Seaweed Food Solutions is awarded 3x gold by the professional jury at Slavakto.

What makes these sausages special?

The secret lies in their composition. These are not purely meat-based sausages but a hybrid blend featuring 57% to 64% meat. The remaining portion is replaced with seaweed, a sustainable ingredient that enhances both flavor and nutrition while significantly reducing the product's environmental impact.

Seaweed contributes a natural umami taste that perfectly complements the rich flavor of meat. It’s not just about taste—seaweed is a nutrient powerhouse, rich in protein and essential minerals, offering a wholesome alternative to traditional fillers.

Seaweed is a game-changer

Seaweed’s benefits go beyond its culinary attributes. Incorporating it into hybrid meats reduces the product’s carbon footprint, offering a more eco-friendly alternative to traditional meat products. As the food industry moves toward reducing environmental impact, innovations like this demonstrate how classic foods can evolve without compromising taste or quality.

The future of food

The recognition at Slavakto confirms that seaweed is not just a fleeting trend but a promising ingredient in sustainable food innovation. These hybrid sausages showcase how modern techniques and traditional craftsmanship can come together to create products that are delicious, nutritious, and environmentally conscious.

With seaweed-infused hybrid meats earning gold, the future of food innovation is looking greener—and tastier—than ever.
