To date, plant-based meat substitutes have competed with ground beef for burgers and sausages. Redefine Meat of Israel has unveiled a faux steak product based on printed technology that is claimed to mimic the texture, flavor and appearance of high value beef cuts.
The CEO and co-Founder of Redefine Meat stated, "the importance of using Precision 3D printing technology to achieve texture, color and flavor and the combinations between them cannot be overstated". He added "by using separate formulations for muscle, fat and blood we can focus on each individual aspect, creating the perfect alternative steak product".
The product will be tested in restaurants with the intention of initiating commercial production in 2021.
