THIS combines pea protein and olive-oil based fat for new meat alternative
THIS is launching a new caramelised onion sausage with Tesco on the 4th April.
The ‘Isn’t Pork Caramelised Onion Sausages' (£2.95, 230g)’ use pea protein and vegetable fibres to create a ‘hyper-realistic, delicious’ meat alternative. The business has also used its newly created Fat 2.0 ingredient in the new product. The patent-pending, olive-oil based fat helps create the same succulence and bite of meat but without the down sides. The result is a sausage that is high in protein, a good source of fibre and contains 75% less sat fat than the average pork equivalent. It also uses a red onion chutney base and real red onion chunks to create a depth of flavour and texture, comparable to its meat equivalent.
Andy Shovel, Co-Founder of THIS said: “There's a clear demand for high quality, hyper-realistic plant-based sausages. The fact that our THIS™ Isn't Pork Sausages have already become one of our best-sellers in such a short time is testament to that. This new edition tastes lush and is another great showcase of our Fat 2.0 innovation.”
