A very expensive burger will be served up in London next month - the first restaurant burger in history not be carved from a cow, but grown in a lab dish.

The burger will be served at an invitation-only event in London, created by a “mystery backer” who who funded the £216,000 project led by Professor Mark Post of the University of Maastricht.

The burger is created from around 20,000 strips of muscle tissue which are grown in a jelly-like “growth medium” from beef stem cells.

Sounds inviting when they put it like that.... :lol:

I wonder if they could use a "growth medium rare" when they do mine?...  :undecided:
