From October 19 to 23, the world gathers in Rome for the 54th session of the Committee on World Food Security (CFS)*—a global platform dedicated to combating hunger and malnutrition, and to upholding the right to food. Discussions will focus on food security, coordinated responses to food crises, and sustainable food systems. The agenda will […]
This is Technocrat’s dream: to make food for the masses in a sterile factory without any animal protein. It has been years in the making (research and development), but it’s finally arrived – 3D-printed meat, fish, and chicken. Of course, the label doesn’t say that, because who in their right mind would eat it? Can you picture your child saying, “Oh look, Mommy, can we have 3D-printed steak for dinner?” Well, at least it’s not “soylent green,” but it’s just as repulsive. ⁃ Patrick Wood, Editor.
3D-printed fake meat and fish have officially hit American grocery stores. Israeli food-technology company Steakholder Foods announced the U.S. retail launch of its PERFECTA brand, introducing 3D-printed meat and seafood to grocery stores across the Northeastern United States.
The packaging DOES NOT disclose that the company’s products are manufactured using 3D-printing technology. Instead, the products are marketed as “premium plant-based meat.”
Steakholder Foods is rolling out five products under its PERFECTA brand:
“Marbled Steak”
“Filet Mignon”
“Chicken Breast”
“Salmon Patties”
“White Fish Patties”
Its plant-based steak formulation contains soy flour, rapeseed oil, modified starch, methylcellulose, xanthan gum, locust bean gum, and artificial meat coloring designed to imitate the appearance of beef.
These are not ingredients I would put in my body.
One thing is for sure, I will NOT be purchasing this 3D-printed slop.

This article is from Food for Feed, a series investigating the global fishmeal industry. It is produced by the Outlaw Ocean Project, a news organization based in Washington, D.C., and excerpted by Mongabay. In late August 2025, a company named Marine Impex Pvt. Ltd. contacted the city council of Cuncolim, a city in southern India, to propose constructing a new fishmeal processing plant. Each month, the 1.6-hectare (4-acre) facility would process at least 2,400 metric tons of fishmeal, a protein-rich, dark-yellow powder made by pulverizing and cooking wild-caught fish, which is used as feed for farm-raised seafood like shrimp, salmon, and tuna. The proposal sparked outrage. In media coverage, local environmental advocates and politicians voiced strong objections. “If this project is allowed, it is as if we have killed the people of Cuncolim,” said city councilor Landry Mascarenhas. State lawmaker Elvis Gomes drafted a letter to the governor of Goa state, where Cuncolim is located, asking him to intervene and explained that the stench from existing plants chokes “the lungs with such foul air that the effect of it pervades for a prolonged period.” He added, “It is simply beyond a normal human’s capacity to endure.” The outcry in Cuncolim cast a spotlight on a powerful industry with a history of wrongdoing. Between 2018 and 2024, at least 30 Indian fishmeal plants were involved in a range of environmental violations and other legal infractions, such as dumping waste into waterways and boreholes, evading taxes, using illegal timber to fuel boilers,…This article was originally published on Mongabay
