Scientists have developed 3D Printed plant-based calamari for vegans.

Researchers are working harder to develop delicious and environmentally friendly substitutes for traditional seafood as worries about unsustainable fishing methods and their effects on the ecosystem continue to increase.

The effects of overfishing, together with concerns about contamination and ethical issues, have increased consumer demand for seafood substitutes that may both appease palates and protect the seas.

A team from the National University of Singapore has reportedly grabbed the lead, displaying their creative method for producing alluring vegan seafood that not only tastes great but also closely resembles the nutritional profile of genuine fish.

Futuristic Food: How 3D Printing is Revolutionizing Meals

A team of researchers at Edith Cowan University in Australia is exploring an innovative way to boost nutrition for vulnerable populations – using 3D printing technology to create nutrient-packed “meals” out of pureed fruits, vegetables, and other ingredients. Their goal is to find new solutions for groups like elderly nursing home residents, schoolchildren, and military personnel who often struggle to get adequate nutrition from traditional meals.
