Italian grandmothers everywhere are up in arms for this meatball travesty. One Nona said, “Mammoth Meatballs are impastas!” You may feel the same, but don’t judge this cretaceous cook book by its cover. Everyone knows dry aging is so last year. Now we age our meat in glaciers for a few millennia. A new cultured meat company in Australia by the name of 
	<a href="https://www.vowfood.com/" style="background-color: initial; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, Tahoma, sans-serif;">Vow</a> has done just that in creating a mammoth meatball.
	Is this prehistoric protein safe? Well, the creators of this frankenmeat haven’t even eaten it yet out of fear. One of them said, “I’ve got no idea what the potential allergenicity might be of this particular protein”. Is it necessary? Not at all. The cultured, lab-grown meat movement keeps going further and further to undermine real meat. Now, they’ve dug up extinct meat to try to drive real meat into extinction itself.&nbsp;
	What drives them to take partial mammoth DNA, mix it with elephant DNA, and then cultivate it in a sheep muscle cell? The environment is always the main thing cited for the need of lab-grown meat, but even that synthetically engineered leg might not be one for them to stand on. A 
	<a href="https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2023.04.21.537778v1.article-info">new study done by the University of California</a> shows that the climate impact of lab-grown meat could be up to 25 times worse for the environment than traditionally-raised, real meat.

	Notice the jump from 500 to 1400 on the left side of the graph. GCR-PF is over 3x the emissions of the maximum projected bovine emissions by itself. 
	 
	As the graph above shows, even the maximum bovine emissions are significantly less than the sum of the PF (Purification Factor) of the lab-grown alternatives. The emissions are higher due to the large amount of energy needed to refine and purify growth medium components. These are the components that help cultured meat grow, and since any presence of bacteria can destroy the cultured meat cells, the components must go through extreme processes of purification that rely heavily on fossil fuels and generate significantly more greenhouse gas emissions than real meat. Anyone claiming lab-grown meat has less environmental impact is taking a narrow perspective that doesn’t include all the facts.&nbsp;
	If we scale up current technologies to produce cultured meat, we will be doing a disservice to our agricultural industry and our environment. Emissions wouldn't decrease, but would instead increase anywhere from 4 to 25 times based on this study. Yes, a mammoth meatball is hilarious. It’s a great punchline at the end of a joke, but the problem is these aren’t jokes but real scientific experiments informing an industry hard set on a process to grow meat in a lab and harm the planet and farmers worldwide in the process. We should be wise and efficient in the use of our resources, and this new study clearly shows lab-grown meat will undermine a key American industry and replace an agricultural system that’s one of the best in the world with an inferior substitute.&nbsp;

	These mammoth meatballs look like old baseballs retrieved from the scary backyard in the movie Sandlot. Lab-grown meat is not a competitor to real meat because they aren't even in the same league of quality or flavor. It's like a little league team going up against the top players in the MLB.

Fake Meat Lab Creates 4000 Year Old Meatball For You To Eat

A new report from 
	<a href="https://www.gro-intelligence.com/insights/us-beef-headed-for-supply-shock-high-prices-through-2024-gro-expects" style="color:#bd472a; text-decoration: underline" target="_blank">GRO Intelligence</a> highlights how US Beef is headed for a supply shock in 2024, which could result in higher prices. The primary culprit behind this price hike? A significant drop in domestic production, which, coupled with an uptick in imports, makes knowing your meat source absolutely critical in the upcoming years. In this article, we'll not only reference the report from GRO Intelligence but also provide additional reasons why many believe meat prices—especially the price of beef—are set to soar in 2024.
	At the heart of the impending meat price increase is a shortage of beef. <a href="https://www.ers.usda.gov/topics/animal-products/cattle-beef/market-outlook/" style="color:#bd472a; text-decoration: underline" target="_blank">The USDA has confirmed a decline in beef supply in recent years</a>, with the beef production forecast for this year at 27 billion pounds. However, in 2024, this is projected to drop to 25 billion pounds, representing a 6.5 percent decrease from the current year. This decline is expected to result in the lowest per capita availability of beef in the United States since records began in 1970. But how does reduced supply result in higher prices?
	Multiple factors have contributed to this upcoming supply drop, ranging from extended drought periods, to reduced cattle herds from record beef production during COVID-19, and skyrocketing production costs. Consequently, there’s less beef available in the market, which leads to an increase in the price of 100% American beef since it’s less available. Remember, we’re going to face record low production numbers compared to the past 5 decades, so supply is more critical than ever. Some areas of the country that rely on domestic goods the most, could see shortages on their shelves based on these projections, which could make people stock up more than before.
	To combat the uptick in prices and decrease in the supply of American meat we recommend sourcing your meat from local farmers and ranchers. Knowing where your meat comes from empowers you to exercise greater control over its quality, which is particularly important as prices rise. By standing against the imported meat in grocery stores and instead opting for local meat sources, you’re ensuring a fresher product while also supporting local farmers and ranchers, which boosts local economies and food security.
	By choosing a source like Good Ranchers, you’d be choosing an outlet that allows you to do all of the above. While more imports are flooding grocery stores, our imports will remain the same: zero. You’ll be supporting local farmers and ranchers while enjoying your favorite dishes! Plus, you won’t have to worry about any price fluctuations, as right now, we’re currently offering a two-year price lock guarantee.

Bang Bang Salmon Bites Recipe

Farmers are pushing back against the 
	<a href="https://www.agweb.com/news/livestock/dairy/ireland-proposes-culling-200000-cows-help-meet-climate-goals-farmers-push-back" style="background-color: initial; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, Verdana, Tahoma, sans-serif;">Irish government’s plan to kill 200,000 cattle to meet their carbon emission goal</a>—and we’re glad they are. Many countries that are aiming at reducing emissions have targeted the agricultural sector the hardest, but this is a new level of war against real meat. An entire country is actually considering mass slaughter of their cow herd to meet a climate goal set by bureaucrats. Of course, the ones writing these propositions have failed to consider or failed to care about the most important questions. 
Whose cows will be slaughtered? Are some farmers spared and others destroyed at random? What will happen to the thousands of Irish jobs and livelihoods in this sector? Do they all get employed at a fake meat factory producing 10x the emissions their farms ever did? Will the dairy industry or meat industry collapse as a result? Do any of the people who care about the environment also care about the lives of 200,000 cattle that will be wiped out for no good reason?
	 
	
	
	The destabilization a decision like this could cause is monumental. From our perspective, it seems Ireland has fallen victim to their own slippery slopes of Moher. It all started with an “initiative” to reduce emissions, which soon became a mandate. When the farmers can’t/won’t meet the unreasonable requirements or pay the fines imposed, the government steps in to enforce the net zero goal at all costs. What was sold as a “create a more sustainable industry and country” in 15 to 30 years has become a slaughter of 200,000 cows only a few years later.
	 
	
	
	We don’t know about you, but we’re Dublin down. Real meat is here to stay whether they like it or not. It’s true if you give the government an inch, they’ll take a mile. Likewise, if you give them a net zero initiative, they’ll also take nearly a quarter of a million cattle. The Net Zero IQ culling might feel like the culmination of this story, but it might just be the beginning. If you like real meat and want to support the kinds of farmers the government continues to impose upon, then&nbsp;
