In a recent study, 49% of respondents reported having tried meat analogue products (Consumer Research: Plant Alternatives to meat)<\/a>. Between 32% and 74% of consumers eat them at least monthly (Innova Insights – 2019). Some researchers predict that two of the main types of meat replacements – plant-based meat analogues and cultured meat – will be the main sources of proteins in global diets by 2040<\/em> (Les Echos, d\u2019apr\u00e8s A.T.

With vegetarianism, veganism and flexitarianism on the rise, meat-free diets are becoming a positive consumer choice.
\nMeat analogues can be a gateway to a healthier lifestyle of reduced meat consumption. It allows consumers to substitute meat on their plate occasionally, rather than changing their eating habits completely.<\/a><\/p>\n

Today, the opportunity for innovation in the meat analogue space is enormous. Manufacturers who are able to find great tasting, high nutritional quality ingredients are building the legacy brands and products of the future<\/strong><\/p>\n

Unsurprisingly, the most significant barrier to building a mainstream audience continues to be taste<\/a>. 68% of consumers say taste and flavor<\/strong><\/span> are the most important factor they consider when choosing meat analogues (Mintel, 2018). In fact, a majority of consumers believe that plant-based alternatives should taste like meat. (Mintel, Plant-based proteins, May 2019)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Alternative high-protein sources, from the well-known (soy) to newcomers (algae) are often introducing off-flavors and colors that can be difficult to manage when creating innovative products. Thus, formulators can find it challenging to create delicious products to tempt this growing market.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So, how can food developers create meat analogues that respond to consumer expectations about texture, nutritional content and – most importantly – delicious taste? The secret lies in Biospringer\u2019s area of expertise: yeast and yeast-derived ingredients.<\/p>\n
