Abstract
AbstractThe meat industry in the United States offers the biggest volume potential for vegetable protein. American Meat Institute reports a 1977 tonnage of 4,377,937,031 pounds of sausage products. Our research with various protein sources is discussed. Emphasis is placed on soy protein products currently available and approved by government agencies. Formulations and requirements for satisfactory products is outlined with economic justifications for soy flour, concentrates and isolates. A thorough discussion of extruded and/or engineered foods is presented showing utilization of mechanically deboned meats, recovered meat proteins from pork and beef rendering, and vegetable proteins in combination with beef and pork. The nutritive values of mechanically deboned chicken and structured soy protein gave PERs over 3.0 with good amino acid balance.
