    So they say the meat is 99% chicken cell, does anyone know what the 1% is? I’d just feel better knowing.

      Typically that’s more of a CYA move. If someone finds something that isn’t chicken cell they could sue for false advertising, but if it’s 100% chicken cell nobody can sue for saying it was 99%.

        I was digging into this question and only found that it might be leftovers of whatever they feed the cells (which also no longer includes anything from live or harvested animals, which is cool). CYA covers that and so much more so I think you’re right.

        Oh a strong possibility here, it’d still be nice to know, but it’s understandable from a legal standpoint. Besides 1% is nothing, especially when comparing it to the 4% human flesh that’s allowed in current meat production.

      I don’t know, and maybe I shouldn’t comment, but my first thought was that it might be some sort of edible lattice that makes sure the chicken cells grow in a shape that looks vaguely filet-like.
