Animal welfare, the environment, health - there are many reasons to choose a vegan lifestyle. The fact that this diet is by no means one-sided, but has a lot to offer, is shown by our many vegan recipes. However, some people still miss the taste of meat or cheese. This is where vegan substitutes come in, providing plant-based alternatives for precisely these products. Vegan substitute products have recently fallen into disrepute. Among other things, because they often have to travel long distances and consume many resources. To achieve the meat-like consistency as well as a similar taste, many vegan alternatives are heavily processed and contain additives as well as a lot of sugar and salt.
Especially for people who choose the vegan lifestyle for health reasons, the latter is not exactly conducive. As is so often the case, this does not apply to all vegan substitutes. Our vegan patties for example, are free from additives and rich in protein and fibre.
If you want to buy vegan meat imitations in the supermarket, you should make sure that the list of ingredients is not too long and that no additives, flavours or flavour enhancers are used in the production process. In addition, it is best to choose products where the raw materials come from the local area and have not been transported long distances.
So if a vegan substitute is not chemically made to resemble the taste and texture of meat, it can be a great change of pace 😊
