Description: GFI seeks to fund the identification and characterization of fermentation-derived ingredients that enhance alternative protein-based (AP) meat products to increase their adoption through improved taste, lowered cost, and nutritional benefits. These ingredients can be specific protein or protein classes that enhance the organoleptic properties of an AP meat, or a biomass product that contributes a significant percentage of the protein level as well as functionality/organoleptic benefit.
