Vegetarian and Meat-Free Foods
Overview
Creating tastefully seasoned meat alternatives.

Vegetarian and meat-free foods have boomed over the last decade. Consumption of meat-free products has expanded beyond the highly specialized vegetarian market and has been adopted by the increasingly health conscious mainstream.

Manufacturers have a unique product development challenge to not only create meat alternatives for vegetarians, but to make them convincing enough to win over meat-eaters. Meat analogs should look, smell, taste and eat like meat products. It takes considerable effort to find the perfect balance of seasoning with meat-like texture and moisture release.

Kalsec® Seasoning SolutionsSM team is prepared to help you differentiate your product with seasonings that exceed your expectations for flavor and shelf life. Using our expertise in flavors, colors and oxidation management, we not only help your products taste and look good, we help them taste and look good longer!

Vegetarian foods can be segmented into two categories: meat alternatives and meat analogs. Meat alternatives, which are rice, oat, grain and vegetable based, target the vegetarian consumer and in no way resemble meat. Meat analogs are vegetable-protein based foods made to resemble and simulate various kinds of meat. These analogs have become a healthy alternative for the mainstream consumer interested in reducing the meat in their diets.
