Lab-Grown Cheese Made by ‘Milking’ Genetically Modified Yeast Cells

Lab-Grown Cheese Made by ‘Milking’ Genetically Modified Yeast Cells | Singularity Hub: "If you’re against killing animals for food and clothing or believe industrial farming is too resource intense, you may have given up some of life’s greatest pleasures. No juicy steak for you, no deliciously sharp cheddar cheese, and certainly no fine Italian shoes.



But what if you could make real beef, cheese, and leather—without a cow? Scientists are hard at work on just such a sci-fi solution. The latest news? Oakland’s Counter Culture Labs and Sunnyvale’s BioCurious are teaming up to make vegan cheese in the lab. But this is no dubious nut or soy cheese. We’re talking the real deal—only no animals were harmed, or even directly involved, in the making of the cheese."
