Dairy-free cheeses featuring novel fermented microbial protein to launch by year end, says Superbrewed Food
Dairy-free cheeses featuring a novel bacterial protein could hit the market by the end of the year, adding an intriguing new dimension to the burgeoning dairy-alternative space, says microbial fermentation specialist Superbrewed Food (formerly known as White Dog Labs).
Grown in fermentation tanks at record speed using a fraction of the inputs required to grow traditional food crops, or raise, feed and slaughter animals, Superbrewed Food’s fermented microbial protein (brand name TBD) will initially hit the market in branded retail products such as mozzarella, block cheddar, and cream cheese, said co-founder Dr Bryan Tracy.

Soup-To-Nuts Podcast: As food insecurity soars, Simply Organic funds innovative solutions
Since the pandemic began, food insecurity in America has increased exponentially, and stakeholders across the value chain are stepping up to provide relief, including Simply Organic, which is giving $150,000 to five organizations that not only help put food on the tables of those in need but which do so with an eye towards environmental sustainability and reducing the risk of food insecurity going forward.
Recognizing the dramatic impact of the pandemic on food insecurity, which Feeding America estimates has touched 17 million more people in the US since the outbreak began for a total of 54 million people nationwide, Simply Organic increased its giving by $50,000 during this grant cycle – bringing donations from the Simply Organic Giving Fund to more than $2 million over the past 20 years.

Oishii closes $50m Series A funding, sees itself as the 'Tesla' of strawberry vertical farming

Oishii closes $50m Series A funding, sees itself as the ‘Tesla’ of strawberry vertical farming
Oishii, a vertical farm growing Japanese omakase strawberries with 2-3x the sweetness of conventional US-grown strawberries, has closed $50m in Series A funding led by SPARX Group to scale its business for mass market consumption.
The $50m investment from SPARX Group’s Mirai Creation Fund II – a fund established by Toyota Motor Corporation, Sumitomo Mitsui Banking Corporation, and SPARX – will be put towards expanding Oishii’s proprietary vertical farming technology which can grow strawberries indoors at a commercial scale.
The company will also use the capital to grow and produce other fruits and vegetables.

RightRice Risotto takes rice from side dish to convenient, plant-based meal solution
RightRice has launched its newest innovation in the rice category, RightRice Risotto, a veggie-based product line that is dairy-free using just water while achieving the same level of creaminess the well-known rice dish is known for (in under 15 minutes), says the company.
Keith Belling, founder of
RightRice, says the high-level goal for the brand has always been to reimagine the rice aisle and bring to market nutritious plant-based main meal solutions that deliver on taste and convenience for consumers.
“As we’ve come to really understand the versatility of our product and consumer needs, we’ve seen the opportunity to look beyond rice as a favorite side dish and move towards this plant-based meal solution notion,” Belling told FoodNavigator-USA.

'The Cadillac of fibers…' Upcycled ingredients startup Comet-Bio gears up for commercial launch of arabinoxylan prebiotic fiber

He added:
"The challenge with some other prebiotic fibers such as inulin [chicory root fiber]
is that you need 5g to get a prebiotic effect, but if you take 7g you may get a stomachache [although suppliers have
so there’s a narrow therapeutic window, whereas we have a really wide one.”
On a more practical level, Arrabina’s low viscosity means it will not gel or impact texture when added as a supplement to protein powders or as a fiber boost for nutrition bars, baked goods, and drinks, he said.
What are prebiotics?
The
definition of 'prebiotic' agreed by the International Scientific Association for Probiotics and Prebiotics (ISAPP) in 2017 is: “

NotCo granted US patent for AI technology, rolls out to new US retailers: ‘The momentum is just unbelievable’
By Elaine Watson
Santiago-based food tech company NotCo has been granted a first-of-its kind US patent for its AI technology, which it claims gives it a clear edge in the race to reverse engineer animal foods and put them back together - molecule by molecule - with plants, creating next-generation meat and dairy alternatives.
Billed as the ‘Impossible Foods/Beyond Meat of Latin America’ (its plant-based RebelWhopper is sold at Burger King and Papa John’s in Chile with more countries to follow soon),

SynBioBeta: Synthetic biology and the future of sustainable natural flavor production

Ultimately, “
more than 100% of today’s market could be served by synthetic biology,” added fellow panelist Casey Lippmeier, VP innovation at synthetic biology specialist
Conagen, which provides the science underpinning products it sells directly or via affiliates such as Blue California, Sweegen, and BASF.
To those wondering if Lippmeier’s math is a little off, he clarified:
“Let me explain what I mean by that… The thing about synthetic biology, is that in addition to making all the wonderful molecules that exist in nature, you can make brand new ones too… and of course you do all the safety testing, but at the end of the day they could provide some very interesting flavor - and especially fragrance - solutions that currently don’t exist today, so that’s where the ‘more than 100%’ comes from.”
