S1E40: Could no-kill meat products be food for the future? - Green Pulse Ep 40

Green Pulse Ep 40: Could no-kill meat products be food for the
future?


15:49 mins


Synopsis: Every first and third Monday of the month, The
Straits Times analyses the beat of the changing environment, from
biodiversity conservation to climate change in this podcast
series.


Singapore has become the first country to approve the sale of a
cultured meat product -- chicken bites by Californian start-up
Eat Just. They will be available from Dec 18 at 1880, a private
members’ club at Robertson Quay. 


In this episode, ST’s environment correspondent Audrey Tan and
climate change editor David Fogarty chat with Ms Elaine Siu,
managing director of The Good Food Institute Asia Pacific, on the
case for alternative proteins. 


They discuss the following points:
Why cultivated meat products are a “good food” (1:47)

Many people in Singapore are now familiar with products such as
Impossible Burger, which also tastes similar to meat. What is the
difference? (2:35)
How is cultivated meat made (4:33) How environmentally friendly
is cultivated meat production compared with the traditional
livestock sector? (10:42)
