Kiwi company Leaft Foods has made Time Magazine's top 300 inventions of 2026 for its protein drink made from lucerne leaves. 

The company developed a way to extract the protein Rubisco commercially, and demand is already outstripping supply. 

Ross Milne CEO of Leaft Foods told Mike Hosking the accomplishment had taken six years of work and investment. 

He says the company figured out how to extract the protein first and is now leading in the field.
