Changing Dietary Pattern Leading to Increasing Demand for Meat Alternatives
Cutting off meat completely from the diet is difficult for many consumers, hence, flexitarianism is regarded as an achievable dietary change for many, rather than going completely vegan or vegetarian. Flexitarian is a portmanteau of flexible vegetarianism and encompassed individuals whose protein intake is dependent on sustainable sources like plant-based foods, and drastically reduce the consumption of meat in their diet. This trend is being backed by many food giants, which collectively supports the growth of all meat substitute products such as tofu, tempeh, RTC/RTE, natto, and others. Manufacturers are also striving to develop plant-based food products which offer meat-familiar texture and taste attributes, with the help of advanced food technology. This demonstrates the intensity of consumer demand for plant-based meat substitutes. Another major concern about meat consumption is the carbon footprint and a potential negative change in the climate. All soy-based food production is being closely scrutinized for its carbon emissions, including tempeh and tofu production in Indonesia, so as to compare their sustainable advantages over the meat industry.
