Review of sensational filet - Garden Gourmet by cloudyaquilegia

So the advertisement on the street worked for me... even if I already had this product months ago and was not too fond of it, after seeing the ad all over Zurich I wanted to try it again. Yesterday I was shopping grocery for a barbecue this evening, and I thought this would be great on the grill. I was in #migros , one of the main supermarkets of Switzerland, and first I couldn't find it, so I bought various different things (vegan sausages, vegan skewer, corn...), but then, some aisles away, I found it, the sensational #filet #chickenstyle I was looking for at first. It came in a double package with an offer of 25%, so I payed it 9.75 CHF instead of 13 for 4 filets. Still expensive, but this is a freeking expensive land...
Migros is developing the vegan offer: instead of having a super small section where everything was put together, there are now more sections, and bigger, spread around the supermarket 😁 it's surely a great marketing gimmick, so people who already took other products like me yesterday will reconsider and maybe add items, but I like it 🤩 I like to see more and more vegan products around, and I like that they aren't anymore in the meat section, so I can directly skip this horror section.
To come back to the filet. It appears that the main ingredient is... water! 😀 water used to rehydrate wheat and soy protein and just pure water 😅 then there is #colza oil and #sunflower oil, brandy vinegar, some aroma, lemon fibres and other spices. The nurti-score indicated on the package is A, so it should be really healthy.
As you see, in the end I couldn't resist and I had it for dinner with some salad. I cooked it with a little bit of sunflowerseeds oil and the colour came out beautifully, as on the picture of the advertisement! It's also true that it has a juicy bite. I had one, and after that I wanted more, but I can't say if I was still hungry or, more likely, just kind of addicted 😅 🙃
I know #nestle is not a good brand to support, but I want to believe that every effort counts when it comes to a change in the society's way of consumption, so I'm happy to see even the big and omnipresent brands see the urge to propose vegan products, even if it is because they see that there is a big demand from the costumers. I won't buy that product often, but I'm glad to have the opportunity to eat it every now and then.
