Provided herein are color-fast edible compositions and methods of making the same. In some cases, the color-fast edible compositions comprise a comprising an exogenous protein component and a biomass comprising cells of a pigmented algae. The pigmented algal cells may be physically associated with the exogenous protein component such that the pigmented algal cells confer a pigmentation to the edible compositions and are substantially dissociable from the exogenous protein component. Further provided herein are food products (e.g., meat substitutes, fish or shellfish substitutes) comprising the color-fast edible compositions of the disclosure.

The present invention relates to a processed, solid soya protein product derived from soya bean meal (SBM) which protein product comprises 65-75% protein by weight of dry matter, has a protein to potassium weight ratio of at least about 70:1 and a dry matter content of at least about 90%, which product is substantially free of sodium, and wherein at least about 65% by weight of the indigestible oligosaccharide content of the SBM wherefrom the protein product is derived has been removed. The invention further relates to a leaching method for manufacture of the product as well as product obtainable by the method and use of the processed, solid soya protein product.

A substance which adds body to a food product, and a body-adding agent for food products that uses the substance are provided. More specifically, the body adding agent for food products is characterized by having as an active component a peptide, or a salt thereof, that is characterized in that the γ-glutamyl bond number is 2-4 and the peptide chain length is the γ-glutamyl bond number +1 to +2, a food product manufacturing method that uses the peptide, and a method for adding body to a food product, characterized by adding the peptide are provided.

It is disclosed a method of producing a food product for human consumption by using extrusion from a plant-based food material and gutted and plucked poultry comprising bones, hard tissues, tendons, skin and/or cartilages.
