Security News > 2024 > January > Friday Squid Blogging: New Foods from Squid Fins

We only eat about half of a squid, ignoring the fins.

As usual, you can also use this squid post to talk about the security stories in the news that I haven't covered.

"In a world first, Israel has approved the sale of cultured meat based on beef, the Health Ministry said Wednesday."

Permission for a "New food" product was given to Aleph Farms to sell its cultured meat in Israel.

In the past Singapore and the US have approved cultured chicken for sale, but Israel is the first to give beef the go-ahead. "To produce its meat, Aleph leverages the ability of animals to grow tissue muscle constantly and isolates the cells responsible. It then reproduces the optimal conditions for these cells to grow into tissue, basically growing meat outside the animal. The tissue is grown in tanks that act as fermenters, similar to those in a brewery. There the cells are nurtured and shaped into a 3D structure that makes the meat."
