Mold meat substitute

March 29, 2024

Scientists in the USA have created a meat substitute from mold, which is already being used to cook appetizing-looking cutlets. To obtain the taste and color of meat, they modified the genome of koji mold. It is said that the difference is still noticeable and it is too early to talk about its consumption, but in the future, the structure will definitely be improved. Ultimately, researchers want to achieve a taste that even the "most finicky connoisseurs" will be pleased with.
