  The global pet food market size was valued at USD 99.1 billion in 2022 and is anticipated to exhibit a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.3% from 2023 [1] If we can synthesize a compound that makes cats want to eat any old byproducts, we will make a lot of money Morty. 1. https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/pet-food-industry https://www.grandviewresearch.com/industry-analysis/pet-food...

    Plus, as the article mentions, "more than 6% of all wild-caught fish goes into cat food." Reducing the demand for wild fish would be pretty helpful.

      Mostly skin, fin and heads though, so I doubt it'll impact how much we catch.

    Wow didn’t even consider this could result in the equivalent of MSG for cats. Thank you for bringing this to my attention.
