The Senate of the Italian Republic approved on July 19, the bill preventing the

production and import of cultivated products, with the aim to protect national

interest, food heritage and consumers' health. Out of the 154 senators in the

highest chamber, 93 voted in favour of the bill for the "the protection of human

health and the environment in relation to the production, marketing and

importation of foods of non-animal origin". The bill still needs to go through the

Chamber of Deputies to be fully approved. If approved, Italy would become the

first country to ban the marketing, importation, and production of synthetic

food.
