Air New Zealand criticised for serving animal-free burgers

New Zealand’s acting prime minister, Winston Peters, has chided Air New Zealand for supplying ‘fake meat’ in its in-flight meals. Business class customers flying from LA to Auckland will have the option to order an animal-free burger patty made in a lab after a venture with Silicon Valley startup, Impossible Foods. Along with Peters, other politicians have argued the national carrier should be promoting the country’s second-largest exports, beef and lamb.
