The Vow lab-grown foie gras has been announced by the brand as a decidedly more ethical take on the classic French delicacy that will provide impressive taste and texture, while also helping to democratize access.

The lab-grown delicacy consists of Japanese quail cells that have been cultured in the lab to grow the food rather than require a duck or goose. This takes some of the ethical implications out of the equation and also helps to reduce the amount of money it would cost to enjoy the delicacy for a win-win situation.

The Vow lab-grown foie gras was put in the spotlight in a new menu created by Chef Masa Takayama to showcase just how it could be utilized in real world scenarios.
