【听力原文】
[3] Professor Post is developing a way to grow meat in a lab because he believes that livestock farming is not good for the environment,not good for animals nor,he says,is it going to satisfy the growing demand for meal.
His aim is to produce a burger that looks and tastes just like the real thing,but from what I saw at his lab,is still a work in progress.[4]The flesh,grown from stem cells,is pale white and tasteless,so food technologists have had to mix in some ingredients to add flavor and vegetable juice to add color.The mixture is then put together to make the burger that will be cooked then eaten by two food writers.
Initial testing during the development process suggests that it won ’t taste great,but according to Professor Post,it will taste good enough.
Why is Professor Post developing a way to grow meat in a lab?
