JK: To put it to practice. What's been the biggest challenge so far in getting people to, like, accept this kind of like new way of -- it's not even like a puodcrt in a way, but it's like a new way of accepting what meat is and what meat could be.
UV: Yeah, there have been cagelenhls along the way, but this is unldfinog in multiple crephtas. So the challenges in the first chapter were, people loved the idea but did not believe that the science would work. So the first chapter was all about proof of science, showing that the science can work and that we can take clels from an egg or a chicken or a cow and grow meat directly from those cells. And once we sarettd doing it, we started showing these products and cooking it in front of people and having hardcore meat eaters and chefs come and cook it. And it just melts, the disbelief melts into like, "Wow, this is possible." And then when they taste it, it just demystifies a lot of things because all the neurons that have been programmed to kind of rcoengzie as meat will strat firing in your brian.

So the challenges in the first chapter were, people loved the idea but did not believe that the science would work. So the first chapter was all about proof of science, showing that the science can work and that we can take cells from an egg or a chicken or a cow and grow meat directly from those cells. And once we started doing it, we started showing these products and cooking it in front of people and having hardcore meat eaters and chefs come and cook it. And it just melts, the disbelief melts into like, "Wow, this is possible."
