A Food Fight Over a Fungus

By Rosie Mestel, Times Staff Writer

STOKESLEY, England — Refrigerated trucks trundle down
the pretty country lanes laden with pale, doughy masses
of fungus — 32 tons or more a day.

"Pure mycoprotein — good enough to eat, won't taste of
anything, very bland," declares manufacturing manager
Pete Willis, tearing off a golf-ball-sized sample from
a 2,000-pound glob.

Workers in white boots shepherd the fungal paste
through a sea of vats and clanking machines that mix,
press, slice and dice the raw dough.

What comes out at the end is a matter of perspective —
luscious artificial meat patties that taste just like
moist chicken, or dangerous vat-grown "vomit-burgers"
that are sickening consumers from coast to coast.

The product is Quorn, a fungus-based meat substitute
that millions of Europeans have eaten for years. It
entered the U.S. market in 2002 to rave reviews by
consumers, but was quickly met with a dogged anti-Quorn
campaign by an influential consumer group, the Center
for Science in the Public Interest.

Michael Jacobson, the CSPI's executive director, claims
that Quorn, which he derisively terms an "odious"
"mold"-based product, makes people ill — and he wants
every last nugget expunged from American soil.

He has started a "Quorn complaints" website, published
anti-Quorn letters in medical journals and petitioned
the Food and Drug Administration to yank the product,
which he likes to note is made by a former subsidiary
of the "pharmaceutical juggernaut AstraZeneca."

"It seems in the FDA's eyes severe vomiting, diarrhea
and anaphylactic reactions do not constitute harm,"
Jacobson said. "I think that's pathetic."

It's a fair point, since if theses were good reasons to ban food products
you'd have to ban peanut butter too; and I can't see the USA doing that.

Uh...how 'bout peanut butter is domestically produced,
while the "odious mold" is imported?

Just kidding. I don't believe anything that comes out
of the egregiously misnamed Center for Science in the
Public Interest. I imagine there's very little risk
from eating Quorn, and if people want to run the risk,
it should be their business.

I have tried it and have suffered none of these ill effects except that it
doesn't taste good to me. And when I found out it was milk based, well,
never mind....

Congratulations ~~jonnie~~ An on- topic posting!

Pity it was such a load of crap.

'Quorn' is an excellent product in every respect. It offers the vegetarian
such a wide variety of choice cruelty free food. Most products are also
suitable for Vegans.

It is also a valuable tool for those enlightened people who wish to kick the
meat eating habit. 'Quorn' based products and meat taste almost dangerously
the same.

[A fungus based meat substitute] cut the crap and call it a mushroom. The
same way as you call decomposing animal flesh 'Meat'.(Or indeed human flesh
if you live in Canada) www.tinyurl.com/3aao3

I did not register, so I could not view the link you provided. Registration
mean 'Spam' which unlike 'Quorn' is a meat based product. www.spam.com . I
get enough spam asking me if I want to grow 3" extra inches to my penis.

It's a complete fallacy, it worked for three courses only.

It's not milk based Bromo, It's based on good old mushrooms.
Get stuck in.

I got told by the manufacturers of Quorn that it was not safe for me to eat
on a milk-free diet.

I believe the raw materials used to "feed" the fungal/mushroom-like culture
was milk - and heard that is wasn't vegan, therefore. Go figure. Could
easily be wrong...

Not cruelty free; not even close.

Oops, here it is from the site, I stand corrected:

"How is mycoprotein made?

Mycoprotein for Quorn� foods is grown using a controlled fermentation
process so that it can be harvested consistently. All natural vegetable
flavorings are added to the mycoprotein to create the desired flavor, as
well as a small amount of egg white. Then it's shaped into great shapes like
nuggets, tenders and cutlets."

So it has a small amount of egg white in it.

Not sure if the food for the culture is milk or not, though....?

It's the "vegans" themselves provoke that reaction in
others.

Nah!, you've been reading too much ~~jonnie~~. You can't compare one type of
fungi with another. For instance the common field mushroom looks much the
same as 'The Death Cap", one difference, one is a very tasty dish and the
other kills you.( No Antidote).

Be like ~~jonnie~~ and stick with the magic mushrooms. - Ever had any?

They proliferate in Michael Saunsby's part of the country - bet he's had
some:-)

Read Dr. Maharaj's March 4 post "Human Body Parts in Farm Meat"

OR

http://www.cbc.ca/stories/2004/03/10.../pigfarm031004

The meat wasn't commercially distributed, so unless you were a
friend of Willy Pickton, you wouldn't have eaten any.

Well, cannibals eat Athletes feet and they look healthy when I look at the
Pictures of the dudes over down there in Borneo. It is the Human brain that
carries Kuru. The Borneo Athletes feet must also have Athletes foot fungus -
those jungles are as moist as a locker room. I don't see anybody in Borneo
the worse for wear because of eating feet?

I think I should buy some stock in Dennison - am I right they make the foot
powder? I see more itching in the US society but that is about it.


Course I like fish and lamb and and turkey and chicken - not to mention
smoked oysters. I guess now I am going to be asked to give them up too.
Pity really...

Typical student of Rush Limbaugh and Micheal Savage. Here we see the idiot Mr
Ball stereotyping a group of people based on a diet belief or diet advocate but
not necessarily diet practice. Their is no such thing as a vegan per se'. Some
people try cutting out meat/animal products form their diet others just
understand the benefit as well as the draw backs, but just plain understand that
we Americans have to much of a rich/fat diet and much of that comes from animal
based foods. But if the people that chat here don't grab their ankles for the
prison raised white trash Joni Ball he then gives them a label as though anyone
that won't bow to his visceral spewing garbage is somehow less then him in some
way. What we have here is a guy with a **** poor self esteem. He and Mr Etter
have no life other than spewing hateful anger any and all that won't do a virtual
ankle grab for them. These guys are trash goof balls that should only be engaged
in a discussion for the sole purpose of yanking their chain. Toy with them play
them like a fiddle and then just contradict them and disagree any way you can.
Use their well learned (plagiarized) argumentative language word for word and
throw it right back at them. Then kick back and watch them cry like a baby! These
two guys are real Zero assholes.

Now go have fun with them (especially the Mr Ball. He is real damaged material!)

You're punk Mr Ball - plain and simple coward punk. You, I am certain have had

SO it isn't Quorn, then. Thanks for the clarification. Were you present at
all the times you saw reching in front of vegans? Just curious.

You are an ass Mr Ball. This is only a finding that American diets and
standards are not conducive to a diet that is for those that adapt to it
through time. In Africa some tribes make beer by chewing and spitting a
moist root. Do you think that it is suitable for sale in the US? You are
a stupid asshole to act like this is some kind of finding that "vegan"
diet is bad. First time I ate vegemite I spit it out so that I would not
vomit. Do you think that you could tell the Ausi's and New Zealanders
their diet is invalid? You are joke Ball. Go get a life! You are ****ing
dumb ass that is reaching for straws in an argument that you could care
less about. You here only as an excuse to be an abusive bully coward
punk!

Some of the 'Quorn' products do contain egg whites as a binder, therefore
they are not suitable for a Vegan diet.
However these are few, and it always states this on the label. I spoke to
customer service three or four months ago and they informed me that they
were looking at other products to use as a binder.

I think you will find most of their products are safe for a Vegan diet.
