Some Oregon seaweed tastes like bacon
(JULY 26, 2019) Some people like bacon. Bacon is meat from a pig.
Some people like seaweed. Seaweed is a plant from the ocean.
But one seaweed tastes like bacon!
The red seaweed is called dulse. It tastes salty and sweet. It is a healthy sea vegetable.
A business in Oregon wants to grow the plant. They want to sell it for food. But it is expensive to grow.
