Study Finds Food Solution to Climate Problem + Nowadays Plant-Based Chicken Nuggets – Xtalks Food Podcast Ep. 39

A new study from Stanford University suggests one greenhouse gas can be captured and transformed into feed for farmed fish. In this episode of the Xtalks Food Podcast, Sydney talks about a recent study that unveils a cost-effective method of producing fishmeal from methane, a greenhouse gas emitted and flared from industrial sources across the US. The team wonders whether this sustainable solution can be used to produce other animal feeds and how farmed fish produced with this method will be marketed to consumers.

Also, in this episode, Mira talks about Nowadays, a plant-based chicken nugget maker that found a way to reduce the number of ingredients and produce a healthier chicken nugget alternative. The GMO- and soy-free nuggets do not need to use any binders, thickeners or artificial ingredients and contain only seven, easy-to-pronounce ingredients. The team commends Nowadays for creating a healthier plant-based product than many of its alternatives and wonders whether the product will come down in price over time.
