In this final episode of our Grow-NY series, Shelling Peas host Chef Ryan Jennings of Sweet Pea Plant Based Kitchen sits down with Dr. Tali Feldman Sivan of Meala Food Tech. They discuss Meala’s innovative technology, which transforms plant-based foods by using clean-label, functional proteins to replace artificial binders and additives traditionally used for texture and consistency. The conversation addresses the challenges artificial additives present in processed foods, and explores the wide-ranging applications of Meala’s technology in products from plant-based meats to ice creams, sauces, and more. Dr. Feldman Sivan also shares how being a Grow-NY finalist is accelerating Meala’s journey to expand in the U.S. and beyond.
