls it? And what happens when your steak requires a software update?

This weeks’ Community Question:

“If you were at a dinner party at a friend’s house and they served cell-cultured meat, would you eat it?”
