It’s a book of recipes that you can’t cook . . . yet!

Those diehard dietary techno-optimists over at NextNature are preparing a speculative “In Vitro Meat Cookbook” to explore the outer bounds of what one might make from in vitro meat – such as dodo wings (I presume they taste like chicken), or meat ice cream (I don’t ever want to know what that tastes like). The cookbook is a conceptual art project, stimulating discussion of food policy and technology (“a conversation starter on the future of meat”), and not, I think, intended to be taken seriously as a cookbook by anyone. At least I hope not.

“Be part of the future of meat” by donating to this crowdfunded project at indiegogo.
