Algae Cooking Club Launches Nationally in Sprouts Farmers Market

This year’s buzziest new cooking ingredient, microalgae, makes its national grocery debut this month. This October, Algae Cooking Club rolls out its chef-grade cooking oil at all 400+ Sprouts locations in both the Innovation and standard grocery aisles. Algae Cooking Club’s rapid expansion is a testament to consumers' growing interest in new, healthier culinary oils that don’t sacrifice deliciousness and ask less of the planet. 

“Sprouts is a dream national natural retailer partner; not only will we be in the innovation aisle but also the oil and vinegar aisle,” said Kasra Saidi, co-founder of Algae Cooking Club. “Our partnership with them comes as the search for healthier oils has reached an all-time high, just as food curiosity peaks. If there has ever been a time for algae to make its national debut, it’s now.” 

Algae Cooking Club launched just six months ago, debuting its chef-grade algae cooking oil. It answers many wants and needs for today’s home cook; a clean and versatile neutral oil that amplifies flavors and textures, is verified seed oil free, and has the highest smoke point and highest composition of good monounsaturated fats compared to other go-to cooking oils. 

Quickly gaining traction since its launch earlier this year, Algae Cooking Club has become beloved by at-home cooks and some of the world’s best chefs, including Daniel Humm of Eleven Madison Park. Due to increasing consumer demand, and its innovative fermentation process, in less than six months the brand has been able to lower its retail price, making the culinary magic of microalgae more accessible to consumers. The brand also plans to debut savory, infused oils that pack a flavorful punch later this year.

Shoppers can find Algae Cooking Club at Sprouts Farmers Market locations in California, Arizona, Texas and Colorado. For more information about Algae Cooking Club and its chef-grade cooking oil, visit AlgaeCookingClub.com or follow @algaecookingclub.
