South Korean Scientists Develop 'Meaty Rice' to Revolutionize Protein Consumption

A Seoul lab injects cultured beef cells into rice grains to create a high-protein, eco-friendly food source.

'Meaty rice' contains 8% more protein and 7% more fat than regular rice.
The process uses cultured beef cells without harming animals.
Potential applications include famine relief and space missions.
South Korea is investing in food technology but has not yet approved cultivated meat for consumption.
The method significantly reduces the carbon footprint compared to traditional beef production.
