In a major first, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration just offered its safety blessing to a cultivated meat product startup. It completed its first pre-market consultation with Upside Foods to examine human food made from the cultured cells of animals, and it concluded that it had “no further questions” related to the way Upside is producing its chicken.

Note: I don't fully understand all the legal hoops that a cultured meat company has to jump through; it seems like this is a major one, but by no means the last.
