Made from ocean snapper analog combined with Bmmune, the product boasts high levels of omega-3, omega-6, and omega-9 fatty acids, offering a unique nutritional profile. CULT Food Science emphasizes that Marina Cat provides a low-calorie snack option for felines, setting a new standard in pet nutrition.
Umami Bioworks CEO Mihir Pershad expressed enthusiasm for the partnership, citing it as a pivotal step toward revolutionizing the cultivated pet food market. With plans to establish a state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Malaysia alongside partner Cell AgriTech, Umami Bioworks aims to become a leader in cell cultivation technology within the Asia-Pacific region by 2025.

The offerings include Smoked Salmon, Kimbap Korean Veggie Rice Roll, and Salmon Avocado Roll, reflecting Konscious Foods' commitment to providing delicious and nutritious options to consumers nationwide.
President and Founder Yves Potvin underscored Konscious Foods' rapid ascent in the plant-based food landscape since its debut at Expo West last year. With a mission to overcome taste, texture, price, and convenience barriers associated with plant-based foods, Konscious Foods aims to make plant-based eating accessible and appealing to a diverse range of consumers.
