I can't prove nonexistence, but the ones I've had are not very close. Beyond apparently tried in the early '10s but the product was not well reviewed. They just released a new type of tender that is apparently much better. Nonetheless, the fact that even companies that are dedicated to making high fidelity plant-based meat replicas have failed before suggests this is not an easy problem.
- cassianoleal 5y agoAre you sure the problem was taste, as opposed to other characteristics, like consistency, chewiness, how moist it is, etc? There are confounding factors. This thread is about taste / flavour alone.
- asdfasgasdgasdg 5y agoThis thread is not just about taste. That was the word used in one of the comments, but in the video in question, the reporter said she "wouldn't know the difference." The operative question here is the development of a workable substitute for chicken meat, not the ability to isolate its flavor. My only contention is that this is not trivial, the way the first respondent claimed it was.
- cassianoleal 5y ago> This thread is not just about taste. Wrong. The thread that started with my comment was specifically responding to "it tastes just like a real thing". > That was the word used in one of the comments, but in the video in question, the reporter said she "wouldn't know the difference." Fair point. I didn't watch the video (unfortunately I can't at the moment), so I was responding specifically to the parent comment. That's on me.
