Conventional protein sources in animal diets could be (partially) replaced with insects through a circular economy approach, growing insects on low-value substrates (e.g., organic wastes or crop residues). However, consumers’ acceptance of novel insect-fed animal products is key to the final success of such products. Thus, this study, with Linda Arata and Giulia Tiboldo, analyses consumers’ willingness to buy insect-fed poultry meat and eggs using the results from an online survey of 780 Italian consumers. Overall, results show a positive attitude of Italian consumers surveyed towards insect-feed animal products, with an interesting role played by the trust in the role of public authorities in ensuring food safety.

The battle for the next generation of burgers is heating up! On one side, we have the classic regular meat burger, a staple in diets worldwide. On the other hand, the challenger emerges: the lab-grown meat burger, a revolutionary technology promising a more sustainable and ethical future of food. Regular Meat Burgers: Pros: Familiar taste and texture, readily available, affordable. Cons: Environmental impact of livestock farming, potential concerns about animal welfare, antibiotic use. Lab-Grown Meat Burgers: Pros: Environmentally friendly, eliminates animal cruelty, potential for customized nutrition. Cons: New technology with limited availability, higher cost (currently), potential consumer skepticism. The Great Burger Debate: Sustainability: Lab-grown meat uses significantly less land and water compared to traditional livestock farming. Animal Welfare: No animals are harmed in the production of lab-grown meat. ❤️ Health: Both options can be nutritious, but lab-grown meat offers the potential for tailored fat and protein content. Cost and Availability: Regular meat burgers are currently more affordable and readily available. However, as the technology matures, lab-grown meat is expected to become more cost-effective and widespread. ⚖️ The Bottom Line: The future of burgers is still unfolding. Regular meat burgers remain a dominant force, but lab-grown meat presents a compelling alternative with significant environmental and ethical advantages. The choice ultimately depends on individual values and priorities. What are your thoughts on lab-grown meat? Will it replace regular meat burgers in the future?

🌱✨ 🇫🇷 Big News from France: No More Meat Names for Veggie Products! ✨🌱 France has made a big decision during a tough time for farmers. They've said no to using meat names like "steak" or "ham" for plant-based (veggie) foods. This is happening while we're waiting for the European Union's big court to make a final decision on if this is okay according to EU rules. 🗣️ What's New? France's Prime Minister, Gabriel Attal, shared that they've passed a new rule because farmers really wanted it. This rule is part of France's plan to make sure their livestock farming is strong and includes a big money help of €400 million. Now, words that usually describe meat can't be used for foods made mostly from plants. But, there are some exceptions if the plant content is really low. 🤔 Why Does It Matter? This is a big deal because it's about how we label food and it could change how veggie products are sold not just in France, but maybe in other countries too. 🌏 Around the World: The rule doesn't apply to products made or sold in other EU countries or outside the EU. This shows how tricky it is to make these kinds of rules work everywhere. 👀 What's Next? We're still waiting to hear what the European Union's top court thinks about this and if France's rule fits with EU laws. This is important because it could affect not only France but also other countries looking at similar rules. #FoodLabeling #MeatNews #MeatIndustry #MeatBorsa For more summarized news like this, subscribe to our newsletter: https://lnkd.in/dVuEVwYj [Source: https://lnkd.in/dbKgsBFt] Let's talk: What do you think about using meat names for veggie foods?

👩🎓 #CultivatingKnowledge Friday: this week we read this thought-provoking piece from Vox on "the political beef over cell-cultivated meat" by Kenny Torrella. 🥩 Climate change, diseases like swine fever and consolidation in the industrial farming industry are accelerating food insecurity. However, growing global demand for meat shows no signs of stopping. 👨🌾 🌎 We need innovative solutions to make delicious #meatalternatives like #cultivatedmeat and #cultivatedfat. The cultivated industry still has a long journey to reach commercial scale, so government backing to continue investing in this space is crucial to its success. What do you think? 🤔 🔗 Read more here: https://lnkd.in/edd2dmnJ

Read on Forbes: This article discusses the challenges of manufacturing cultured meat at scale. The piece argues that the biggest roadblock is the lack of a cost-effective production process. Current methods require large amounts of costly steel and other materials, and they don't produce enough meat to meet demand. Once cultured meat can be produced at scale at a competitive price, we believe it has the potential to revolutionize the way we produce and consume meat. It could help to reduce the environmental impact of the food system, improve animal welfare, and enhance food safety. Read more by clicking the link below.

