It's made by the Israeli alternative-meat startup Redefine Meat, and the technology behind it is one of many contenders in today's sizzling-hot international race to capitalize on the growing faux-meat market.
Redefine Meat isn't focusing on alternatives to ground beef or sausages, but whole-cut steaks — an area of the market that has yet to hit the mainstream. "There is an amazing industry of alternative meat that is focused on minced meat. And actually the meat industry is driven by the whole-muscle cuts," CEO Eshchar Ben-Shitrit told Reuters. "Steaks, roast, slow cooking, grilling — everything that an animal can do we want to do the same or even better." Ben-Shitrit is focused on creating industrial-level 3D printers that would ultimately be sold to meat distributors around the globe and become part of the meat supply chain. "The idea is to replace a cow. So each of our machines produce in a day exactly like a cow, up to 250 [kilograms] in a single day," he said. Faux meat is believed to be significantly better for the environment, requiring less water and energy and releasing fewer fossil fuels than livestock — the CEO calls it "the best way to fight climate change, to deliver healthier solutions and food to the entire population of the planet." At this stage in development, Redefine Meat is not disclosing how much the printers will cost. The plan is to keep the price of its 3D-printed steaks comparable to traditional ones, which can range from $5 to $12 per pound. The company hopes to debut the steaks at high-end restaurants in Israel, Switzerland, and Germany by the end of 2020. But it will be awhile before the printers are part of the meat industrial complex. The machines produce only up to 13 pounds of meat an hour, and next year, the company plans to release a new generation of machines that will print 44 pounds an hour. By comparison, American slaughterhouses can collectively process over 100,000 cows a day, each of which yields hundreds of pounds of beef. In the meat industry, profit margins are greatest on whole-animal cuts like steaks. The key to those profits is creating a product with the same taste and texture as traditional meat, Redefine Meat food engineer Alexey Tomsov said. "We analyzed the different components that make those beautiful cuts and … we identified three main components — the muscle, the blood, and the fat," he said. "These are the components that we need to mimic in order to reach the perfect beautiful steak." Redefine Meat's recipe contains soy and pea proteins, coconut fat, and sunflower oil, among other ingredients. Though the full list is secret, the company says all ingredients are plant-based and vegan. The company has some competition. Israel is a hot spot for alternative-meat companies developing both lab-grown and 3D-printed food. In Spain, the startup Novameat is also working on 3D-printed steaks and recently developed a whole-muscle version of pork. Big companies including Tesco and Unilever are developing plant-based meats too. Venture-capital money is pouring in, and the global faux-meat market is projected to reach a value of $8.1 billion by 2026, according to Allied Market Research. They're all racing to convince consumers that a lab-grown product can taste as good as the real thing. "At the end of the day, technology is important, but what's more interesting is to have a really delicious and tasty food product that you can cut through and have a bite, and be excited," Ben-Shitrit said.

I can always count on Aldi to bring the excellent finds that I wasn’t even aware I needed. Heck, I didn’t even know these things existed!
I am team Root Beer All The Way, and my FAVORITE root beer of ALL TIMES is Barq’s — it has bite, afterall! Right now, courtesy of Aldi Finds — of course!! — you can get these awesome boxes of Barq’s Frozen Root Beer and Vanilla Ice Cream Float icy pops. I think I might be in love! There is NOTHING better during the summer — or anytime, really — than the flavor of a good Barq’s Root Beer Float with vanilla ice cream! I mean, my weird husband likes chocolate ice cream in his, but he’s not normal. Ha! You can get this GREAT find right in the frozen section at your local Aldi. They are about 3 bucks for a box of 8 – 3-ounce tubes. My goodness, that is EXCELLENT for an ice cream treat! It’s totally time to stock up my freezer for the summer! I mean, can it even officially be summer without a good frozen treat to eat by the pool, under the sun? Since they are a seasonal Aldi Find product, you won’t find them in the freezer at your Aldi for long. You have to scoop them up when you find them! I mean, throw those bad boys right in your cart. Don’t hesitate to think about it. The best news for SOME PEOPLE, they are only 80 calories per tube of this awesome root beer float ice cream. You can, literally, fit these into just about any diet. And really, I don’t want to be on a diet where I can’t sneak in a frozen treat every once in a while, AMIRITE?!? Here’s to a happy, most tasty summer!! While you are at Aldi picking up your Barq’s Root Beer And Vanilla Ice Cream Float icy pops, you have got to head down the Aldi Finds aisle, and check out these Pineapple Slicers they have for 5 bucks! I have already used mine SO MANY TIMES, and it’s not even officially summer yet! ABOUT AMANDAAmanda lives in NC with her sweet little family and her off-the-wall dachshund.

