Textured Vegetable Protein Chunks, 1 lb. Review

I love these TVP chunks as a veggie substitute in recipes that call for chicken. It is great in "chicken" curries, casserole, and creamy soups and stews. Although TVP is normally really boring, these chunks have a great texture and seems to have a really good taste in sauce-rich recipes. They are slightly more chewy than minced TVP, which makes your recipe more interesting. My meat-eating friends don't seem to spot that this is veggie food, so I suppose that is a plus for entertaining ... :-)
These chunks reconstitute really quickly (about 10 minutes) in water or cooking sauce. So this is a very easy ingredient to use. The chunks provide good value and a tasty addition for veggie cooking.

This is s tasty product sold at a moderate price.But it contains trans fat,hydogenated oils and high levels of sodium. It has three percent total fat and no cholesterol .It is also manufactured on equipment that was used to process eggs,tree nuts and peanuts.It is flavored with "natural flavorings" which is a little uninformative for people trying to follow a vegan or vegetarian diet.It comes in a very sturdy container that has a shelf life of over twenty years.No where on the container was there any information whether or not this was a vegan or vegetarian product.Nor was there any information on whether or not genetically modified soy beans were used.I love the taste of this product and would continue to use it if not for the transfats and doubts on whether it is a vegan product.It is great with rice or pasta.It would make an excellent emergency or survival food for an omnivore .

I was quite disappointed with this product. The company shipped it promptly and I could hardly wait to try it out. I have tried it in gravy and soup and neither has made me think remotely of chicken. I have cooked with plain TVP in granules and larger chunks before so I knew I would not be getting "chicken" but the chewiness of larger TVP chunks was missing in these smaller bits and I felt the flavor did not enhance the foods it was added to.
There are trans fats in it, also, making it not a healthy option for vegetarian eating, either.
The chickeny flavor of this product reminds me of the flavor of crackers that claim to be chicken flavored. If you like those you might like this.
