Climate-hero kelp
According to the WGSN Food & Drink social media influencer map, 'kelp' is the top ingredient associated with 'regenerative agriculture’. A fast-growing seaweed with versatile applications and an excellent nutritional profile, kelp is also a sustainability superfood that permanently removes carbon dioxide from the environment.
“Kelp is a real superfood, both environmentally and nutritionally," Jennifer Creevy, Head of Food & Drink at WGSN told FoodNavigator.
"While it has been used in some regions for some time, it is now gaining traction globally as a versatile ingredient and one of a roster of growing climate-hero ingredients. We’re seeing innovations including kelp burgers, noodles and popcorn, and there’s much more to come.”
