The new trend of plant-based food products has a new addition: shrimp.

Tyson Foods announced its investment in New Wave Foods, which focuses on producing plant-based shellfish, and plans to have a shrimp alternative ready for foodservice operators in early 2020, according to a press release.

“We’re excited about this investment in the fast-growing segment of the plant-based protein market," Amy Tu, president of Tyson Ventures said in a statement."This continues our focus of identifying and investing in companies with disruptive products and breakthrough technologies related to our core business so we can continue to serve a growing global population."

"Our plant-based shrimp cooks and tastes just like the real thing, and it matches the texture, taste, performance and versatility of shrimp fresh from the ocean," she continued in her statement.

Nice

Closer to John Carpenter’s prediction of “No Meat” in America

I’m allergic to shrimp now that I’m over 40. Sometimes I’ll eat a Benadryl and go for it anyway b/c I like to live dangerously. This looks like a better option. I hope they’re tasty 🤞

Damn now they dragging the good name of shrimp thru the mud😭

OMG

Or just eat vegetables. Or shrimp. Rather than fake pretend stuff and nonsense.

Puke?

Generally, I'm not on board with fake meats, but I'd try this as long as there was no soy. I love shrimp, but I'm always reminded that it's related to cockroaches when I go to eat it.

NO ‼️

Fake shrimp

......and what everybody keeps forgetting is that Al Gore is heavily invested in the fake/phony meat industry...... Hahahahaha

They just pressing stuff into shapes now.

Gross 🤮
