Ladies and Gentlemen:
This letter is sent on behalf
of Above Food Ingredients Inc. (the “Company”) in response to the comment of the Staff (the “Staff”)
of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) communicated in its letter dated March 22,
2024 (the “Comment Letter”) regarding the above-referenced filing.
Please note that the Company
today filed with the Commission Amendment No. 3 to the Registration Statement on Form F-4 (the “Registration Statement”)
reflecting, among other things, the revisions set forth below.
For ease of reference, the
heading and number of the Company’s response set forth below corresponds to the heading and number in the Comment Letter, and we
have set forth below, in italics, the text of the Staff’s comment prior to the Company’s response.
Amendment No. 2 to Registration Statement
on Form F-4
Comparative Share Information, page 169
1.
We note your response to prior comment 7 and the revisions to your filing. Please be advised, the historical periods presented for Bite and Above Food should correspond to the periods of Bite and Above Food's historical financial statements included in the pro forma financial statements. In regard, it is not clear why you provided historical information for Bite for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 rather than for the year ended December 31, 2022 or why you provided historical information for Above Food for the nine months ended January 31, 2023 rather than for the year ended January 31, 2023. It is also not clear why the information is presented in US dollars rather than in Canadian dollars, the reporting currency of the registrant and its predecessor. Please clarify or revise.
