Excuse Me, What Do You Mean by “Mammoth” Meatball?
I was scrolling through my news feed recently and stumbled upon this culinary abomination.
Evidently, not even vanishing from existence can save a species from the insatiable appetite of humankind.
If the thought of munching on a meatball concocted from extinct Mammoth DNA tickles your taste buds, brace yourself for a gastronomic adventure!
In the realm of woolly mammoths, a start-up named Vow decided to turn the tables and serve up history for dinner.
Behold, the mammoth meatball — part Jurassic Park, part MasterChef, and a generous helping of “you’ve got to be kidding me.”
But fear not, animal enthusiasts! No actual mammoths were harmed in the making of this delectable beast.
Instead, Vow cleverly used cells from sheep and African elephants to fill in the mammoth’s genetic blanks, because why not take a leaf out of the Jurassic Park playbook?
The result? A protein-packed, lab-cultivated meatball, resurrected from the annals of history. Because there’s nothing like sinking your teeth into a long-lost relative of Dumbo.
