CONSIDER THE EEL

Summary from the TLDR newsletter

Forsea Foods is an Israeli startup focused on growing eel meat in the lab. The company believes that starting with a premium offering makes the most sense due to the high costs of production. The price of eel meat is set to rise as the global population is cratering - the European eel population has fallen by 98% since 1980. Forsea's technology allows it to grow different types of cells in a single bioreactor, cutting down on both production time and costs. It plans to launch its product commercially starting in Japan in 2026.
