🚨 NO, you’re not accidentally buying lab-grown meat at the grocery store.

I keep seeing AI-generated posts and videos claiming that lab-grown meat is secretly showing up in grocery stores everywhere.

That’s simply not true.

Lab-grown meat IS real. It’s called cultivated or cell-cultured meat, and people are already eating it in the United States.

"Wildtype" cultivated salmon is being served at a handful of restaurants. Mission Barns has sold meatballs made with cultivated pork fat in California in 2025. Cultivated chicken from companies including UPSIDE Foods has also received regulatory clearance.

The FDA currently lists just five cultivated-animal products that have completed its premarket consultation process.

But, you're NOT walking into Walmart, Aldi, or your grocery store and unknowingly choosing between regular ground beef and shelves full of secret lab-grown beef.

The USDA also requires labels for cell-cultured meat and poultry to be reviewed and approved before those products can be sold.

So don’t let fake AI pictures or videos scare you into thinking our grocery stores have suddenly been flooded with mystery meat.

Should we be watching where this technology goes? Absolutely.

Should we demand clear labeling so people know EXACTLY what they’re buying? 100%.

But there’s enough REAL stuff to worry about with our food supply.

We don’t need to make things up. 👍

Vinegar is one of the cheapest cleaners in your kitchen AND it actually works. 🧴

White vinegar is about 5% acetic acid, which makes it great for cutting through mineral buildup, soap scum, hard-water spots, and some grease.

I use it because it’s simple, cheap, and doesn’t leave the house smelling like a chemical factory.

A basic cleaner is easy:

👉🏻 1 part white vinegar
👉🏻 1 part water
👉🏻 Put it in a spray bottle

It's great for things like glass, faucets, shower doors, stainless steel, and many bathroom surfaces.

But don't use it on everything...

🚫 Don’t use it on marble, granite, limestone, or other natural stone. The acid can damage the surface.

🚫 Never mix vinegar with bleach. That can create dangerous chlorine gas.

And one other important point: vinegar can help clean a surface, but I wouldn’t rely on ordinary household vinegar as your primary disinfectant when you actually need to kill serious pathogens.

For everyday cleaning though?

A $3 gallon jug of vinegar can replace $100 worth of bottles under your sink.

Sometimes the old-school solution is the best one. 👍🏻

Well, that escalated quickly! After my newsletter and a video about making your own salad dressing, people keep asking me: Okay, so which avocado oil should I actually buy now?

After the recent UC Davis findings, I wanted to dig deeper before recommending anything.

I went back through the newest research, independent testing, certification records, and company responses I could verify.

🥑 My number one choice right now?
Marianne's Avocado Oil. amzn.to/4wMjx9s

In the 2020 study, UC Davis found Marianne’s to be pure and not oxidized in its avocado oil bottle testing.

Since then, Marianne’s has added independent third-party verification through the Seed Oil Free Alliance, which says laboratory testing confirmed the oil was 100% pure and unadulterated.

It has also received the Clean Label Project Purity award

And this is super interesting:

In the newest 2026 UC Davis research, Marinne's was used as a reference for testing real avocado oil purity.

So if you ask me, that's my number one choice.

What about Chosen Foods?

I still consider Chosen Foods bottled avocado oil a good choice personally.

UC Davis tested the Chosen bottled oil in 2020 work the Marianne's and found it pure and non-oxidized.

The recent problems involving Chosen mayonnaise and salad dressings does not mean their avocado oil failed any testing

Those are different products.

The new UC Davis study tested finished products and found that 48 of 54 avocado-oil products contained oils inconsistent with authentic avocado oil.

That included:

🥑 93% of chips
🥑 71% of mayonnaise
🥑 100% of salad dressings

That’s why I've ALWAYS recommending making things like this yourself when you can. It's so easy as I showed in my newsletter yesterday. I'm buying an avocado oil I trust and making the mayo myself

Then I know exactly what went into it.

So, I’d call these the best independently verified products I can find right now... I can't say that these companies can guarantee every bottle forever. We see what happened.

Testing verifies what was actually tested.

