The Quorn products made me very sick. I thought they were soy, until I read the

sold (largely in Europe, but also in other parts of the world) as a health food

and an alternative to meat,   uses egg white as a binder.

Introduced in the US in 2002

Center for Science in the Public Interest briefly expressed concerns over the

product. [2]

such as cubes and a form

resembling minced meat;

and later introduced a range of chilled

vegetarian meals, including pizzas, lasagna, cottage pie,

and products

resembling sliced meat, hot dogs, and burgers.
