MyForest Foods: Funding, Investors & Team (Sep 2026)

Nature holds the key to solving the world's biggest problems, and one of its valuable resources is the intricate root system of fungi known as mycelium. We have extensively studied and found inspiration in mycelium, discovering its versatility in various applications such as textiles, building materials, packaging alternatives, and even food. Guided by the wisdom of the forest, our company, MyForest Foods, has harnessed the potential of mycelium to create meatless food options that are both sustainable and satisfying. Our mycelium is cultivated, not ground, resulting in a texture that closely resembles whole cuts of meat. Our flagship product, MyBacon, is the first in a line of plant-based, clean-label foods that utilize mycelium growth. MyBacon is made from mycelium, which is a complete protein with a naturally high nutritional value, giving it its remarkable texture. To enhance the flavor, our chefs delicately brine each strip with a minimal blend of ingredients such as flaked salt, cane sugar, natural flavors, and beet juice for color. A dash of coconut oil provides the perfect sizzle, creating a bacon alternative that captures the familiar taste and texture of traditional bacon. Having established a sustainable source of these delicious eats, our mission is to share this discovery with the world and tap into mycelium's potential to feed the future, one delectable bite at a time.
