Vegan tuna – the latest plant-based alternative that’s taking the food industry by storm. It’s available in chunks, bites and even as a pate, but what is it made from? 

What is vegan tuna made from? 

Recipes seem to vary from brand to brand, however, the majority of products have a general composition of soy protein, with pea protein and chickpea popping up as popular ingredients too. 

Textured soy protein, which you’ll also find in lots of vegan ‘meat’ alternatives like mince, gives these products structure and consistency. So where does the flavour come from? A few seem to be flavoured with algal oil which is also a natural plant-based source of some Omega-3 fats.
