Legumes, mealworm powder and duck cell biomass produced in a lab may seem worlds apart but they all feature in conversations about how our food system is evolving. We look at why so-called alternative proteins are getting so much interest across the world and why their future is such a hot topic. Together with our guest E rmolaos Ververis we discuss how their safety is assessed and bust some common myths along the way. Join us as we explore how food innovation is shaping our protein choices.
