    Cultured meat is made from animal cells that grow in large laboratories instead of animals. The goal is to make products that are virtually identical to normal animal meat without the entire animal. On the other hand, single cell protein grows microbes (bacteria, fungi or algae) and harvests them to generate protein rich product, which…

A critical factor of the environmental impact of microbial food production is the feedstock used for microbial growth. Methanol is a promising feedstock, because it can be produced with renewable electricity and…