Most of you know that cultivated meat is a growing threat to animal agriculture but also has a solid upside to feeding the planet. There is a unique branding opportunity here, and this may be another food industry entirely. Although my preferences sit firmly on the animal side of the argument, I would be the first to step up and try this new product. Would you? What kind of feelings do you have on cultivated meats? #meatindustry #meatprocessing #meatproduction #cultivatedmeat #butcher #chicken #porkproduction Chicken Farmers of Canada Canada Beef Canada Pork - Porc Canada

It's common knowledge that steak generates more emissions than beans, but there are *so many more* reasons why we need to stop relying on animal products to feed people 🥗 One that shocks me is that it's simply not efficient: 80% of global agricultural land is employed for livestock, while only providing 20% of the global supply of calories. Instead of growing crops to feed animals, we should use them for humans. Here's my list of the social, food security, health, environmental and ethical impacts of industrial-scale production of animal products, and why we should find alternatives. https://lnkd.in/e2hmce6E #alternativeproteins #livestock #animalproducts #plantbased #vegan #vegetarian #meatindustry
Why do we need plant-based meat and other alternative proteins?

#Meat production is very #greenhousegas intensive & resource inefficient. Livestock value chains are prone to more disruptions than protein alternatives. The EU depends on animal feed #imports & 71% of its farm #landuse is for livestock production. The EU should reduce #subsidies for livestock production to repurpose land for #protein crop production, making the #foodsystem more resilient. The reduction should be gradual, starting with the most inefficient producers. #Subsidies could compensate #livestock farmers or support their transition to other income sources, esp. production of protein crops (#legumes, #oilseeds). Supply side changes could be supported by policies to shift demand to more #plantbased diets: https://lnkd.in/ebQuhCGP #diets

Alternative proteins could transform the future of the food industry, delivering far superior animal welfare and far greater production efficiency than traditional farming. Bizarrely some European countries and now several US states are moving to ban the use of cultivated meats and restrict marketing of plant-based foods. At least in Florida, they are transparently saying it's due to the threat to the cattle industry. Banning cultivated meat because it threatens the cattle industry is so idiotic it beggars’ belief. Will they next ban wind and solar because they threaten the oil industry? The alternative protein industry, while it has products in the market already, is still in infancy. But it has already been proven safe to consume while having significantly lower environmental impacts. With future breakthroughs and scaling it will only get even further ahead of traditional protein sources. I will give the meat industry credit for recognising the threat these new approaches pose. After all, if you have an emerging competitor which addresses all your weaknesses while still delivering all your benefits, you should be scared. But the extent to which they are going, with many regulators in the US and Europe having passed laws limiting how alternative milks or dairy replacements can be advertised, is a sign of extraordinary fear and weakness. In some instances, they are even banning the words ‘burger’ or ‘milk’ from being used by plant based products. Ironically, those policy makers supporting these bans on competition in the market claim to champion competitive free market regulations. So, while Governor DeSantis boasts of Florida’s number 1 ranking for entrepreneurship in the country, he acts to aggressively stifle entrepreneurship. Such a wide strategy to limit the industry and erect barriers wherever possible will undoubtedly fail. Where it will succeed is ensuring the meat industry stays deluded that they don’t need to change. In the end a better product will win, and the meat industry will be left behind having missed their chance to change. #alternativeprotein #plantbased #foodinnovation https://lnkd.in/eUEWx5fh