That’s the standard I’m going to use when I recommend products to y’all. 🥑 I hope this helps 😊

I NEED SOME HELP WITH THIS ONE — and I’d really appreciate you sharing this. 👇

Yesterday, I made a Short/Reel about the words “distributed by” on food labels and how the company whose name is on the front isn’t the company actually manufacturing the product.
After I posted it, someone sent me a picture of the back of a jar of Primal Kitchen mayonnaise.

And guess what it says...🤦🏻‍♂️

“Distributed by: Primal Nutrition, LLC — Oxnard, CA.” Well, that got my attention because I own Primal Nutrition, my supplement company.Primal Nutrition LLC and MY Primal Nutrition are COMPLETELY different companies.

Primal Kitchen is owned by Kraft Heinz, a 25 BILLION dollar worldwide corporation. My company is an independently owned Primal Nutrition based in South Carolina.

Now it gets a little complicated, at least for me.

I own the federally registered PRIMAL NUTRITION trademark for dietary and nutritional supplements.Their company is heavily involved in the food space — mayonnaise, oils, dressings, sauces and other foods AND supplements.

That matters to me because expanding Primal Nutrition into real foods and other nutritional products is absolutely a direction I would like to take my company.

Now, let's add what just happened.

Last month, a UC Davis study found problems with the avocado oil composition in the Primal Kitchen mayonnaise AND salad dressings they tested.

So people are reading about Primal Kitchen mayonnaise, turning the jar around and seeing:

PRIMAL NUTRITION, LLC.

That is NOT my Primal Nutrition.

But how many consumers are going to know that? That's what I'm worried about. I have spent years building trust around my name and my recommendations. I’m now building Primal Nutrition around those same standards.

I don’t want somebody searching “Primal Nutrition” six months from now and associating my company with a food controversy involving a completely different company.

And I sure don’t want that confusion to follow me if I expand Primal Nutrition further into the food space. These are Two different companies. Different ownership. No affiliation whatsoever.

So this is where I need some help and advice, because I definitely know nothing about this.

⚖️ If you’re a trademark attorney or know a good one, please reach out.

And I’d really appreciate you SHARING THIS POST so we can make one thing really clear:

Victor Prince’s Primal Nutrition has NO affiliation with Primal Kitchen or Kraft Heinz.

I’ve worked too hard to build this name to ignore this.

🥑 Everybody’s freaking out about Chosen Foods mayonnaise right now.

I made a post about this last week after UC Davis testing showed that Chosen Foods Classic Mayo was one of the avocado-oil products that didn’t test consistently with pure avocado oil.

So, the next question I’m getting is:

“Should I stop buying Chosen Foods avocado oil too?”

Right now, I don’t think so.

Here's why.

The new study tested mayonnaise, chips and dressings made with avocado oil. It did NOT retest the bottles of Chosen Foods avocado oil you buy in the cooking-oil aisle.

And UC Davis has actually tested Chosen’s bottled avocado oil before.

In their 2020 study, only TWO brands tested as both pure avocado oil and non-oxidized:

🥑 Chosen Foods 🥑 Marianne’s

Chosen also says today that it tests every batch of its bottled avocado oil for purity. They don't say that about their other products.

So what happened with the mayonnaise?

The researchers themselves said the problem may be happening farther up the supply chain. Companies making mayonnaise, chips or dressings may be purchasing avocado oil through outside suppliers or brokers and not realize the oil they received has been adulterated.

That doesn’t excuse it. If the jar says 100% avocado oil, that’s what I expect to get. I have emailed the company and will let you know what I find out. But the fact that on their label, it says DISTRIBUTED BY Chosen Foods and not MANUFACTURED BY tells me they don't make it themselves.

It also doesn’t mean Chosen’s bottled avocado oil suddenly failed a purity test. It didn’t.

And this whole mess reinforces something I’ve been telling y’all for years:

Make your own mayonnaise.

Buy a bottle of avocado oil from a brand with a good testing history, add an egg, vinegar or lemon juice, mustard and salt, and hit it with an immersion blender.

It takes about a minute. I have a whole playlist with a ton of different mayonnaise recipes if you want to make your own: www.youtube.com/playlist?list...

Then you KNOW which oil went into your mayonnaise.

