lab burger stock

Ever heard of these ‘frankenburgers”? Well, basically they’re lab grown artificial beef burgers  – yea, I’m not too sure how they ‘grow’ this beef in the lab but they do and it’s kind of creepy.

Dutch professor Mark Post, who was the first guy to develop these lab burgers says the price point for thee bad boys is going to get a lot cheaper.

The original lab grown burger patty, which was invented back in 2012, cost nearly a quarter of a millions dollars to make  – now that cost is coming down to a reasonable $12 a patty.

The professor says mass consumption of the lab developed meat is still about 20-30 years away and early taste tests says that the ‘frankenburger’ sits in a distant second to the real deal.

Would you try one these lab grown ‘frankenburgers’ or any other synthetic meat?
