I’ve used Milpas brand TVP before and haven’t been able to find it locally here in my Midwest US state. I love how the texture holds together even when stewed or in a soup/broth base for an extended cooking period. This is a much larger size crumble than Bob’s Red Mill TVP, so if you’re looking for more of a ground meat texture, this might not be right for you. I use this in everything from curries to taco meat, and am even trying my hand at making my own soy chorizo soon. The versatility of this TVP is excellent and the price is fair for the amount you get as compared to using meat.

This was a very good buy. I acquired 12 pounds for less than $38 USD. This isn't the even textured bits of a common nationally available brand, but that is nothing a spice mill won't solve.Using a spice mill to turn this into a finer grain is important to me because I find the texture to be spongy, and, if it isn't well seasoned, that texture makes me think of chewing wet cardboard. That might not be a factor in every use, but, for me, it dictates use.Because I am using this as a protein filler, it makes it reasonably effective to grind a measured portion. I do this after I grind my spice, to clean the grinder without water. I use separate grinders for spice and coffee, because both have strongly flavored oils. The soy crumbles clean the blades, and increase to palatable texture.What I have not been able to do is use this alongside ground meat, at least, not in chili, but I have used this in place of ground meat, once, to make stuffed butternut squash. I don't recommend making that substitution for an omnivore. Anyone who knows and likes a good beef burger or sausage will know, so you will want to tell them. But, I have successfully added this, ground, for a meat-free loaf type dish. It's not Mama's meatloaf, but, if you pour on enough milk gravy, it will be edible. That makes this stuff economical and versatile. Good enough for me.

I really enjoy this product, I add to soup, ramen and it makes great taco meat, really good deal too. I'll buy again

I keep this product on a frequent subscription, and use it to create easy and affordable vegan meals that even Bible-belt carnivores enjoy. It's all in the preparation, and overall I am quite pleased with the product. It's not the best TVP I've had, but I've yet to order a bad batch. I have experienced a few mishaps in shipping, though. The boxes routinely come absolutely battered and sometimes I lose a pack or two because they're open.

Heart healthy, great value!! (The box was not taped well, one cello bag blew open and the contents were scattered, but no harm, no foul - still the best deal to be found!) The chunks resemble crumbled caramel corn or dog kibble, in size. They are GREAT as an addition to almost anything that's simmering on the stove. By "soaking up" the flavor of contents in the pot, they are best not having any flavor of their own. The ability to get such great protein, devoid of salt, saturated fat and cholesterol, is wonderful. Keep up the good work Milpas!! Hope this product will continue to be readily available and more people will walk, skip or jump on the heart-healthy path :)
