Plant based “meats” are legal in Texas. Lab grown meat is not. Beyond is safe.

We had this in texas but it’s illegal now.
I think it’s illegal in six other states too.
Reasons stated: Protect the economics of the cattle industry and to protect public health
No more beyond steak tips in my pasta, For the good of public health and to support the sale of real cow meat that I already never buy…

Just got word that apparently that was misinformation. Beyond claims on their Twitter that they have not done so and aren’t planning to either.

Was going to delete my comment but since you already replied, I’ll just leave it up. Sorry for the confusion.

Growing meat cells in a lab and selling them as food is illegal in the states you reference.
What Beyond does in processing plant material into something that resembles some meat products is still legal everywhere.
