Landish Unveils Five-Plant Protein Powder Featuring Plantible Foods’s Rubisco

Canadian wellness brand Landish has launched a new protein powder that combines Plantible Foods’s Rubisco ingredient, derived from duckweed, with four other plant-based proteins. The product offers 20g of complete protein per 24g scoop, with Rubisco boasting a 70% nutritional yield. Landish describes the duckweed protein as having a clean, neutral taste that adds a naturally silky, frothy texture to shakes and smoothies.

Plantible Foods recently secured $35M in funding to expand its manufacturing capacity fivefold, showcasing the growing interest in Rubisco protein. This protein is derived from lemna plants grown on controlled aquafarms with a minimal water footprint. The company also produces Rubi Whisk for baked goods and Lemna Leaf Greens powder for other applications. Rubisco’s expanding influence in the protein world is evident through collaborations with other brands in various products, reflecting a shift away from traditional sources like whey and eggs.