I’m still comfortable buying Chosen Foods or Marianne’s bottled avocado oil based on the purity testing we actually have.

But when it comes to mayonnaise, dressings and other foods that simply SAY they’re made with avocado oil?

I’m getting a whole lot more skeptical. 🥑

“Eating healthy is too expensive.”

Sometimes it is. But a lot of times, we’re comparing the wrong things.

A bag of chips might seem cheaper than ground beef at the checkout… until you compare the price per pound and what you’re actually getting for your money.

🥩 Beef gives you protein, iron, B12 and keeps you full.

🍓 Strawberries give you fiber, vitamin C and real nutrition.

🥛 Raw Milk gives you protein, calcium and other nutrients, if you can tolerate it.

Doritos, Oreos and beer?

Mostly calories with very little nutritional return.

And here’s the bigger problem: ultra-processed food is incredibly easy to overeat. You can burn through $5 worth of chips and still be hungry an hour later. Alcohol makes it WAYYY easier to eat those...

I’m not saying every healthy food is cheap.

But eating real food doesn’t automatically mean spending more money.

Sometimes the expensive food is the stuff that leaves you hungry enough to buy MORE food later. 🤷‍♂️

Look at cost per pound. Look at nutrition. Look at how full it keeps you.

The math changes COMPLETELY.

Protein bars have gotten ridiculous. 💸
$3… $4… sometimes $10 for a single bar that’s often loaded with sweeteners, gums, seed oils, and a laundry list of ingredients. After I was asked to promote a bar that were $10 apiece, which I declined, I made a video showing another option:
PEMMICAN.
This is basically the original protein bar.
For generations, people preserved meat by drying it, grinding it down, and mixing it with rendered animal fat. Some versions also included dried berries.
Mine used just 3 ingredients.
✅ High in protein
✅ Loaded with fat for energy
✅ Easy to carry
✅ No refrigeration needed
✅ And WAY cheaper than most packaged protein bars, although probably more expensive than when I first made the video...

We’ve gotten so used to buying food in shiny wrappers that sometimes we forget that people figured out how to make portable, nutrient-dense food hundreds of years ago.
Sometimes the “new” solution isn’t better.
Sometimes you need to look backward.

I got a LOT of comments on my lupini baked beans about how much trouble the preparation of the beans themselves are.

“Soak them for DAYS?”
“Change the water over and over?”
“Who has time for that?”

The easy solution is buying them already jarred or canned and the hard work is already done for you.

I get it. It's not that it's a lot of work, but it is a lot of time. But I think we’ve gotten so used to convenience that we’ve forgotten how much work traditionally went into making REAL food.

Think about some foods we still eat today.

🌽 Masa traditionally starts with dried corn that is cooked and soaked in an alkaline solution, washed, and then ground into dough and used then or dried into flour.

🍞 Sourdough, REAL sourdough, means maintaining a living starter and allowing dough to ferment for hours or even days.

🥬 Sauerkraut and other fermented vegetables can sit for weeks before they're ready.

🥛 Cheese takes culturing, draining, pressing and sometimes months of aging.

🫘 Dried beans are soaked and then cooked for hours. And lupini beans are one of the more extreme examples. Traditional bitter lupini beans have to be soaked and repeatedly rinsed to remove their bitter alkaloids before eating them.

Things like curing meat, making yogurt, preserving vegetables and grinding grains takes time and work.

People figured this stuff out generations ago. No microwave. No air fryer. No DoorDash. 😂

Today, if dinner takes longer than 20 minutes, we call it inconvenient.

Meanwhile, we’ll eat something manufactured in a factory with 30 ingredients because somebody can hand it to us through a window in 3 minutes. 🤔

I’m not saying we need to go back to spending half the day making dinner. I like convenience too and most of my meals are super easy and fast, using real whole food ingredients.

But somewhere along the way, we started thinking convenient food was normal food.

Fermenting. Soaking. Grinding. Slow cooking. Preserving.

These weren’t weird health trends.

They were FOOD.

We’ve gained a lot from modern convenience, but I think we’ve also forgotten some of the traditions that helped get us here.

Sometimes REAL FOOD TAKES A LITTLE WORK. 👍

And I’m okay with that. I hope you are too. 😊
