Insect-protein startup raises $250 million in funding

InnovaFeed, one of the leading producers of insects for animal and plant nutrition, has raised $250 million in a round of funding led by Qatar’s sovereign wealth fund, reports Business Wire.

Countless companies have entered the “alternative protein” market in recent years, many claiming to offer more sustainable and healthy products than those typically found in supermarket meat aisles. Companies like Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat offer plant-based meat substitutes, creating vegan options meant to replicate the taste and texture of meat. Others are developing cultured meat, which is meat grown from animal cells in a laboratory.

I'll have to spend more time scrutinizing ingredient lists to ensure I'm not buying food that contains insects or fake meat. It may be hard to tell... or impossible unless the govmint requires packages to be labeled when that stuff is part of the contents.

You know though how “progressives” like “renaming” things though.

Gives new meaning to the phrase: sharing a roach.

Buy then they may just figure out that spotted lanternflies are better than anchovies on pizza

Maybe one day we will all cease eating by the old fashioned way of chewing and swallowing and get our nutrition from insect filled bags through feeding tubes. Just think, no shopping, no cooking, no restaurants, no time wasted on going out to eat, just a food bag strapped to your belt with a constant drip into your stomach.

No more killing animals for food, no more cow farts, no fertilizer for crops, no diesel fuel for tractors. Just good healthy insect paste. Definitely the future of eating. No steak for you!!

Works for astronauts and Martians. I'm neither.
