the random item of the day!!!

i guess those are more like styrofoam peanuts, and these more popcorn-like ..

[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif][size=+1]VEAT FILLET[/size][/font] [font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Our VEAT Fillet, colored naturally with carrot extract and wrapped in seaweed, is a delightful alternative to salmon.[/font] [font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]The VEAT Fillet is made from the following all natural ingredients:[/font] [font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Ingredients:[/font] [font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Texturized soy protein (soy protein, wheat protein, starch, water), whey protein, vegetable oil (expeller pressed), wheat protein, soy flour, soy sauce, (water, soybeans, wheat, and salt), nori (seaweed), carrot extract (for coloring), unrefined evaporated cane juice, ginger, spices, yeast, sea salt.[/font]
 
perhaps its the seaweed they reference to


"Veat is the first and only meatless product which genuinely simulates the texture of meat and chicken-- to a surprising degree."

eww.. perhaps its not so appetizing now, if its not so different from meat
 
[font=Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif]Q: How do you get this texture?
A: The technology used to produce Veat is a new and totally unique extrusion process: "Variable-parameter Extrusion Agglutination Technology" -- V.E.A.T. It consists of a twin-shaft micro-extrusion process in which a very specific combination of parameters are brought together: a particular screw geometry and a very specific application of variable temperature and pressure throughout the extrusion process.

All of these factors are finely tuned to enable the extrusion of a precise blend of soy protein and other ingredients into agglutinated, stable soy fibers. Depending on the desired texture (e.g. pork, chicken, etc.) the precise parameters can be varied to produce fibers of different lengths, calibers, and other desired properties, which are the secret to simulating the sinewy texture of the muscle fibers comprising meat.

These soy fibers then undergo a special texturizing process, after which they are seasoned and cooked in a unique process, resulting in a finished product which is practically indistinguishiable in flavor, appearance, and texture to meat. [/font]​
...... hmmm....... :guh:
 
me too.

they should go into that detail for regular meat as well.

The technology used to produce meat is the traditional killing process: "Make 'Em All Tasty" --- . It consists of a twin-shaft brutal killing process in which a not so specific combination of parameters are brought together: a rusty chainsaw and a series of grated floors which aid in the grinding process.
