Peace of Meat, based in Antwerp, Belgium, has developed a stem-cell-based technology to produce animal fats, such as those from cattle, chicken or geese, without harming any animals.
“Meat-Tech believes that hybrid products, such as plant-based burgers made with cultured fat, may prove to be an exciting new product category. Such fats may offer improved aromas, flavors and textures as compared to purely plant-based proteins,” says added Steve H. Lavin, Chairman of the Board of Directors of Meat-Tech. “Completing this acquisition will add technological capabilities to support Meat-Tech’s core center-of-plate product offering.”
