Recipe Inspiration - DISCOVER QUORN - Recipe Inspiration - DISCOVER QUORN AUTUMN / WINTER 2018 INTRODUCTION We published our first Quorn™ Recipe Inspiration Book in April 2017 and we do so twice every year, in line with the seasons and your menu planning. The idea behind them is to provide fabulously tasty, nutritious and on-trend meat free recipe ideas, complete with ingredients lists, methods and nutritional information for you to easily transfer onto your menus. Why? Because over a third of UK consumers are actively reducing the amount of meat they eat* and this number is increasing every year, which means that having a tasty range of meat free dishes on your menus for customers to enjoy has never been more important! To demonstrate the versatility of Quorn as an ingredient– across different day parts, cuisines and dish-styles, we have created another cracking set of recipes to see you through Autumn/Winter 2018, including ideas for National Curry Week, Diwali, Bonfire Night and British Pie Week.

Our recipes are of course meat free and – in some cases, vegan twists on traditional festive faves to inspire your customers. Our recipes are for meat eaters too. In fact, 73% of Quorn enthusiasts eat meat**, proving that Quorn is for everyone! They choose it because Quorn recipes taste good, they’re kinder to the planet, can be better for them and can also be a nutritious protein source too. We hope you enjoy making and tasting our Autumn/Winter recipe ideas as much as we enjoyed creating them. More than that – we hope we see some of them on your menus.

  • Assessing the Viability of Meat Alternatives to Mitigate the Societal Concerns Associated with Animal Agriculture in India
    The Pennsylvania State University The Graduate School ASSESSING THE VIABILITY OF MEAT ALTERNATIVES TO MITIGATE THE SOCIETAL CONCERNS ASSOCIATED WITH ANIMAL AGRICULTURE IN INDIA A Thesis in Energy, Environmental, and Food Economics by Rashmit Arora 2019 Rashmit Arora Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Science August 2019 ii The thesis of Rashmit Arora was reviewed and approved* by the following: Edward Jaenicke Professor of Agricultural Economics Graduate Program Director: Energy, Environmental, and Food Economics Thesis Co-Advisor Daniel Brent Assistant Professor of Environmental Economics Thesis Co-Advisor Amit Sharma Professor of Hospitality Management/Finance Director, Food Decisions Research Laboratory Robert Chiles Assistant Professor of Rural Sociology *Signatures are on file in the Graduate School iii Abstract Meat alternatives such as plant-based and cell-based meat offer a demand-side solution to the environmental, nutritional, and other societal concerns associated with animal-intensive agriculture. However, little is known about the consumer preferences of meat alternatives, which will ultimately dictate their effectiveness in shifting demand away from conventional animal-based meat products. This thesis attempts to address this gap by assessing consumer preferences for four sources of protein – conventional meat, plant-based meat, cell-based meat, and chickpeas – in India, a rapidly developing country that has been consistently witnessing an increase in demand for animal-based protein. The sheer size of India’s population makes its existing and future consumption trends of global import. Using a discrete choice experiment (n = 394) that was conducted via a face-to-face survey in the city of Mumbai and analyzed by a latent class model, four heterogeneous segments in the market are identified.

  • Planting a Plant-Based Future in China: a Study of China’S Growing Plant-Based Industry
    Planting a Plant-Based Future in China: A study of China’s growing plant-based industry Erin Zhang Department of Urban and Environmental Policy Occidental College Class of 2021 ABSTRACT In 2016, the Chinese government published new Dietary Guidelines that suggested a 50% decrease in citizen meat consumption to help curb carbon emissions and reduce diet-related illnesses. This study examines whether brand marketing and consumer messaging of plant-based meats align with the intended goals of the 2016 policy, and whether the rise of plant-based meat products is related to this policy. Semi-structured interviews were conducted to examine how companies position themselves in the market and consumer perspectives were analyzed through a detailed media analysis by identifying how plant-based products were being framed pre and post COVID-19. Results demonstrate that health concepts are the utmost important message for both companies and consumers, while climate messaging holds a much lower priority. Ironically, strong trust in government is identified yet policy implementations of climate goals seem to fall short. The influence of young generations and QSR’s (quick service restaurants) are identified as a new finding in this area of research which provides implications for future messaging around plant-based products. These results imply there are disparities between the goals of the 2016 policy and the actual deliverables of the policy. It also conveys the importance of health messaging around plant-based products for Chinese consumers, which may be uprooted by the incoming generations. More importantly, it outlines the need for more climate education and understanding around plant-based products in China, as well as critical future research in this field.

  • Feeding the Vegetarian Baby
    Leicestershire Nutrition and Dietetic Services Feeding the Vegetarian Baby Page 1 of 16 FEEDING THE VEGETARIAN BABY This is a guide for parents who wish to bring their child up on a lacto-ovo vegetarian diet (a diet which includes eggs, milk and milk products). INTRODUCING YOUR BABY TO SOLID FOODS You should start giving your baby solid foods (often called ‘weaning’) when they are around six months old. The latest research from the World Health Organisation shows that before this time your baby, for a variety of reasons is not ready for anything else apart from breast milk or formula milk (see section below on risks of starting early). If you are breast feeding, giving only breast milk up to six months will provide your baby with extra protection against infection. Breastfeeding beyond six months alongside solid foods will continue to protect your baby for as long as you carry on. If you are bottle feeding, you should give your baby infant formula until around six months and continue it afterwards along with solid foods until the baby is a year old. If your baby seems hungrier before the age of six months, give them extra milk feeds. Premature babies may be ready for solids at different times. Ask your Health Professional for advice on what is best for your baby. Your baby is ready if they can: • Stay in a sitting position and hold their head steady • Co-ordinate their eyes, hands and mouth so that they can look at food, pick it up and put it in their mouth all by themselves • Swallow Food.
