Cell-Based Fish + Macadamia Nut Oil – Xtalks Food Podcast Ep. 21

Is cell-based fish the next big food innovation? In this episode of the Xtalks Food Podcast, Sydney discusses the technology behind cell-based fish, in which muscle cells from a fish are extracted and propagated in ideal conditions inside a bioreactor. The team discusses its potential to disrupt the fishing industry and wonders whether there is a large enough consumer market for alt-fish products.

Also in this episode, Mira talks about Strength Genesis, an Australian macadamia nut oil brand hoping to disrupt the olive oil market.

The team discusses whether these aspects will be enough to convert olive oil fans to team macadamia nut oil.
