The Cultured
Schnitzel Company
When life gives you futurist stem cell technology, the true calling of German food engineers is to manufacture a cultured schnitzel - free of slaughter, free of suffering, full of schnitzel.
I've got questionsWe believe that eating meat is a celebratory part of our many different cultures but the way we are growing meat is inherently unsustainable. We think that it's in our human nature to proactively shape our world with technology.
We believe in a future in which we can indulge in the pleasure of eating meat without the suffering of animals and the disastrous effects on the environment.
We abduct the tastiest cows in the world and steal a pinch of their cells (both myosatellite & muscle cells). This is a safe, veterinary procedure.
After the growth phase, we are left with a shapeless pile of cells. With our cutting edge food tech, we merge these grown cells with other plant-based components to create a world class Schnitzel.

Meat is in our collective culture. projections have shown, that the social change that is pushing for a vegan lifestyle has only really been cemented in first world countries.
Most foods one can consume at the supermarket right now have originated in a "lab". Modern food technology is in most of our foods from plant milk to bread. That does not mean it is necessarily bad - it just means that the growing process had a more rigorous process behind it.
There is nothing "natural" about our mass meat production. Cultured meat will be free of antibiotics, E. coli and growth hormones.
The end product as well as the growth medium will be free of GMO-classified food.
We are aiming for 2025 ± 1 year
