    Climax Blue is available NOW! We’re incredibly excited to announce the launch of our plant-based blue cheese in the Good Eggs marketplace. 🧀✨ A week ago, Bay Area residents were given the opportunity to enjoy our bold and delicious plant-based alternative to traditional blue cheese by simply adding a wedge (or a few!) to their Good Eggs order and having it delivered right to their door. Turns out, enough folks wanted to try Climax Blue that we sold out within a few days. Today, we are officially restocked and wanted to let you know! Here's where you can order: https://lnkd.in/gFk8pxar We’ve been working tirelessly on crafting a worthy alternative to dairy blue cheese and are beyond excited to share Climax blue with you. 💙 A little about Climax Blue: 🧀 Crafted by artisan chefs and innovative scientists 🧀 Rich, tangy flavor with a hint of blue mold, perfectly ripened for a satisfying taste experience  🧀 Made from clean, sustainable, non-GMO ingredients 🧀 Provides 15% protein 🧀 Free from major allergens Whether crumbled over salads, melted into sauces, or enjoyed on its own, Climax Blue Cheese brings the authentic essence of blue cheese to plant-based diets, guilt-free and delicious. Stay tuned for more updates on Climax Blue’s launch into retail. We’ve got some more things up our sleeve that will be announced very soon!

    So this happened last night! Stephens' crucial criterion for real blue cheese is "has to taste like 🦶". After poking fun of Jon Stewart and other vegans, he tasted our goods and begrudgingly admitted "tastes like 🦶"! Edit: Here's the full segment: https://lnkd.in/gQkBhHYh Thanks for singing the praises in your unique ways, and for that witty examination of the Good Food Award snafu, Stephen, you're the best 😂 #colbert #colbertreport #cheese #foodies #startups #futureoftradition #futureoffood #vegan #primaryprotein

    The most readily scalable AI Vertical addressing Climate Change is through Food - nothing else comes close in its potential to mitigate global warming, deforestation, wildlife loss, and water waste. Climax Foods' AI Platform has for the first time proven that it is possible to create zero-compromise sustainable products, starting with the dairy category. Last week, I had the pleasure of speaking about this exact subject at Columbia University at the “AI for Climate and Nature” event hosted by the Bezos Earth Fund, in an effort to build an ecosystem at the intersection of AI, Climate, and Nature, which culminated in the announcement of the $100 Million fund this week. Congrats Andy Jarvis, Lindsay Clinton, Amen Ra Mashariki, Andrew Steer, and the entire team. Now I’m thrilled that SF Climate Week is right around the corner! For the occasion, Climax Foods will be hosting a special gathering of minds showcasing our award winning products in our amazing labs in South Berkeley, 10 mins from SF.
