Whitworths, a renowned UK brand for dried fruits, nuts, and home baking products, has ventured into the meat alternatives market with their new plant-based mince made from walnuts, lentils, and red quinoa. The Nutty Kitchen Supermince range boasts being the UK's first unprocessed meat-free mince and comes in four flavors - Original, Indian, Mexican, and Italian. These flavors cater to various dishes such as hotpot, curries, tacos, and pasta meals.

Described as "astonishingly nutritious" and with a texture similar to conventional beef mince, the Nutty Kitchen Supermince products are high in protein and fiber, with the walnuts providing omega-3 fatty acids. The Original, Mexican, and Italian varieties are currently available at Ocado, with the Original Supermince set to launch in Gousto meal kits from January. By the end of the month, all four products will also be accessible for purchase on Whitworths' online store, promising tasty and healthy options for consumers seeking plant-based alternatives.
