MyForest Food Co., creator of whole-cut meat alternatives from gourmet mushroom mycelium and an affiliate of Ecovative, an expert in mycelium technologies, has announced its successful trial with Whitecrest Mushrooms Ltd. to produce MyBacon strips at commercial scale.
Bringing the forest to the table, MyForest grows mycelium—the vegetative root structure of mushrooms—to harvest complete proteins that mimic traditional meat cuts in both texture and flavor.
