Cultivated meat is edging closer to commercialization in the US as GOOD Meat becomes the second startup to secure a ‘no questions’ letter from the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) affirming the safety of its process for growing chicken from cells, outside of the animal.
The letter was issued four months after fellow Bay Area-based startup UPSIDE Foods received a ‘no questions’ letter from the FDA for its cell-cultured chicken.
The first company in the world to launch cell-cultured or ‘cultivated’ meat via a small-scale operation in Singapore, GOOD Meat (the cultivated meat division of Eat Just) has just installed a 6,000-liter bioreactor for cultivated meat at a new facility in Singapore, which is “nearing completion.”
It plans to produce cultivated chicken products for the US market later this year from a 3,500-liter bioreactor in Alameda, California, pending approval from the US Dept of Agriculture (USDA).
