Some people eat meat. This meat may be from sheep, cows or chickens. Now, in Singapore, people can eat another, different meat. They call it ‘clean meat’. This meat is not from real animals. It doesn’t come from a farm.

This new ‘clean’ meat is big business. In the future, it will make a lot of money. Now, you can buy it in Singapore. Soon, other countries may sell clean meat too.
