Meat production is known to have a negative impact on the environment and the best way to reduce it is to stop consuming animal meat. However, it’s easier said than done, especially for those who can’t live without having a juicy steak or a burger once in a while. That’s why, over the years, the alternative meat market has started booming. With many new technologies invented in an attempt to produce a plant-based meat that tastes just as good as the real thing, people are shifting their preferences for environmentally friendly food.

Alt-steaks are designed to perfectly mimic the muscle structure of beef. After working closely with “meat experts” such as chefs, food technologists, and butchers, Redefine Meat digitally mapped more than 70 different sensory factors to create that juicy, tasty steak.

The steaks are made out of soy and pea proteins, coconut fat and sunflower oil, natural colors, and flavors. Being plant-based, they are healthier than the real ones as they don’t have cholesterol and are high in protein.

The beef cuts are soon to be tested in high-end restaurants in Israel and hopefully, they will be available for broader distribution next year.
