About Meat Alternatives
Meat Alternatives are a meat-like substance made from vegetarian ingredients. This product has a similar flavour to animal-based items and a similar look to animal-based products. However, they are animal-free. This includes plant-based meats and meat substitutes. Soy, almond, algae, pea, wheat, rice, and other sources are used to make these goods, with soy protein being the most well-known. Plant-based meals have grown in popularity as a result of the growing vegan and vegetarian lifestyle. Growing awareness about sustainability, environment protection, malpractices during fishing like excessive fishing, exploitation of marine habitats, child labour, etc. have led to strong sense of shift away from meat especially in the youth. Although there less awareness in developing countries along with their highest costs compared to normal animal based meat products is restraining or limiting the growth to certain region in world. North America is the largest or dominant most market of meat alternatives.
