Why is a mad scientist allowed to poison our food? And feed us synthetic fake food.
A “revolutionary” and highly debated shift in food technology has officially reached American bakeries as Savor, a California-based startup backed by Bill Gates’ Breakthrough Energy Ventures, rolls out a lab-created butter made directly from carbon dioxide and hydrogen. By utilizing a cutting-edge thermochemical process that chemically synthesizes fat molecules to mirror traditional dairy, the company produces a “sustainable alternative” that completely eliminates the need for cows, plants, or agricultural land. Strikingly, this “butter made from air” has bypassed the standard pre-market Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approval process. Savor achieved this by utilizing the legal framework known as self-affirmed GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe), which allows independent panels of qualified experts to establish an ingredient’s safety without waiting for a formal federal review. While pioneering establishments like San Francisco’s Michelin-starred One65 and Jane the Bakery are already incorporating the product into their “upscale” pastries, the quiet commercial launch has sparked immense political and consumer backlash.
