Plant-based vs real meat: indistinguishable? We put new research to the test

Alternative meat products are close enough in taste and texture to their animal-based counterparts as to be indistinguishable, according to new research.
Nuggets in particular are singled out as a product that is virtually the same whether made from real chicken or alternatives.
But is this really true? Impact Loop puts these results to the test.

The biggest barrier to wider adoption of plant-based and alternative meat products has long been taste – but that hurdle may soon be a thing of the past. So suggests a new report from Nectar, an American research house specialising in plant-based alternative proteins.
According to their ‘sensory research,’ plant-based nuggets have approached animal-based so much in taste as to be virtually indistinguishable.
