Coming soon: vegetarian chicken that tastes just like chicken!

[canny surya]

Scientists at the University of Missouri may have finally cracked the code to realistic tasting fake chicken with the first soy product.

Lots of meat substitutes are on the market right now, such as the ever-popular Tofurky. But there isn't one that tastes like chicken or, more importantly to these researchers, has the texture of real meat.

Fu-Hung Hsieh, a professor of biological engineering and food science at MU, and colleagues have now created the first soy product that can be flavoured to taste like chicken, but also breaks apart in your mouth the way chicken does.

The fake meat is made by mixing up a batter of soy protein, wheat flour and water, and then pushing the batter through a high-heat extruder.

Hsieh said that the mixture firms up and develops a stringy, chicken-like texture.

Although the team hasn't perfected the taste yet, the texture seems to be right on.

"But the way the meat broke across my teeth felt exactly how boneless chicken breast does," Discovery News quoted Time Magazine's John Cloud, who visited the laboratory where the soy-chicken is being made, as saying.

"It was slightly fibrous but not fatty. The soy wasn't mashed together as in a veggie burger; rather, it was more idiosyncratic, uneven, al dente-in other words, meatlike," he added.

The research has been published in the Journal of Food and Agricultural Chemistry, Journal of Food Science, and Journal of the American Oil Chemists' Society. ^^" ^^" ^^"

neeku us FOOD industry meeda peddaga Idea ledu mama . Agro Industry is so fucked in USA due to lot of private investment by big MNC who want only money

crops like corn and soyabean are heavily subsidized in USA , farmers know that it is not profitable to grow this crop but still they grow because govt takes care of them . govt funds many land grant Univ to Invent products who can utilize these crops.

so they created these products from corn most of them have a track record of potential harm for human body

corn they feed for cattle (excess of corn in US)
High fructose corn syrup (used as a sugar  substitute  )
corn ethanol substitute to petroleum (it creates more pollutants while production of corn than using petroleum )

the list goes on

the main concept is that they need to use all the over produced  crops  so they all invent some alternate use to this crops --

FDA - The agency which takes care about food products regulations is heavily criticized for its   bending rules for big corporations because most of the FDA and other regulatory officials are previous employees of the big food corporations.
