Here in Oregon we're farming Dulse and it seems to be taking off: https://www.oregonseaweed.com/

Apparently when prepared right it tastes like bacon.

I love all sorts of green things and gave up on meat a while ago but seaweed with a taste of bacon sounds amazing.

I happened upon that seaweed farm in Garibaldi last fall when we were over on the coast. Bought a bag of it directly from the tank. It didn't exactly taste like bacon, but it was an umami bomb. If I lived over there I'd probably eat it pretty regularly.

I buy it dried and use it as a bacon substitute. I'm paying way too much for what I wish I could harvest.
