Show transcript
A mushroom is not a plant; it is a fungus.
Mushrooms are high in protein and are one of the most sustainable foods to grow and eat.
Mushrooms grow best in dark, moist conditions and continue to provide food over several weeks.
Mycoprotein is a sustainable protein made from fermented fungus.
Mycoprotein is made into 'meatless' foods such as burgers, mincemeat and 'chicken'.
