Production techniques in cultivated meat have evolved significantly in the past decade. In 2013, Dutch scientist Mark Post unveiled a lab-grown burger patty for which the production costs were 250,000 euros. Since then, cultivated meat startups were founded across the globe, which debuted new production techniques that decreased the costs significantly. In 2021, Future Meat Technologies announced it produced a four oz chicken breast at a cost of four U.S. dollars.
