I've worked as a chef for 9 years in a UK pub trade. So not restaurant levels cheffing, I do that in my own time. But the point is as a chef, who can read the ingreidents on the "chickless goujons" I know it's literally made of preservatives, dust of peas, chickpeas,various starches like rice or straight up glucose syrup, E numbers and in most cases rust of titanium ie titanium oxide. It makes things glossy white like that glaze effect on a bakery bun.
Titanium Dioxide is a byproduct of heavy industry and for literally the one reason of being a whitening agent it is added to your food. Despite scientific papers showing it screws with the healthy bacteria in your gut. For this reason it's one of the few times you'll catch this Englishmen commending the French cos they banned it in food. More countries should follow suit. It's literally a case of trying to find a way of creating value from an industrial byproduct that would otherwise carry a cost of treatment and storage.
The meat free stuff is not good for you. Period. More so if you have IBS, Crohns Disease etc. It's also not good for the planet as claimed. You think meat bought from a local farmer is killing the planet? Nah, that's corporations trying to monopolise the food chain. Hard pass thank you. Support your local farmers where ever possible.
I'm a low wage earner but still pay slightly more than I need to buy milk from a regional farmm from a locally owned cornershop (proper old skool, Open All Hours style, they get what you ask for type thing) as opposed to cheaper big supermarket brand.
Anyway, foodie rant over.
