Professor Post is developing a way to grow meat in a lab
Post教授正在研發一種在實驗室種植肉類的辦法,
because he believes that livestock farming is not good for the environment, not good for animals nor,
因為他認為畜牧對環境和動物都不利,
he says, is it going to satisfy the growing demand for meat.
而且也無法滿足人類日益增長的肉類需求。
His aim is to produce a burger that looks and tastes just like the real thing
他的目標是創造出一種樣式和口味與真實漢堡相似的人造漢堡。
but from what I saw at his lab, which is still a work in progress.
但是根據我從他實驗室里看到的,該實驗仍處于進展當中。
The flesh, grown from stem cells, is pale white and tasteless,
因為人造肉是用干細胞培育而成,無色無味,
so food technologists have had to mix in breadcrumbs, caramel and saffron to add flavor and juice to add color.
因此食物專家用面包屑,焦糖和藏紅花為其加味、用果汁為其上色。
The mixture is then put together to make the burger that will be cooked then eaten by two food writers.
所有用料添加完畢后進行烹制,最后制成漢堡由兩位美食作家品嘗。
Initial testing during the development process suggests that it won't taste great,
起初的試驗階段表明這一漢堡的口味有所欠佳,
but according to Professor Post, it will taste good enough.
但是Post教授表示,漢堡會越來越美味的。
