California Cultured Featured in a Technology-Themed Article in The Atlantic Regarding Lab-Manufactured Chocolate
VANCOUVER, BC, March 24, 2022 /CNW/ - CULT Food Science Corp. ("CULT" or the "Company") (CSE: CULT) (OTC: CULTF) (FRA: LN0), an innovative investment platform with an exclusive focus on cellular agriculture that is advancing the development of novel technologies to provide a sustainable, environmental, and ethical solution to the global factory farming and aquaculture crises, is pleased to announce that its portfolio company, California Cultured, was recently featured in an article (the "Article") published by The Atlantic Magazine (the "Atlantic"). The Article, "Silicon Valley Is Coming for Your Chocolate: One day, the cocoa in beloved treats might come from a petri dish", addressed the evolving food industry and the transformation of the production of cocoa and chocolate items in which California Cultured is playing a leading role. The Article can be viewed via the following link: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2022/02/lab-made-chocolate-silicon-valley/622888/
In the Article, the author, Larissa Zimberoff, discussed the evolution of food production including the large food industry category of cocoa. She also confirmed having tried some of the product that California Cultured designs in its lab in Davis, California and described it favourably as being "creamy and sweet". California Cultured is focused on creating chocolate products that are identical in taste, texture, and smell to current chocolate products that originate from the world's controversial cocoa farms. CULT's portfolio company is working to encourage and create a more sustainable food industry and is optimistic that the exposure gained from the Article will help propel its initiative forward.
Overall, California Cultured is being driven to educate consumers around the world about the danger of continuing to produce cocoa in a traditional manner. Cocoa farming is leading to mass deforestation and the industry's current structure exploits cocoa farmers and encourages child slave labour. CULT and California Cultured are strongly aligned in the conviction that cellular agriculture is the way of the future for much of the world's food production that is unkind to humans, land and the environment. CULT completed a strategic investment in California Cultured earlier this year as part of its global vision to improve access to the future of foods.
Management Commentary
"Having CULT's portfolio company, California Cultured, be recognized in The Atlantic and having readers engage in its mission is incredible validation for the venture and for a future where food will be made without the need to harm animals, people or land. We are encouraged by California Cultured and its tenacity to make a difference. We believe that cell-based foods have the capacity to change the world in a variety of ways and CULT is hopeful that a piece like this in The Atlantic will go a long way toward shifting the perception of cell-based foods and increase the understanding of cellular agriculture, globally," said Lejjy Gafour, President of CULT.
