What is this episode about

Gregg Wallace takes a look at a controversial new lab-grown’miracle meat’ that claims to be cheaper and tastier than its competitors at a time when food prices are on the rise. Gregg, a food production aficionado, visits a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility to learn about the product’s price, method of manufacture, and flavor.

He investigates the astounding claims that the meat could significantly help people through the cost-of-living crisis by getting his hands dirty with some extraordinary technology, meeting everyone involved in the production of the meat from the CEO to the workers on the production line.

After sampling the protein in Borough Market, Michelle Ackerley takes a plate of samples to the exclusive two-Michelin-starred restaurant Le Gavroche in the heart of London to conduct a taste test with celebrity chef Michel Roux Jr.

Gregg also learns about other revolutionary’miracle meat’ products that are still in the research and development phase, as well as being given a sneak peek at one that will soon be available to the public.
