About this event
In partnership with Angel Yeast.
Although alternative proteins overall offer a significantly more sustainable option compared to traditional meat and dairy, different types of alternative proteins have varying environmental impacts. Fermentation, our familiar friend from bread and beer, is fermenting a new wave in food: sustainable, protein-packed alternatives! Their magic lies in efficiency. Compared to traditional animal agriculture, fermentation requires a fraction of land and water, slashing environmental impact. The future holds exciting possibilities for this innovative approach to providing nutritious and environmentally friendly protein sources. The exciting world of fermentation-enabled food proteins offers a diverse range of ingredient options, both for the microbes themselves (yeast, algae, fungi, etc) and the nutrients they feed on (sugars, lipids, starches, etc). And it's not just about saving the planet. Scientists can use fermentation to craft proteins with specific nutritional needs in mind, whether it's boosting Omega-3s or tailoring amino acid profiles. And unlike livestock, fermentation scales rapidly, meeting the demands of a growing population without straining resources. This isn't just about replicating existing food. Fermentation unlocks a world of possibilities: steaks grown from fungi, lab-made dairy with perfect consistency, and endless variations of delicious, nutritious protein sources. As we will discuss in this webinar, challenges remain. Cost and regulation are hurdles to overcome. But the potential is undeniable. Fermentation-enabled proteins are poised to transform our food system, offering a sustainable, efficient, and delicious path to a protein-secure future.
