Chicken That Never Experienced The World At All!

But can it tell Sonata No. 8 apart from Sonata No. 14?

Chicken That Never Experienced The World At All!

No, unfortunately, this is not an article about a chicken raised to the sounds of Beethoven, in a coop painted like Vatican City’s Sistine Chapel. Far from it, actually. It’s about a chicken that never experienced the world at all—never heard its sounds or saw its sights. In fact, this chicken didn’t even live. Scientists grew it in a lab— minus the face, legs, organs and consciousness—and then they sent the lump of meat straight to the fryer. Thus, in 2020, began the sale of cell-cultured chicken bites, or to give them a less deceitful name, no-kill nuggets.

Today, SGD20 can buy you an eight-piece bucket from KFC. It can buy you 12 drumlets from Nando’s. Or it can leave you three dollars short of a plate of Good Meat cultured chicken.
