I’m very intrigued by meati and mycoprotein. I’ve been following this company’s story for a couple of years now so I was pretty excited to try the very first drop of the product! They are making alt protein in fermentation tanks with mycelium - pretty cool, right? I ordered the meati cutlet, which came frozen in a pack of four. It was very easy to cook and browned just like chicken. The pull-away texture of the product is very impressive as it really resembles a chicken breast. On my first bite, I was super impressed. However, as I kept chewing, it was a touch more chewy/rubbery than I would like and there was a bit of a flavor that I didn’t love. Overall, it’s worth a shot! I think they might be onto something and look forward to seeing their next versions of the product and where a little more food science will take them!

I am looking forward to future iterations of the product as I think there is some sensory work they could do to improve the chewing texture and flavor.
