Globalism Goes Bold: ​Bill Gates Wants Your Hamburger

[PAF]

February 17, 2021



Gazillionaire globalist Bill Gates has a new book out on how to tackle what he sees as the problem of climate change. One of his guidelines to save the planet? Give up your meat and grab a "plant-based" burger instead. 'You can get used to the taste difference,' he said in a recent interview. While such "big ideas" might normally come under some scrutiny in the media, it turns out that Gates has given something like a quarter of a billion dollars to dozens of media outlets. He also funds the "fact check" organizations who play their part getting independent voices silenced. How dangerous are billionaire authoritarians?

Beyond the economics, there's also the open question of whether consumers will be willing to make the switch to lab-grown meat. Some companies, like the San Francisco-based Just Foods and Tel Aviv's Supermeat are already selling chicken patties and nuggets made from cultured cells at select restaurants.

These products don't get at the full potential for cellular technology according to Daan Luining, Meatable's chief technology officer. "We have seen the nugget and the chicken burger, but we're working on whole muscle tissue," Luining said.

The sheer number of entrants in the category -- and the capital they've raised -- points to the opportunity for several winners if companies can walk the tightrope balancing cost at scale and quality replacements for free-range food.

"The mission of the company is to be a global leader in providing proteins for the planet. Pork and beef and regularly eaten cuts have an impact on environmental and land management," Luining said. "The technology that we are using allows us to go into different species. First we’re focused on the animals that have the biggest impact on climate change and planetary health."

For Meatable right now, price remains an issue. The company is currently producing meat at roughly $10,000 per pound, but, unlike its competitors, the company said it is producing whole meat. That's including the fat and connective tissue that makes meat... well... meat.
