"The jury may still be out on plant-based meat alternatives’ economic and
environmental viability, but experts largely agree that the seafood industry in
its current form is untenable. Overfishing presents countless ecological
problems, including plastic pollution and the potential for a wholesale
collapse of marine biodiversity. Researchers have been experimenting with
seafood alternatives for years, but one company is finally ready to bring its
offering to market—and it represents a major moment within the industry.

Austrian-based food-tech startup Revo Foods announced this week that its
3D-printed vegan fish filet “inspired by salmon” is heading to European grocery
store shelves—a first for 3D-printed food. According to the company’s September
12 press release, the arrival of “The Filet” represents a pivotal moment in
sustainable food, with 3D-printed consumables ready to scale at industrial
volumes. Revo Foods’ Filet is likely to be just the first of many other such
3D-printed edible products to soon hit the market."
