Lab-grown cheese is coming. But would you eat it?
Published: 7/13/2025

British start-up Better Dairy in London is working on lab-grown cheese, aiming to mimic the real thing without using cows. Despite a rising interest in alternative foods, there are concerns about the taste, health aspects, and costs of plant-based cheese. However, companies like Those Vegan Cowboys and Standing Ovation are optimistic about the future of lab-made cheeses, targeting a "silent revolution" in the market. With innovative techniques like precision fermentation and plant-based fats, lab-grown cheeses are striving to bridge the gap to traditional dairy products.
