         Tyson Foods and New Wave Foods to Releases Artificial Shrimp in January 2021

Tyson Foods, the world’s second largest marketer of chicken, has invested in New Wave Foods, which is launching a plant-based shrimp product into the national USA market in January 2021!

Shrimp News: In March 2018, before the Tyson investment, I tasted some of New Wave’s imitation shrimp at a restaurant in Palo Alto, California.  Hopefully, the product has been improved since then because what I tasted was not very good.
