Question 1

Quorn Foods Statement on Avian Flu

Accepted Answer

Due to extensive outbreaks of Avian Flu across Europe and the UK, UK egg-producing poultry have been kept indoors to prevent the spread of Avian Flu through the UK free range flocks. This has now continued for a period of more than 16 weeks, therefore the status of “free range” eggs has been downgraded to “barn”. This situation currently affects Quorn Picnic Eggs 180g & Savoury Eggs 240g only. 
 Defra and BEIC (British Egg Industry Council) has confirmed that packaging for products containing free range egg as an ingredient does not need to changed if clear notice is given in suitable location such as website and through Customer Services. 
 Quorn takes both consumer safety and product labelling very seriously, and we are committed to giving consumers complete clarity around our product ingredients at all times.

Question 2

Quorn Foods Statement on product withdrawal of Quorn Swedish Style Balls

Accepted Answer

Tuesday 14th February, 2023:  We are today withdrawing packs of  Quorn Swedish Style Balls 300g  from retailers, and alerting consumers. A small part from manufacturing equipment entered an ingredient mix, resulting in pieces of hard white plastic in finished product. The withdrawal follows notification from consumers. 
 The withdrawal relates to products with the  Best Before date of 30/09/2024 . No other Best Before dates are affected. 
 The safety and wellbeing of our customers is our number one priority, which is why we have instigated this withdrawal as soon as we became aware of the issue. Customers with affected packs are advised not to eat the product, and to return packs to their retailer for a full refund. 
 No Quorn products other than Swedish Style Balls (300g packs only) are affected.

Question 13

Are animal studies/experiments carried out during the development of Quorn products?

Accepted Answer

Quorn mycoprotein, the core ingredient in all Quorn products, was a novel food source when it was developed in the 1960’s and 1970’s. In order to satisfy the requirements of food regulators, a series of animal feeding trials had to be carried out in order to show that Quorn mycoprotein is fit for human consumption. Different countries around the world have differing requirements for regulatory approval, and since 1995, there have been no further requirements for animal feeding trials. 
 Neither Quorn nor Monde Nissin (Quorn’s owner) will fund, conduct or commission any tests on animals that are not explicitly required by law.

Question 14

Is Quorn safe?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely. 
 Quorn first went on sale in UK in 1985, and has since served over 7 billion meals across 20 different countries. Quorn has been approved for sale by some of the world’s leading health agencies, including the US Food & Drug Administration (FDA), Health Canada (HC), European Food Safety Authority (EFSA), UK Food Standards Agency (FSA) and Food Safety Australia New Zealand (FSANZ).  
 So it’s not just us, but also the world’s leading food regulators who are confident that Quorn is safe. The only suggestion that it isn’t has come from an American website called Centre for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI). We find it puzzling that CSPI – a purported food safety organization – would be opposed to a range of safe products that bring better choice and variety to those looking to reduce the amount of meat in their diet. And it’s particularly strange given the multitude of other foods on the market today that have proven high allergenic properties where CSPI’s voice is all but silent. 
 Consider soy; according to Food Allergy Research & Education (FARE), soy is “one of the more common food allergies, especially among babies and children.” CSPI has not sounded the alarms and called for the removal of soy products from store shelves, as it has with Quorn. This is interesting, given CSPI’s collaboration with the American Soybean Association (ASA), allegedly dating back to 1991, and their rather flattering coverage of the ingredient in recent years. In 2014, CSPI’s founder, Michael Jacobson, was a featured speaker at an event sponsored by the ASA. CSPI also published a favourable report on soy later that same year. We think the public is right to wonder whether the motives behind CSPI’s long-standing campaign to disparage Quorn have been pure in nature.

Question 16

What does Quorn taste like?

Accepted Answer

Quorn meat alternatives taste different depending upon the way the product is cooked and seasoned. Quorn Pieces taste amazing in a stir fry or pie because their texture means that they soak up all the sauce and flavour. Quorn Mince is a delicious meat-free mince which takes on the flavour of whatever it is cooked in, meaning it's perfect for lasagne, cottage pie and tacos! With so many products to choose from, great tasting meals are just minutes away!

Question 17

Accepted Answer
