Textured Vegetable Protein TVP 1LB - Unflavored Soy Meat Substitute Vegan | High protein plant based chunks for tacos, chili, burgers, bolognese & stir fry. Cholesterol free. Bulk resealable bag.

I've tried several brands of textured vegetable protein over the years, and most of them end up as mushy, sad little flakes that dissolve into whatever sauce I'm cooking. This one is completely different. The larger chunk size is an absolute game-changer—they maintain a satisfying, chewy, meaty texture that holds up beautifully in everything from chili to tacos to pasta sauce. It actually feels like I'm eating something substantial, not just filler. The fact that it's unflavored is a huge plus because it's a blank canvas. These crumbles soak up whatever you cook them in like a sponge. A good beef-style broth, some smoked paprika, or even just a rich marinara sauce, and they transform into something genuinely delicious. I've fooled meat-eaters with these more than once. Plus, knowing they're non-GMO and gluten-free gives me peace of mind. If you've been disappointed by other TVP brands, do yourself a favor and try this one. The texture is perfect, the larger chunks are versatile, and it's become a pantry staple in my kitchen. I honestly can't recommend it enough for anyone looking for a high-quality, plant-based meat substitute.

When things happened with lock down, I made sure to purchase a whole bunch of freeze dried goodies as well as dehydrated vegan protein "meat". These things came in handy and I absolutely loved them for that reason. They cook out really quick. I didn't rehydrate them at all, I just threw them into whatever sauce I was cooking or gravy and they soaked the flavor right up and made everything a lot simpler. Over rice, with potatoes (cubed or mashed), as sauteed chicken over ceasar salad. The price is pretty good and the ingredients are similar to that of taking vitamins honestly. I don't know about the variety, cause I only get the chicken one and the sixe is pretty good, cause you don't need to use a lot.

This was very good tvp. The flavor was mild like soy curls, basically flavorless, which I prefer to flavored brands of tvp. I especially like the size of these -- small enough to be used as a ground beef substitute in chili, but still big enough to sub for satisfying chicken bits in chick'n veggie soup, without being large strips or chunks like soy curls. Not the most affordable tvp, which is why I gave only 4 stars. Until I can find a cheaper alternative, I'll be using these regularly.

Good, quality TVP and the size of the chunks are great. There are some small ones in there, but overall they're nice big chunks instead of flakes. Just perfect for adding to stews and for making vegan chili. Will make this a regular purchase!

Good meat alternative, so easy to use and store. I make a lot of soups and chilis although i'm not a vegetarian i am trying to cut back on red meat and well meat period. This really mixes, and imitates ground beef, or any type of meat really well. It soaks up the flavor in the recipe and looks like meat.

Very good. Great for salads, 'chicken' salad, stews, meatless sauces, and soups.

Good quality tvp, larger crumbles than I'd like but I just put them through the food processor after I've rehydrated them. The reason for the mid review is that the package was under the package weight by 50g, even though it was absolutely packed to the brim, which means all bags are likely under the stated weight.

Vraiment plus petit que je pensais. Je ne suis pas familière avec ce type de protéines bien que je suis végétarienne depuis 12 ans. Je vais davantage explorer les façons possibles de cuisiner! Cependant, je trouve cela tout de même très cher pour la quantité.

Disappointed...crumbs, not chunks; no instructions on bag nor website. I'll prepare the way I do with my soy curls. Won't buy again.
