Meat alternatives: Nutrition Facts and Calories
This category includes a wide range of plant-based foods designed to replace meat. You'll find products made from soya, mycoprotein, or vegetables, such as burgers, sausages, and 'chicken' pieces. These can be a good source of protein and fibre. When choosing, check the nutrition label for salt content. The NHS Eatwell Guide suggests adults should have no more than 6g of salt a day. Look at the ingredients list to see what the main components are. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few ingredients give you a good idea of what the product is made of. Some meat alternatives can be high in fat or salt, so comparing products using the information on the packaging can help you make informed choices. Consider how these products fit into a balanced diet, which includes a variety of fruits, vegetables, and whole grains. All values are shown per 100 g so products can be compared.
