Media Bias Fact Check (MBFC) publishes daily vetted fact checks from verified IFCN-approved sources. Each claim is independently reviewed for accuracy and context.
Claimant: Social Media
Claim: Retail stores in the U.S. are selling 3D-printed meat, as of September.
Rating: TRUE
Explanation: Steakholder Foods has launched products under the Perfecta brand that are made using 3D-printing technology and have reached some retail shelves in the northeastern United States. The products are plant-based rather than cultivated animal-cell meat, so they differ from what is commonly described as “lab-grown meat.”
