Lab-Grown Salmon Hits the Menu at an Oregon Restaurant as the FDA Greenlights the Cell-Cultured Product
- In early June 2025, Wildtype introduced its FDA-approved cultivated salmon to diners in Portland, Oregon, starting with the menu of a James Beard Award-winning Haitian eatery led by chef Gregory Gourdet.
- This launch follows Wildtype's recent regulatory milestone where the FDA found no safety concerns after a pre-market consultation for their cell-cultivated salmon product.
- Wildtype's salmon, called "saku," is grown from Pacific salmon cells in environments simulating wild habitats and is best served sashimi-style, with plans to expand to four more restaurants.
- Dr. Suzi Gerber called Wildtype's achievement a "watershed moment" for domestic seafood and cultivated protein, highlighting potential environmental and public health benefits.
- The introduction of lab-grown salmon suggests growing acceptance of sustainable foods, while some states like Florida banned lab-grown meat citing political opposition.
