Revo Foods Announces “THE KRAKEN”, the World’s First Plant-Based Octopus

Austrian startup Revo Foods has unveiled a groundbreaking innovation: “THE KRAKEN – Inspired by Octopus,” the world’s first plant-based alternative to octopus tentacles. Crafted from fungi protein using a new 3D structuring approach, this revolutionary product promises to deliver an authentic taste, texture, and scent akin to traditional octopus dishes.

The decision to develop a plant-based octopus alternative stems from a desire to offer sustainable options without compromising on taste or texture. CEO Robin Simsa explains, “It is a very interesting product for which no plant-based alternative exists yet [we checked and found one obscure product available which does not appear to offer realistic properties], and has a very unique texture and structure. Also, it is a specialty in many countries, but an increasing amount of people are aware of the high intelligence and social behavior of these animals, therefore providing a suitable alternative is important.” Additionally, “THE KRAKEN” offers a Nutriscore A nutritional profile, boasting high levels of omega-3 fatty acids and fiber. Whether grilled, fried, baked, or enjoyed straight out of the package, this mycoprotein-based creation promises to satisfy even the most discerning palates.

“THE KRAKEN” is the latest addition to Revo Foods’ lineup of innovative plant-based seafood products. Following the success of its crowdfunding campaign and recent legal victory over labeling disputes, the company continues to lead the charge in sustainable food innovation. With a team of 35 dedicated scientists and engineers, Revo Foods is on a mission to revolutionize the food industry one plant-based product at a time.

While initially available exclusively through the Revo online shop, “THE KRAKEN” is set to make waves across Europe, delivering to over a dozen countries. From Austria to Sweden, seafood enthusiasts can now experience the taste of the ocean without harming marine life.
