Episode Synopsis

In Ep. 95, Quorn USA President Judd Zusel discusses how the O.G. alt-protein company ­– started with the discovery of a microorganism in the fungi family called Fusarium in the 1960s – is methodically building its presence in the U.S. market using sustainable mycoproteins that provide fiber, low levels of saturated fat and no cholesterol. The fermentation process creates 1,500 tons of mycoprotein from just under a gram of the microorganism, making the ingredient highly sustainable, environmentally friendly and highly nutritious.
