Podcast: Inside Biotech
An important aspect of what makes food buyable and sellable, food dyes are the underrated artists of the food industry, making your tomato sauce bright red and your sports drink enticingly blue. Imagining a world where these dyes are not only aesthetic but nutritional, Elliot Roth uses spirulina, a beautifully colored super food, to do just that with his company Spira Inc.
