High quality meat-like products - from niche markets to widely accepted meat alternatives (LikeMeat)

Start date: Nov 1, 2010, End date: Feb 28, 2013,

Several environmental and health-promoting issues substantiate the shift from an animal protein – in particular meat – to a vegetable protein based diet. Although meat analogues have attracted increasing industry and consumer attention, the market for these products is still very small. This is probably due to the fact that commercial available meat analogues - in particular their sensory qualitie ...
