Feed ingredients company Calysta said it has joined forces with seafood giant Thai Union to offer the world its first taste of commercially farmed shrimp fed on protein produced from natural gas.
Participants at the Seafood Expo trade fair in Brussels are being offered pan-fried shrimp fed by Thai Union using Calysta’s alternative trademarked FeedKind protein.
“By working with FeedKind, we are able to offer shrimp that have been grown using feed that has completely replaced the fish caught for fishmeal in the feed with an innovative alternative protein,” Thai Union Global Director of Corporate Affairs and Sustainability Darian McBain said.
