Fat Equals Flavor with Saam Shahrokhi


Listen Later

Today's guest is Saam Shahrohki, Chief Technology Officer at cultivated fat producer, Mission Barns. Saam is one of the first people to make cultivated meat, and the first to release cultivated fat into the world.

Recently celebrating their first-ever FDA approval for their cultivated fat, Saam reflects on what it took to bring a (not so) brand new food to market, how complex designing fat can be, what it's like working with FDA and USDA, and where he sees the food production world going.
