New Seaweed Tastes Like Bacon?!

An algae that tastes like bacon, has high nutritional value AND is a source of protein? Sounds like the stuff of science fiction but it’s real – it’s dulse. Professor Chuck Toombs has been working with scientists at Oregon State University (OSU) to engineer and harvest a unique variety of dulse that, when fried, tastes just like the fatty, delicious meat but with greater health benefits. “Dulse is a super food, with twice the nutritional value of kale,” Toombs said in a statement . “And OSU has developed a variety that can be farmed, with the potential for a new industry on the Oregon coast”/ IFL Science .

Question: If dulse really tastes like bacon when friend, would you buy some?
