Tyson Foods will close two chicken plants in May, affecting nearly 1,700 employees. “While the decision was not easy, it reflects our broader strategy to strengthen our poultry business by optimizing operations and utilizing full available capacity at each plant,” Tyson said in a statement to CNBC.

A trio of climate scientists from Occidental College, Claremont Graduate University and the University of California, respectively, has found that after a 50-minute talk outlining the negative environmental impacts of raising and consuming meat, students ate on average 9% less meat over the following three years. In their paper published in the journal Nature Food, Andrew Jalil, Joshua Tasoff and Arturo Vargas Bustamante describe analyzing the eating habits of student volunteers.

Every few months in recent years, Western news readers have been treated to a macabre tale: companies in China building massive multistory pig factory farms to feed the country’s appetite for pork. The agro-industrial phantasmagoria grows in scale with every iteration.

The maggot-like larvae of lesser mealworms — a type of shiny black beetle — and house crickets will become the third and fourth insects that can be sold as food for people in the European Union. Eight more applications await approval. On Tuesday, the EU gave the greenlight to the sale of the larvae in powder, frozen, paste, and dried forms. The crickets can be sold as partially defatted powder. For many Europeans, the thought of eating creatures that wriggle or crawl in any form isn't exactly appealing.

Once again, the idea that space is going to be Vegetarian, is making the rounds of social media. There is close to no chance of that happening. If people can live there, they can make a profit raising meat there, and will. Only violence against those that want to do it can prevent it. That level of violence is costly, has little chance of succeeding and would most likely see the project ended.

Israeli researchers studying the nutrition of Stone Age humans say the species spent some 2 million years as hyper-carnivorous “apex predators” that ate mostly the meat of large animals. The study at Tel Aviv University, in collaboration with Portugal’s University of Minho, challenges views that prehistoric humans were omnivores and that their eating habits can be compared to those of modern humans, TAU said in a statement.

I don’t think I’ve ever made a new year resolution. But this year I’m going to stop telling people that I don’t eat meat. It’s not that I do eat meat – I don’t. The thing is, when I tell people that I don’t eat meat, I’m saying it to be polite. I use that form of words because I don’t want to offend people. So, from now on I’m going to be more honest. I’m just going to tell people that I don’t eat animals.

Suppliers of beef to McDonald’s, Taco Bell and Walmart are sourcing meat from US farms that use antibiotics linked to the spread of dangerous superbugs, an investigation has found. Unpublished US government records obtained by the Bureau of Investigative Journalism and the Guardian show farms producing beef for meat packing firms Cargill, JBS, and Green Bay are risking public health by still using antibiotics classed as the “highest priority critically important” to human health (HP-CIAs).

Suppose Catholic head Pope Francis were to return to the days of no meat in Catholic churches across the globe. In that case, The change could reduce millions of metric tonnes in greenhouse gases every year to a new study by the University of Cambridge.

The lie was delicious. For years, Americans consumed their frothy, full-dairy cappuccinos, marbled meat and flaky fried chicken without worry. The food was cheap. The drive-throughs, abundant. And the supply seemed infinite — until it wasn’t.

Oktoberfest — the annual two-week festival in Munich, Germany, that attracts some 6 million attendees a year — originally began in 1810 as the gaudy celebration of a royal marriage. Today, it’s primarily a good reason for visitors to drink about 2 million gallons of beer while eating nearly half a million roast chickens and over 400,000 sausages.

Netherlands' agricultural success based on its pioneering farming methods is now again at the forefront of food innovation thanks to its cultured meat ecosystem. Delft-based Meatable, one of the country’s cultured meat companies, has just unveiled its first fully cultured product: a pork sausage, said to ‘even produce the signature sizzle in the pan’. After its Series A funding in 2021 where it raised $47 million, Meatable has worked on its commercial launch refining its process to grow cultivated meat using its opti-ox™ technology, so that it only needs one single cell sample to then replicate meat tissues.

The building of the world’s largest bioreactors to produce cultivated meat has been announced, with the potential to supply tens of thousands of shops and restaurants. Experts said the move could be a “gamechanger” for the nascent industry. The US company Good Meat said the bioreactors would grow more than 13,000 tonnes of chicken and beef a year. It will use cells taken from cell banks or eggs, so the meat will not require the slaughter of any livestock.

The oldest evidence of Homo erectus comes from an arid hillside near the border of Ethiopia and Kenya. Though the 1.9-million-year-old fossil is only a tiny shard, more complete, if more recent individuals show that the species looked recognizably human. The species had long legs and short arms. Its face was flat, without a chimp-like snout. Behind that face was a hefty brain, bigger than that of any of its predecessors.

Many Americans who choose to buy higher-priced beef products with reassuring labels like “Raised without Antibiotics” may actually be consuming steaks and burgers that do

Inflation may be at a 40-year high, but the cost of grazing livestock on public lands is lower today than it was 40 years ago. Last week, the Bureau of Land Management and Forest Service announced the latest federal rate: just $1.35. Adjusted for inflation, ranchers paid more than five times as much in 1981.
