    And even though lab-grown chicken has FDA approval, there’s doubt whether lab meat will ever compete with the real thing. Chicken goes for $4.99 a pound at the supermarket. Upside still isn’t saying how much the lab version costs to make, but a few bites of it sell for $45 at a Michelin-starred restaurant in San Francisco.

    Dumb comparison? I’m pretty sure a few bites of real chicken is also going to cost a lot at a Michelin-starred restaurant.
