07 Dec 2021 --- Future plant-based foods will go beyond mimicking animal products, according to Griffith Foods, a specialist in texture, sauces and coating systems. The company flags that as more consumers grow up without meat as a reference, industry will proliferate with creative and cleaner label protein innovations. “Ford’s first Model T car directly tried to mimic a horse and carriage. That was phase one,” says Wim Van Roekel, president of Griffith Foods Europe.
