Meat replacement

An example of a meat replacement is a food made from microprotein – a substance made from fungi. It is a meat free product which is low in fat, high in protein and contains no cholesterol. It is a popular choice for vegetarians as it is an effective meat replacement due its protein content – as well as being available in meat-style products such as burgers and sausages. Being high in dietary fibre, full of amino acids and low in calories it is a healthy and versatile food option.
