The article contradicts this quote from The Guardian[1]:

> "While numerous companies have come up with palatable formulations, few report being able to make their products for less than about $100 for a meal-size serving."

The OP article states that prices would have to come down by a factor of 4,000. If The Guardian is right, they would only need to fall by a factor of 20 to reach the (heavily subsidized!) price of beef in the US.

I suspect that the raw meat costs (not including packaging, distribution, retail) in a “meal-size serving” (presumably 3oz) are less than a dollar.
