Two years ago Aleph Farms cultivated a thin steak using a similar method but without the 3D printing. The new technology allowed the creation of a thicker product.
“We recognize some consumers will crave thicker and fattier cuts of meat,” said Didier Toubia, co-founder and CEO of Aleph Farms, in the statement. “This accomplishment represents our commitment to meeting our consumer’s unique preferences and taste buds, and we will continue to progressively diversify our offerings.”
He said the goal is “fulfilling our vision of leading a global food system transition toward a more sustainable, equitable and secure world.”
