Synthetic meat, here are the companies angry with Meloni and Lollobrigida. There is also Barilla
All the names of the companies gathered in the AgriFood-Tech Italia association that oppose the ban on so-called synthetic meat, which is actually called cultivated meat
Let's start with the words: we don't say "synthetic meat". Thus writes in a post on his Facebook profile Peter Kruger, president of AgriFood-Tech Italia , regarding the government's decision to ban the production and marketing of meat grown in our country.
The association, which brings together the main Italian agrifood startups, aims to promote international best practices for the development of this sector and intends to give battle to the measure supported by the entire executive and, in particular, by the ministers of Agriculture, Food Sovereignty and Forests (Masaf), Francesco Lollobrigida, of Health, Orazio Schillaci, and by organizations such as Coldiretti.
