https://www.tampabay.com/news/florida-politics/2024/02/03/desantis-fake-meat-cultivated-lab-grown-cattle-industry/Gov. Ron DeSantis on Friday backed legislative efforts to prevent lab-grown or cultivated meat from being made or sold in Florida.
I know the Legislature is doing a bill to try to protect our meat, DeSantis said during an appearance at the South Florida State College Hardee Campus in Bowling Green. You need meat, OK. And were going to have meat in Florida. Were not going to have fake meat. Like that doesnt work.
The proposed ban is included in bills (HB 1071 and SB 1084) that also would make other changes involving the Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services.
Cultivated meat involves a process of taking a small number of cultured cells from animals and growing them in controlled settings to make food. Industry officials have argued the cultivated meat process has been closely scrutinized by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the U.S. Department of Agriculture to ensure safety.

I haven't tried any of the lab grown meats, but the Florida Legislature is telling us what to read, eat, and when to have babies.

Residents were probably hoping he'd stay in the race for another few months.
