Startup News: Upside Foods' lab-grown chicken is safe for human consumption

November 29, 2022

Foods Gets Nod from FDA, Impossible Foods Bets on Plant-Based Products

Laboratory-grown meat products are one step closer to America’s restaurants and supermarkets, thanks to a FDA ruling that effectively gives a green light to private companies developing “sustainable” protein offerings.

TECH CRUNCH 07/10/2023

Upside Foods shares its recipe for scaling cultivated meat at TC Disrupt 2023

How far are carnivorous people willing to go to fight climate change and reduce inhumane factory-farming conditions? That’s a huge question when you’re a player in the lab-grown meat industry. How do you overcome the initial “ick factor,” and what will it take to bring the cost of lab-grown meats in line with the conventional hooved or feathered variety? These are just three of the many topics we’ll discuss with Uma Valeti, founder and CEO of Upside Foods, when he joins us on the Sustainability Stage at TechCrunch Disrupt 2023, which takes place on September 19–21 in San Francisco.

BUSINESS INSIDER 07/02/2023

Chicken made from animal cells in a lab was served at a Michelin-starred restaurant in San Francisco

Lab-grown chicken produced entirely from animal cells was served for the first time in the US at a San Francisco restaurant on Saturday. Upside Foods and Good Meat both recently received approval from the Food and Drug Administration that deemed their cultivated chicken safe to eat, and approval from the US Department of Agriculture that meant their products could go on sale.

CNBC 05/19/2023

This company could take lab-grown meat mainstream thanks to a green light from the FDA

When Amy Chen took her first bite of chicken meat grown directly from cells in a lab, her initial reaction was a cliché one-liner: It tasted like chicken. That bite was years in the making. Chen is the operating chief at Upside Foods, a Berkeley, California-based food-technology company that’s been working to bring what’s known as cultivated meat to the American mainstream since 2015. Chen’s unusual dining experience, which she calls “the most remarkable and most unremarkable” of her life, could become a lot more common in the years to come.

PR NEWSWIRE 04/20/2023

UPSIDE Foods Announces What's Next on the Menu: A Mouth-Watering Array of Ground Meat Products Made from Real Animal Cells

UPSIDE Foods, the leading cultivated meat, poultry and seafood company, today announced a new range of consumer products made from real animal cells. Pending regulatory review, these cultivated ground meat products will broaden UPSIDE's commercial portfolio to include a range of delicious options, such as chicken sausages, chicken sandwiches and dumplings. In addition, UPSIDE announced that it has developed a breakthrough chicken cell line for use in suspension cell culture that could substantially reduce the cost of production for these ground meat products.
