Created by AI

An American company has received permission to grow genetically modified soybeans containing pork protein.

A seed company eyeing the alternative meat market has received approval from the US Department of Agriculture to grow genetically modified agricultural products, including “pork-flavored” soybeans.

Moolec Science, as the company is called, wants to add pork genes to soybeans and gbeef and peasto create hybrid plant-animal proteins that can replace real meat in sausages and hamburgers, satisfying taste buds and meat-eaters.

Production of meat from non-animal ingredients is an area that is attracting significant investment because plant-based products are not only expensive, but also cannot imitate the texture and taste of a real burger.

According to the company, innovative soy and peas will help solve the taste problem.
