Animal muscle tissue grown in an artificial setting, never attached to a
living animal.

In theory they can. Actually not many Nikta eat other talking species, but
the fact that the practice is allowed and even supported by Nikta tradition
and law is unique. Non-Nikta species have roughly the legal status of
non-talking animals in our culture. Usually the ones who spend a lot of
time talking to other species are the ones who treat them more as pets than
as beasts of burden or potential meals.
