Quick Glance: South Korea Scientists Innovate 'Beef Rice' Protein Source
- South Korean researchers have cultivated beef cells in rice grains to create a sustainable and environmentally friendly protein source that could potentially replace traditional beef.
- Using grain particles as a base, the 'beef rice' product is developed by infusing rice grains with bovine cells to produce a hybrid grain resembling pinkish rice.
- With higher protein and fat content compared to regular rice, 'beef rice' offers a rich source of essential amino acids, priced competitively with a lower carbon footprint.
- While facing technical and taste challenges, cultured 'beef rice' shows promise as an alternative protein source to conventional beef, with differing opinions on taste and texture from consumers.