If you are a fan of making Buffalo Chicken Dip for any occasion, you've probably followed the recipe on the back of the Frank's RedHot bottle. But now the company is making your dip recipes even easier, with seasoning mixes to make all sorts of stuff.
These mixes were spotted by Instagrammer @FoodieWithTheBeasts back in October and from the looks of it, there are two; one for ranch dip (they're coming for you, Hidden Valley!) and one for queso dip. For the ranch dip, you'll just mix it with sour cream and for the queso spice blend, you just add it to milk, tomatoes, and cheese to whip up a dip. Truly simple! If you really wanna get fancy, I think these would both be incredible to add to Buffalo Chicken Dip. Think about it: There is usually ranch, cheese, and hot sauce in it so what could be easier than keeping these around to whip up a quick dip. @Junkfoodinthetrunk3 on Instagram also spotted the queso mix more recently, and said it's a great option for summertime barbecues. OK yeah, you're probably still going to need hot sauce and other stuff, but this will seriously punch up the flavor. Frank's even provided a Buffalo Mac And Cheese recipe on its site (using the queso mix) that you're going to want to try. This content is imported from {embed-name}. You may be able to find the same content in another format, or you may be able to find more information, at their web site. FoodieWithTheBeasts found these at Safeway, but you can also order them on Amazon or find them at Kroger, Food4Less, and other grocery stores via Instacart. All you have to do is start dreaming up what cheesy, ranch-y concoctions you can make with these. Shared from KRISTIN SALAKY News EditorKristin Salaky is the news editor at Delish.com covering viral foods, product launches, and food trends. I consider myself to be an outspoken advocate for spicy, crunchy snacks of all varieties. Hot Cheetos? My jam. Flamin' Hot Doritos? Right up my alley. These new Sriracha Almonds from Sam's Club? Not a want, but a need. Let's break this down. Almonds are arguably one of the easiest snacks out there. When you want something quick and filling, a handful of almonds does the trick. They're good enough plain, but they are also a blank canvas for so many different flavors. You can honey-roast them or add some salt and vinegar (or whatever you're into), which is what makes these Sriracha ones such a game-changer. Sriracha sauce isn't just a hot sauce that focuses entirely on being spicy. There are hints of garlic and vinegar that go with the chili flavor to really make it savory and spicy. According to the almond bag, Sriracha sauce is a spice level between bell peppers and habanero peppers. These almonds from Sam's Club are made with the famous Huy Fong brand of Sriracha too, so they're the real deal. Each bag is about one-and-a-half pounds and costs $10.98 so you'll get your money's worth and have enough to snack on for a while. The bags are resealable too so freshness can be maintained between snacking. Sriracha almonds can be eaten as if by the handful, but can also be mixed into trail mix for even more versatility. The spice of these counter balanced with the sweetness of dried fruit—what's not to love? Shared from https://www.delish.com/

With all the best flavors of a margarita, this cake has strawberry and lime flavors, not to mention tequila. Pair this cake with tacos, enchiladas or any Mexican feast for the best dinner ever. INGREDIENTS
Using a mixer, cream the butter and sugar together. Beat in the egg whites, milk and vanilla. Slowly add in the flour mixture until it is combined. Next, add in the lime juice, tequila, and lime zest. Divide the cake batter between 3 prepared pans. Bake for 25 minutes or until the cake is done. Allow the cakes to cool completely. While the cakes are cooling, beat together all of the frosting ingredients and then place one cup of frosting into a piping bag and set it aside. DECORATE THE CAKE Use a cake leveler, remove the domes from the cakes. Place the first cake layer on the cake board and smooth 1 cup of frosting over the cake. Place the 2nd layer on top and repeat. Add the 3rd layer on top and frost the entire cake. Use the piping bag to pipe frosting on the top of the cake. Place slices of lime and strawberries on the cake. Add lime zest over the top of the cake. Place into