Late last week, KFC announced that the company is working on developing "the meat of the future", also known as 3D bioprinted chicken nuggets.

As the demand for plant-based meat alternatives continues to increase, KFC is one of the latest restaurant chains to jump on the faux-meat bandwagon; on July 16, the company announced its plans to develop "innovative 3D bioprinting technology to create chicken meat in cooperation with the 3D Bioprinting Solutions research laboratory," which means your Kentucky Fried Chicken nuggets may not be made from chicken much longer.
