Mosa Meat, a cultivated meat company, has submitted a novel food authorization request in Switzerland for cultivated fat as an ingredient to enhance plant-based products. This follows their EU submission for cultivated beef. The company aims to combine cultivated and plant-based ingredients in their first products. The approval process is expected to take 18 months. Mosa Meat has invested significant resources into meeting safety standards and recently conducted formal tastings in the Netherlands. This move reflects broader trends in cellular agriculture and collaboration between traditional and innovative food sectors.
