From cells to sashimi: Lab-grown salmon and the future of sustainable seafood
From cells to sashimi: Lab-grown salmon and the future of sustainable seafood


The world has become increasingly more concerned about environmental sustainability, food security, and ethical sourcing, making lab-grown or cultivated meat a promising solution.
Among the latest innovations in this space is lab-grown salmon, a product that replicates the taste, texture, and nutritional profile of traditional salmon, without the need to harvest a single fish from the ocean.
…
Unlike plant-based fish alternatives, like plant-based tuna and fishless fish fillets, which aim to mimic the flavour and texture of fish using vegetables and legumes, lab-grown salmon is biologically identical to the salmon you’d buy at the seafood counter.
In a significant milestone, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) approved the consumption of lab-grown salmon, confirming that it is safe to eat and meets all necessary health standards.
…
By addressing the ethical, environmental, and health concerns associated with traditional fishing and aquaculture, cultivated salmon offers a more sustainable and scalable alternative. … It’s a glimpse into a future where enjoying seafood no longer comes at the expense of the planet.
