Textured Vegetable Protein, Vegan Meat Substitute, 100% Hexane Free, Made with #1 Graded Yellow Soybeans, Plant Based, Made in USA, Gluten Free, Just Like Chicken, Unflavored (1 Package)

My friend made a dish I asked her “where did she get the meat from” she told me “from Amazon.” She showed me the one she purchased it was another brand I started to see other brands that was less expensive and more for your money after reading some reviews I decided to try this brand. I ordered this yesterday and it came 5am this morning. I followed the direction on rehydrating it and it turned out perfectly. I rehydrated it with some vegan chicken seasoning then sautéed it in a little olive oil vegetables then added some sweet and sour sauce and it came out fantastic. The texture is good although it has a somewhat little bean taste but overall I like it and will be buying again.

First I am not a Vegan, I eat fish and chicken. My Doctor put me on an vegan eating plan for heart reasons. I just made chicken tacos with this product using an air fryer. They were absolutely delicious. I wanted to add a photo but my carnivore family grabbed them and wanted more. They didn’t believe me it wasn’t real chicken.

Although I am not vegetarian, I am trying to eat less meat and ran across this product when doing a general search for meat substitutes. I like this product a lot and will order it again when I run out. It has a good texture and I use it in everything from slow cooker recipes to burritos and stir fry. It requires no special storage and the long shelf life is good for folks that cook for one person most of the time. My one caveat is that if you use this product, reconstitute it in broth with salt and pepper and whatever seasoning that is appropriate for what ever you are going to use it in because it is very, very bland. The upside to this is that in things like slow cooker dishes it takes on the flavors of the other ingredients.

My first attempt at making a General Tso vegetarian dish was fun and tasted great. Though I normally make my own sauces, I used the simply organic simmer sauce to keep it simple and less $$. After soaking 4 oz of the chips as directed, I tossed them in a nonstick pan with a little oil for browning, poured in half a pouch of sauce and served rice w/toasted sesame oil, broccoli, and walnuts. Delicious! I'd much prefer a compressed nugget shape for a firm chew, but knowing this brand is hexane-free is a relief.

This TVP is amazing. I’m sorry it took to so long to find it. I use it for all things chicken. Just today I made chicken pot pie. So delicious. Just Like Chicken is easy to reconstitute, flavor, cook, and eat in a short time. Great texture. I’ll buy again without question. Thanks for an easy to use tasty protein alternative.

Thank you for asking for an opinion. I will not use it. The texture is sponge like. I can understand their goal to want a texture, but it has airholes in it that makes it feel and look spongey vs solid.

last long in fridge

Like Tripe which is cow stomach. I don't really like chicken but this might mimic it's rubbery texture Also has too much sugar so rubbery sugar Get seitan for plant based meat or pea protein much better taste
