But you're not growing milk in those facilities, only storing and processing it. That's an important distinction, because it means with milk it's totally fine to deal with those "single germs" with long-understood sterilization techniques.
If you try to sterilize your "lab grown meat" cultures to deal with the germs, you're going to destroy your "meat" too.

This is what I was talking about. > It can be done, as has been with breweries, but it is os not an easy task. I think growing meat in a vat is only superficially similar to brewing beer.
