eli5: Is cultured yogurt a similar process or idea to lab grown meat? Could you call it “cultured meat?”

Yogurt is not meat. It is real cream produced by an animal and then infested with bacteria. The bacteria are not meat. They are disconnected single cells and constitute only a fraction of the mass of yoghurt. Meat grown in a lab would be a chunk of muscle, an arrangement of animal cells induced to multiply from a small sample. They would have to form at least a minimal structure to resemble meat.
