In this episode, we're thrilled to have Elliot Swartz, a scientist at The Good Food Institute, join us for an in-depth conversation about the future of food. Elliot's work primarily focuses on the development and commercialization of cultivated meat (a.k.a. lab-grown meat). We'll explore how cultivated meat is produced, the scientific challenges involved, and the potential impact on the environment, animal welfare, and food security. Elliot also shares insights into the regulatory landscape and the steps needed to bring cultivated meat to the mainstream market. Whether you're a foodie, a sustainability enthusiast, or just curious about the future of protein, this episode is packed with valuable information and forward-thinking ideas. Tune in to learn how science is paving the way for a more sustainable and ethical food industry.
