Tokyo based IntegriCulture has successfully developed lab-grown foie gras using duck liver cells.

The Japanese biotechnology company held a test taste for 15 participants at a hotel in Tokyo. The chef prepared two flans, one using cell-cultivated foie gras and one without.

Based on the reported conclusions, Integriculture has decided to move forward with the development of it’s technology. The company plans to provide food safe and cost effective foie gras once regulations surrounding the consumption of lab-grown meat are available in Japan.

Currently it costs the company over $200 to produce 100 grams of foie gras and with further technological developments aims to reduce the cost to $2 per 100 grams within the next three years. The global foie gras market size was valued at USD $1.17 billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD $1.2 billion by 2028, growing at a CAGR of 1.8% from 2021 to 2028.
