Consumers might not care about CRISPR Mycoprotein, Fusarium venenatum, or metabolic engineering, but they absolutely care about food that’s cheaper, cleaner, and doesn’t taste like damp cardboard.

Researchers have taken the fungus behind mainstream mycoprotein (think Quorn) and hacked it to grow 88% faster, using 44% less sugar, and slashing emissions by up to 60%.
