Algae and Cells and Insects...Oh My!
People are passionate about food. It’s part of their self-identities. With growth in new categories of food, such as edible insects and cell-based meats, our whole food system is changing, but what does that mean for you? Consumers are now looking for more sustainable, more nutrient dense foods to feed their families and even though eating foods made from seaweed or insect proteins might sound a bit frightening at first, scientists are working hard to develop these innovative food ingredients into safe and convenient food options that are totally delicious.
