Saed News: Novameat, a company specializing in 3D printers for producing "meat," showcased its products at the MWC 2025 event, offering samples of their product in the form of tacos to attendees.
According to Saed News' Science and Technology Service, the Novameat 3D printer can create layers of meat that are completely edible, so there is no concern about the use of materials like resin in this food. However, it is important to note that the "meat" in this product is not animal meat; rather, Novameat has used plant fibers to create a substance that closely resembles real meat in appearance, texture, and taste.
According to Digiato, the company emphasizes that their printed product is not just a visual substitute for meat but can also function similarly to real meat in terms of nutritional value. The ultimate goal of Novameat's technology is to reduce the harmful environmental impacts of the meat industry without completely eliminating meat-based foods from people's diets.
Regarding the taste, people who had the chance to try these special tacos at the event stated that the product closely resembles real meat in taste, texture, and appearance. We will have to wait and see if this technology continues to perform well in future tests.
While you might think these printers will soon enter home kitchens, there are no such plans at the moment. Novameat's technology is primarily designed for businesses to produce ready-made products, like printed burgers, for consumers to buy packaged and cook at home.