the fridge for an hour to allow the frosting to harden up a bit and then cut it into slices to serve. IS THIS SAFE FOR KIDS TO EAT?Whenever someone asks me this about a recipe that has alcohol in it, I have to say this is a personal choice. This cake has 1 cup of tequila in the cake batter. Some people will say the alcohol will burn off and leave only the flavor. Other people are not comfortable with the idea because there is no way to know for sure. DOES MARGARITA CAKE HAVE TO BE REFRIGERATED?Since this cake has fresh fruit in it and on top, I like to store it in the refrigerator. If the cake will be eaten, fully, with no leftovers in a few hours of serving, it can be left out. However, I would recommend storing any leftovers in the refrigerator. This Strawberry Margarita Cake is absolutely amazing. Tasting like a sweet combination of strawberries and lime, with a burst of tequila, this delicious layer cake is going to make you happy. Moist and tender, this lime and strawberry cake is absolutely amazing.INGREDIENTS

Foods as classic as sandwiches often don't need much improvement, but Uncrustables have changed the game for picky kids (and adults!!) who can't even when it comes to crusts. While the brand usually sticks to the typical PB&J version, apparently Uncrustables makes savory sandwiches stuffed with taco meat and BBQ chicken.
Go ahead, pick your jaw up off the floor—I'll do the same. Something about Uncrustables coming in other flavor besides peanut butter and jelly is surprising, confusing, and thrilling all at once. Surprising because I had absolutely no idea this was a thing, confusing because how exactly are you supposed to eat them, and thrilling because, well, I totally need to try them. @Foodiewiththebeasts saw these Uncrustables at a Target store for $3.99, so they're probably at a grocery store near you as well. The taco meat version is made with beef, cheese, salsa, and taco seasoning and the BBQ chicken features all white meat chicken in barbecue sauce. If you're thinking that this stuffing would probably leak through or soak up the usual white bread that a PB&J Uncrustable is made with, the photos on the box show that the bread of these versions is different than usual. It looks much thicker and more like a potato roll-type texture. These Uncrustables are meant to be kept frozen and then heated before eating. I'd assume you can zap them for a minute or so in the microwave, or even crisp them up using a toaster or an air fryer. There's really not much else to say besides I definitely need these ASAP. Oh, and you're welcome for the info! ALEXIS MORILLO Editorial FellowAlexis Morillo is the Editorial Fellow at Delish.com where she covers breaking food news and viral food trends. The internet has hacks for everything and some of them become more popular than others. Creamy coffee (AKA Dalgona coffee) was one of the food world's best kept secrets...until people starting making it all over TikTok. Now, that same technique is being used for creamy strawberry milk and chocolate milk.
ICYMI, Dalgona coffee only requires three ingredients and the milk of your choice. After some serious mixing, the finished product is essentially a fluffy cloud of coffee goodness that will mix into your milk and give you a delicious iced coffee in the end. Easy enough, but people have found even more ways to make this trend their own by using less dishes, making it with matcha powder, different add-ons, and more. People have figured out how to use the same process to make non-caffeinated drinks, like different flavored milks, for example. For the coffee, you just use instant coffee, sugar, and water to make the creamy part, then serve it on ice and milk. For the milks, it's essentially the same process, just with milk powders like Nesquik or Hershey's chocolate to get the flavors. While the trick to make the coffee is to have equal parts instant coffee, sugar, and water to help control the flavor and make sure it's not too bitter, there is a little bit more leeway with the milk recipes. Since strawberry powder is already sweet as is, it is mixed with heavy cream to get the desired texture. The chocolate powder can be mixed with sugar too if you want, but it looks like this recipe can truly be adjusted according to your preference. After all, practice makes perfect. From: Delish US |
