Is cultured meat a revolution or a risk? That is the main question people have. On the one hand, its development is appreciated in countries like Singapore and the USA, while on the other side of the world, countries like Italy and Romania are already trying to put regulations in place to ban it. And on monday the Republicans party of France joined to prohibit the production and marketing of cultivated meat in the country.
