Confused about “ultra-processed” foods? You’re not alone! Brits everywhere are questioning their plates, especially with everything from bread to burgers now being labelled UPF. But fear not—Quorn, the UK’s leading meat-free brand, is here to clear up the chaos.
They’ve teamed up with top nutritionist and Instagram sensation Rhiannon Lambert, aka Rhitrition, to debunk the myths surrounding processed foods. Searches for “ultra-processed foods” have skyrocketed, causing more panic than clarity. But Rhiannon, a registered nutritionist, wants everyone to know that not all processed foods deserve the heat.
Rhiannon says, “As a nutritionist who is invested in the conversations around ultra-processed foods, it’s key to highlight that not all ultra-processed foods are the same. Quorn offers a meat-free option that’s a source of complete protein, high in fibre, and low in saturated fat.”
To help you navigate the jargon, Quorn has released a free fact file that breaks down common myths and explains why some processing is good for keeping food safe, sustainable, and affordable. Lucy Grogut from Quorn Foods UK says, “It’s frustrating to see meat-free options dismissed in sweeping generalisations about ‘processed’ foods. Our products are nutritious, delicious, and a positive protein choice.”
Quorn is committed to transparency, and some of their products like Mince and Pieces are now made with no artificial ingredients—boasting cleaner ingredient lists without sacrificing taste.
For those looking to up their healthy cooking game, Rhiannon’s got you covered with her top tips for nutritious family meals. Check out her blog for more details! Don’t be misled by the myths; make informed food choices with a little help from Quorn and Rhiannon. 🍽️🌱
