The Campbell’s Company has rejected claims that it uses 3D-printed, lab-grown, or otherwise artificial chicken in its soups, calling the allegations “patently absurd” and reiterating that all of its chicken comes from USDA-approved U.S. suppliers.

The company, formerly known as the Campbell Soup Company, issued a statement on Nov. 25 after the emergence of an audio recording in which a senior IT executive appeared to disparage the company’s products and customers.
