Per 100g: Calories, 149; saturated fat, 0.4g; protein, 19.3g; sugar, 3.1g; salt, 0.43g; fibre, 8.8g DESIGNED to replace beef mince in dishes such as chilli con carne, this does a good job of making them more hearthealt­hy as it’s only got a trace of saturated fat (0.5g in a 125g portion versus 5.6g in a typical mince). it’s also a good source of fibre with more than a third of your daily recommenda­tion per serving. As with most plant proteins, this soya-based mince won’t provide iron, zinc or vitamin B12 — but using it in a bean- based chilli will boost this.

TASTE: More mushy than real mince but great in bolognese sauce or chilli.
