[ 01 ]About

Lasso is a food technology company building new ways to create structured protein foods using nature-inspired processes. Lasso develops scalable technologies that unlock new textures, formats, and possibilities for protein. By working at the ingredient and process level, Lasso enables food companies to make products that taste better, perform better, and are more efficient to produce. Creating structure in protein is one of the hardest problems in food. Many proteins have strong nutritional value but limited functionality when it comes to texture, alignment, and bite. Lasso has developed proprietary technologies that organize proteins into aligned, fibrous structures using a sustainable and scalable approach. These technologies can be applied across a wide range of protein sources and end applications, giving partners new tools to design differentiated foods without over-processing or unnecessary complexity. Lasso’s platform helps modernize how protein foods are made and opens the door to a new generation of high-quality, structured protein products.
