Lab Grown Hamburger


 Did you know that they actually grew hamburgers without the cow? Well, they didn't do it completely without the cow, they actually took some cow cells and grew them in a petri dish. Eventually manipulated the cells over and over again till they created a hamburger. The certain cells they extracted from the cow were the fat and muscle cells. Although this is interesting it's definitely not economically friendly; 1 hamburger costs $375,000.00 which is extremely expensive. Lab-grown hamburger is one of the more interesting things I've ever heard in my life.
