Pikilo Mushroom Protein in Finland with Simo Ellilä
Today we travel to Finland to take a history lesson on the foundations of fungal protein developed in 1963, having coined the name "Pikilo". Finnish researchers in the 60's were growing edible fungi on agricultural wastes and feeding livestock with it. Fast forward 60 years we chat with Simo Ellilä who started a company, Enifer, to use this same process for pets and humans too.
