🧑🚀 Astronauts are set to enjoy high-tech snacks created in Lithuania! Super Garden has won a contest hosted by the European Space Agency - ESA, to create nutritious and tasty snacks for the crew of the International Space Station. The Lithuanian brand uses freeze-drying technology to create innovative snacks – including freeze-dried ice cream that doesn't melt, exported worldwide. To launch its vibrant flavours into orbit, the company faces a unique challenge: in space, astronauts' taste buds become less sensitive. To satisfy their cravings, Super Garden has planned a flavour-packed menu of freeze-dried foods from astronauts' native countries. Congratulations to Super Garden on taking Lithuanian innovation to a new (and tasty) frontier! 🚀
