Unscramble the Blue Letters

The first prototypes were none of those things. But after many thodusnas of ineotatris, we have a material, and we call it Mylo. And Mylo does everything we set out for it. It's baufietul, it's fuontniacl, but most importantly, it's sustainable. So when you grow mushrooms, it takes about a little under one square meter of land to grow one kilogram of mushrooms. Contrast that to cows -- tkaes about 97 square meters of land to grow one kilogram of cow. And when we're growing Mylo, we're doing this in high-density vertical agriculture, and we power it with 100 percent renewable energy.
