In the last few years, vegan meat has soared in popularity. In fact, according to some estimates, the market could even hit a value of more than $33 billion by 2031 (it’s worth just over $5 billion currently, reports Allied Market Research). Now, it’s not out of the ordinary to find plant-based burgers, sausages, nuggets, wings, and more on supermarket shelves and restaurant menus. But, as food technology progresses and innovates, whole cuts of vegan meat are also set to rise in popularity. Yep, that means big juicy slabs of steak, chicken, fish, and more. Just as satisfying as the real deal, only without the animal products.
