“…Currently, most innovation focuses on algae as an ingredient in other products, however, there are developments in creating algae-based molecules that behave and taste comparable to meat.
San Diego-based company Triton Algae Innovations is one company making such developments, although they aren’t aiming to make algae steaks just yet. Co-founder and scientist Miller Tran told Forbes “our angle is that we want to be an ingredient provider.”
He elaborated that their aim is to “boost existing foods with proteins and nutrients that might not be available or as abundant in other sources.”
