(What's Inside)

How do we get our chicken so tender, juicy, and delicious?

Impossible Chicken Meat From Plants is made with soy protein to deliver that meaty bite. This plant-based protein is a good source of—yep!—protein, as well as essential Vitamins like vitamin B12. Sunflower oil gives Impossible Chicken its juiciness. And holding it all together is methylcellulose (a common binder in sauces, jams, even ice cream) and food starch (a carbohydrate regularly used in foods like canned soup). A blend of herbs and seasoning gives our plant-based chicken a delicious, savory flavor. And lastly, wheat flour creates golden-brown breadcrumbs to give it a crispy coating.
