About Soy chunks
Soy chunks are a protein-rich food made from defatted soy flour, a byproduct of soybean oil production. They are highly versatile, originating from plant-based meat substitutes popularized in Indian and Asian cuisines but now embraced globally. Soy chunks are packed with essential nutrients, including protein, fiber, iron, and calcium, making them an excellent choice for vegetarians and vegans. They are low in fat and cholesterol-free, contributing to heart health and weight management. However, moderation is key, as overconsumption of soy products may lead to concerns about phytoestrogen effects or allergen sensitivities in some individuals. Soy chunks are easy to prepare—often soaked in water before cooking—and absorb flavors beautifully, making them ideal for curries, stir-fries, or salads. Balanced with diverse foods, soy chunks can be a healthy addition to any diet, delivering a nutritious and satisfying alternative to traditional meat options.
