In today's English listening practice we ask: Have you ever wondered what your dinner might look like in ten years' time? Would you eat meat that was grown in a laboratory instead of on a farm? Today we explore the world of "cultivated meat", that's meat grown from cells in a lab. We'll learn how scientists use a "bioreactor" to grow meat, and why many people feel "sceptical" about this new technology. The vocabulary you'll hear is perfect for talking about science, food, and the future in English. ✔️ Lesson transcript: [](https://adeptenglish.com/lessons/english-phrases-lab-grown-food-cultivated-meat/) Don't have much time?
