Cell-Based Meat Will Be Sold At A Butchery For The First Time Ever

Singapore is set to make history as cell-based meat, also known as cultured or cultivated meat, will be sold at a butcher's shop for the first time. Huber's Butchery has partnered with food tech company Eat Just to offer GOOD Meat-branded chicken, which is produced without harm to the environment or animals. The launch of cell-based meat in Singapore has previously been limited to fine-dining restaurants and food delivery platforms, making this partnership with a traditional butcher a significant step towards normalizing environmentally friendly protein sources.

Guests in Singapore have already had the opportunity to sample Huber's cell-based dishes, with public sales scheduled to begin in January. The move towards offering cultivated meat in traditional butcher shops highlights a growing interest in alternative protein sources and a commitment to sustainability. While Singapore leads the way in cell-based meat availability, progress is also being made in the US with UPSIDE Foods receiving FDA approval for its cultivated chicken, paving the way for future sales pending further regulatory clearance.
