Short answer: absolutely.
But if you’re here, you probably want the longer version. So let’s dive in.
Whether you’re vegan, vegetarian, plant-curious, or just trying to eat more sustainably, you’ve probably come across a few different mince substitutes - from lentils and mushrooms to supermarket mock meats and the classic: TVP (textured vegetable protein).
And that brings us to Vince.
Vince is a mince alternative - just not like the others.
Vince was created for people who want the heartiness of mince, without the meat, the mystery, or the heavily processed ingredients.
So yes, Vince is a mince alternative - but not one trying to taste exactly like meat. And definitely not one packed with artificial additives or flavourings.
Instead, Vince is made from vegetables and real whole food ingredients you can recognize - with a satisfying texture, rich flavour, and all the versatility you’d expect from your go-to mince.
What about TVP?
If you’ve been cooking plant-based for a while, there’s a good chance you’ve cooked with TVP. It’s been a staple for many - and there’s nothing wrong with that.
But we know TVP isn’t for everyone.
Some people love it. Others don’t vibe with the texture, or prefer to skip processed soy. That’s why Vince exists - to give you a different kind of option.
