Impossible Foods is back with a new-and-improved plant-based burger, and we got a chance to try it out at CES 2019. Suffice it to say that our minds were blown by the Impossible Burger 2.0. Everything is dialed in -- the smell, the color, the texture, the flavor -- that it's hard to tell it's not actual beef.

At CES 2019, Impossible Food announced its new, improved Impossible Burger. This is the first time its recipe has received an upgrade since the award-winning plant-based meat debuted in 2016. Here's what makes the refreshed recipe better than its predecessor in every way.

New research has succeeded in growing plants in high-tech planters which use artificial soil made from lava rock. The planters regulate the water, nutrients, gas, and air that plants require and record the ways that plants adapt to conditions similar to those in space such as low levels of nitrogen.

Scientists from Massachusetts General Hospital have developed a new way of maintaining water and water-based solutions in their liquid form for long periods of time, at temperatures far below the usual freezing point. Here's why that could help transform organ preservation.

Even the food in Silicon Valley is getting high tech. No, we're not talking about meal-replacement shakes or coffee with butter in it - we're talking good, old-fashioned pizza. The pies from Zume Pizza are made by robots. And to help it reach new heights, the company is adding arms into the mix.
