Part 3Specific Social Impacts

Please complete part 2, 3, or 4 (or any combination) after the workshop interaction.

What do think are the most important changes that could arise in the United States if cultured meatgenerally replaced traditional meat products by 2050?

FoodIn terms of food and the food system in general, what changes might occur in the United States if culturedmeat generally replaced traditional meat products by 2050? Some factors to consider might be:

• Food prices• Cuisine diversity• Cuisine quality• Food consumption patterns (quantitative

or qualitative differences)• Vegetarian or vegan diets• Food security

• Food system sustainability• Food system resilience: the ability of a

system to maintain its functions andstructure in the face of internal andexternal change (e.g., drought or risingenergy prices) and to degrade gracefullywhen it must
