Chinese Scientists Create Eco-Friendly Fungal Protein to Outperform Chicken
Move over, chicken: Chinese researchers genetically supercharged the fungus Fusarium venenatum to produce a protein-packed, sustainable chicken substitute. With CRISPR gene editing (no cross-DNA), this ‘shroom-based protein slashes emissions even lower than the real deal. If this scales up, future burgers could be totally fungus—and way greener.
