40% of Chinese consumers are actively reducing meat consumption.

The study, published in the Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, surveyed 1,206 consumers and found that 40 percent of respondents were actively reducing their meat consumption (though only 2.7 percent were vegetarians).

However, 60% said they had tried plant-based meat products, and half of those consumers were willing to buy again.

Emulsified Soy Protein Isolate: An Innovative Force in the Food Industry

图片
Emulsified soy protein isolate represents an innovative achievement in the field of soy protein isolates. It starts with high-quality soybeans and undergoes multiple meticulous purification processes to remove non-protein components such as fats and carbohydrates from the soybeans, resulting in an extremely pure soy protein. The finished product appears as a fine powder with uniform color and an exceptionally high protein content, typically exceeding 90%, far surpassing that of ordinary soy protein products. In terms of advantages, emulsified soy protein isolate boasts superior emulsification stability, rapidly forming a stable emulsion in oil-water systems and preventing oil droplet aggregation and layering. In baked goods, it effectively emulsifies fats, ensuring uniform internal structure, soft texture, and extended shelf life for products like bread and cakes. Its outstanding nutritional enhancement effect is also remarkable. As a high-quality plant protein, it is rich in essential...

The price of plant-based foods is influenced by the price of me

The competition in the plant-based food industry is far more than just about taste, texture, or marketing. Price is the core factor that determines whether it can truly break through. Although plant-based meat products have achieved price parity in some markets in recent years, and have even been briefly cheaper than traditional meat, on the whole, consumers still tend to choose animal meat with a lower price. And this price advantage does not only come from breeding efficiency, but is the result of long-term shaping by government subsidies and the market system. Why is the price of meat so low? In supermarkets, consumers may not be aware that the market prices of the beef, pork, and chicken they buy often do not truly reflect the production costs. Arild Skedsmo, a senior analyst at KLP, pointed out that the environmental impact of the meat industry has not really been factored into the price. More importantly, globally, the meat industry is often supported by government subsidies to e...

Hydrolyzed Soy Protein Liquid: The Transformation from Soybeans to a "Universal" Essence

图片
Hydrolyzed soy protein liquid (HVP) is a functional product made from soy protein through a hydrolysis process. Its production process is rather complex.  First, high-quality soybeans are selected and undergo a series of pretreatment steps, such as screening and washing, to remove impurities. Then, defatting is carried out, often using physical pressing or organic solvent extraction to obtain soybean meal with a higher protein content. Next, the crucial hydrolysis step comes into play, with three main methods: acid hydrolysis, alkaline hydrolysis, and enzymatic hydrolysis. Although acid and alkaline hydrolysis are relatively simple to operate, they have harsh reaction conditions, are prone to environmental pollution, and can destroy some amino acids, affecting product quality. Enzymatic hydrolysis, with its mild reaction conditions, easy control of hydrolysis degree, and minimal amino acid damage, has become the mainstream method. In enzymatic hydrolysis, appropriate proteases, suc...
