  1. Mycoprotein is made using a fungus called Fusarium.
    It is grown in a fermenter where it is fed glucose syrup for energy.
    The fungus grows in aerobic conditions, meaning oxygen is supplied.
    Once enough fungus has grown, the mycoprotein is harvested and purified to make it safe to eat.
