This #NHK video on farming #silkworm for food really surprised me, never heard about it before.

#Fibroin (silk protein) is extracted from silk cocoon fibres: just a small amount of it gives food a softer, moister texture, and helps to bring out the flavour of other ingredients. (relevant part starts at 9:00, but it is worth watching the whole video, only 13 min long)

Cannot resist to share some #NHK videos I saw recently on this subject.

Many people are happy and grateful to have #insects as part of a satisfying meal. I was surprised that some insects (e.g. palm weevil) are eaten for their high fat content (60%).

A very interesting video (28 min long).

An example from the US. This is a 15 minutes interview with #UmaValeti, a former cardiologist and CEO/Founder of #UpsideFoods, who was a pioneer in the production of #LabGrownMeat through cell cultivation technology.

So let's feature some of these #AlternativeProtein innovators, 3 different types of businesses from 3 continents.

This is #SolarFoods from Finland, a company making ‘Food Out Of Thin Air’.

"On the outskirts of Helsinki, a pioneering factory is harvesting natural, scalable proteins all from fermented bacteria."

Another good (and short!) article explaining the need for sustainable
#AlternativeProtein
#CultivatedFood
#CellularAgriculture
#MicrobialProtein
#MicrobialFermentation
(has many names🤓)

The article explains the necessity and inevitability of providing money and political clout behind these new technologies and help them scale-up ASAP. Also highlights their positive effects on the environment and humans.

Dear Friends,

#AltProtein
Two #USA companies were granted permits to market cultivated meat. That is #BioIdentical #meat, in both cases the approval was for #chicken meat grown from cells. #CulitvatedMeat, when produced at scale, uses far less #energy and natural resources than raising an entire animal for the fleshy parts.
Here is the press release from the #ThinkTank, Good Food Institute that advocates for alternative protein such as this.
