Process for the preparation of a fibrous product comprising protein and having a moisture content of at least 65% by weight by first preparing a homogenous mixture of protein material comprising cheese, a moisture binder material, a calcium-complex forming agent, a hydrocolloid which precipitates with metal cations and water at a temperature from 70 to 90° C. under high shear with the pH of the homogenous mixture being from 6.4 to 7.5. The homogenous mixture has a water content of at least 75% by weight, whilst total protein content is from 5 to 20% by weight. A solution of a metal cation with a valency of at least 2 is subsequently added in order to form the fibrous product. This fibrous product is then isolated and cooled. The fibrous product thus obtained is particularly suitable for use in preparing meat substitute products.

A dry collagen powder with satiating activity can be used as a food additive or incorporated into a food product to increase its satiating power. The satiating powder can be used in dietary and/or medical treatments in humans or animals to increase satiety and reduce the feeling of hunger and, in this way, reduce food intake. The dry collagen powder is useful for combating obesity.

A method for manufacturing a proteoglycan-containing composition including: a freezing step for freezing a starting material, where raw cartilage derived from fish is used as the starting material; and a freeze-drying step for freeze-drying frozen articles obtained in the freezing step. The method may also include an extraction step for furthermore adding an aqueous solvent to the resultant freeze-dried articles to carry out extraction. Additionally, a method for manufacturing a proteoglycan-containing composition including a mincing step for forming a starting material into surimi, where raw cartilage derived from fish is used as the starting material; and an extraction step for adding an aqueous solvent to the surimi obtained in the mincing step to carry out extraction.

The present disclosure provides methods and compositions useful for the production of slaughter-free meat products, and the characterizations of the same. The slaughter-free meat products contain several points of distinction when compared to conventional meat procured by harvesting the tissue of a dead animal. Such points of distinction include, but are not limited to, significantly reduced or substantially no: steroid hormones, antibiotics, or microbial contamination; lower fat content; no vasculature; and extended shelf life both at room temperature and when refrigerated.
