Textrued Soy Protein comes from defatted soy flour, which is a by-product of soybean oil, so it is plentiful in supply.
It's also quick to cook and a great source of vegetable protein without all the fat.
Textured Soy Protein comes in small dry chunks resembling, well, dried vegetables more than anything, or in a finely-ground form. It's flavorless, but when you rehydrate it and add your own flavors, it makes a great protein-filled addition to many dishes calling for ground meat. Because of its varying texture, it's versatile, and can take on the texture of many meats. For instance, it's excellent in chili, tacos, veggie burgers and soups.
