MyFOREST FOODS
MyFOREST FOODS has pioneered a sustainable approach to satisfy the growing demand for meat alternatives through its innovative use of mycelium. Founded on the principle of ecological responsibility, the company harnesses the natural efficiency of fungi to produce MyBacon, a plant-based food with the savory texture and taste of traditional bacon. Utilizing a unique vertical farming technique, MyFOREST FOODS cultivates gourmet mushroom strains indoors, carefully controlling environmental factors to encourage the growth of whole cuts of mycelium.
Their process begins with selecting wild mushroom strains, which are then nurtured inside their state-of-the-art facility. Here, precise conditions are maintained to grow the mycelium in whole forms using a specialized blend of woodchips as a substrate. This method not only produces a high-quality, meatless product but also allows the woodchips to be composted afterward, enhancing sustainability.
Once harvested, the mycelium is crafted into whole-cut strips, akin to slicing pork belly, and each strip is seasoned and brined with minimal ingredients. The final product, brushed with coconut oil, offers consumers a delicious, pan-ready MyBacon that embodies both the heart and the smart of sustainable eating.
At MyFOREST FOODS, the commitment extends beyond their innovative products to embody a philosophy that places people and purpose above profit. The company’s dedication to feeding the future responsibly invites consumers to taste and feel the love and thoughtfulness baked into every bite.
