People in Europe have another choice when looking for meat at food stores or choosing a meal at a restaurant. Instead of the usual meat from animals, they are able to buy a new kind of meat made from plants and formed by 3D printers.
The Israeli company Redefine Meat makes a food product called New Meat. The food product looks and tastes like meat. It has plant material(材料) and is shaped by the printer to look like meat. The product has already been sold in Great Britain, Germany, the Netherlands and Italy.
A Redefine Meat leader, Eshchar Ben-Shitrit, says the company produces more than 15 metric tons of New Meat a day. Success isn’t guaranteed(保证) in the meat market, however. Another company that makes such product is an American company called Beyond Meat. The sales of its product didn’t reach the number it had planned. The American company said it would cut its number of workers and other costs.
Plant-based meats are seen as better for animals and the environment. But after early interest, business experts say people are not often buying them. They think that is because these meats are more expensive than traditional meats in a time where people around the world are worried about rising food costs.
