This TrueCut technology is the basis of a new line of whole-muscle chicken from TiNDLE and it makes the most of custom and advanced techniques in plant-based protein. This technology comes at a time when consumers have come to expect plant-based meats to mirror the experience of eating animal-based meats. TiNDLE TrueCut replicates the fat content and muscle tissue in poultry chicken using just five remarkably simple ingredients in its plant-powered protein base: water, soy protein, sunflower and rapeseed oils, natural flavorings and salt. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.9/10 - Popularity: 34% | Activity: 37% | Freshness: 16% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Plant-based Protein:** TiNDLE TrueCut sets a new standard for plant-based proteins that replicate the experience of animal-based meats. - **Whole-muscle Replication:** TiNDLE TrueCut's technology replicates the fat content and muscle tissue of animal-based chicken in a plant-based protein. - **Simplicity in Ingredients:** Only five simple ingredients are used in TiNDLE TrueCut's plant-based protein base that delivers a taste and texture comparable to animal-based chicken. ### Who This Affects Most - **Plant-based Food:** The plant-based food industry can disrupt the meat industry with technological advancements such as TiNDLE TrueCut's replication of fat content and muscle tissue in whole-muscle plant-based proteins. - **Food Technology:** The food technology industry can explore advanced techniques in plant-based protein to meet consumer demands for meat alternatives that closely mimic the experience of animal-based meats. - **Hospitality and Foodservice:** The hospitality and foodservice industry can provide customers with more plant-based options that replicate the taste and texture of animal-based meats with innovative products like TiNDLE TrueCut's whole-muscle plant-based chicken. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Gourmet Meatless Dishes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tindle-plant-based-chicken.md) - [Plant-Based Foodservice Chicken Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tindle-gourmet-chicken.md) - [Stuffed Plant-Based Chicken Cutlets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stuffed-chicken-range.md) - [Plant-Based Home Chef Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tindle-products.md) - [Whole-Cut Vegan Meats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plant-based-whole-cuts.md) - [Hyper-Realistic Plant-Based Chicken](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/this-isnt-chicken-thighs.md) - [AI-Created Meatless Tenders](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/notchicken-tenders.md) - [Frozen Plant-Based Chicken Products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/just-meat-chicken.md) - [Plant-Based Chicken Breasts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plant-based-chicken-breasts.md)
