Lab-Grown Meat Company Sues Florida Over Sales Ban

Upside Foods argues the ban on cultivated meat violates constitutional protections and impedes consumer choice.

Upside Foods filed a federal lawsuit challenging Florida's ban on selling or manufacturing lab-grown meat.
The company claims the law unfairly favors in-state farmers and violates the U.S. Constitution.
Florida officials defend the ban, citing food safety and agricultural integrity concerns.
A preliminary injunction is being sought to allow sales during the legal proceedings.
Similar bans are being considered in other states, with Alabama's set to take effect in October.
