...lump of gristle.
The Quorn range is great as they (mostly) taste like meat but personally I don't think it has that meaty texture.
The product I have just finished off with my dinner tonight was the Deli ham flavoured slices. I think that apart from the Quorn sausages and the mince this is my favourite product of theirs. The packaging is a clear cellophane / plastic pocket, exactly the same as you would find real meat and chicken slices in. The ... ...and green oval Quorn logo and a scrumptious looking picture of a poached egg and Quorn slice muffin.
The aroma that greets you when you rip open the packet is slightly off putting - a cross between tuna and corned beef and , so some disgruntled friends that I have occasionally breathed on after scoffing Quorn sarnies tell me, the smell does linger on the breath.
However get past this and for 100g you have usually around eight slices or a nice sized ...

Advantages: Low fat and tasty, free food on Slimming World Disadvantages: Texture a bit powdery, can work out expensive
The Quorn Deli range is a range of sliced sandwich style alternative meat. Quorn is made from mycroprotien and flavoured like meat. There is many other styles like Quorn sausage (available in cumberland sausage, sweet chilli, sizzling flavours) and Quorn pieces (tandori and chicken flavoured) and also mince style pieces. Quorn Deli slices come in turkey and cranberry, smoked ham, beef and chicken flavours.
Quorn is a really low fat alternative to ... ...The Deli range of Quorn does tend to be a bit powdery and doesn't look or feel like chicken slices would. The Deli slices are also quite dry so need to be accompanied by mayo or some other sauce. Buying Quron can also work out expensive, I try to stock up when there is a deal on in the supermarket. One pack of 8 slices can be up to £1.40 in some shops. The real plus about Quorn and the Quorn Deli range is that if you are on the Slimming World diet, ...

Advantages: low fat, vegetarian, healthy, tastes great Disadvantages: a little pricey and can be hard to get
...was tough. I discovered the quorn deli range while shopping online with asda, and I decided to try it. I was a little sceptical as some quorn products just arent to my tastes but as there was nothing else available of this product type, I ordered a pack or each one. Four types arrived with my shopping, chicken style slices, ham flavoured slices, turkey with stuffing slices and bacon style strips. Eager to try them I made a huge batch of sandwiches ... ...cant eat bread! haha!).
They come in easy to open packs, the kind with the solid plastic back and a pull down/off thin plastic front. they dont store well in the packs though as they are not resealable, so you need to put them in cling film of a resealable tub.
I love the texture of all these products, its good enough to be very close to that of real meaty slices and I found the flavour of the ham was very close to that of the real ham I used to ...

Advantages: Tastes like ham! Disadvantages: The artificial pink colour, powdery texture, can be pricey
When my sister put some Quorn deli ham-style slices into my shopping trolley a few days ago, I had my concerns because the 8 slices looked suspiciously pink, and uniform in colour and shape. I was also a little surprised she picked them up because she's an avid meat-eater and would never consider becoming a vegetarian.
The artificially-pink appearance of the slices, to be honest, really put me off and I procrastinated trying the ham. Now that I've ... ...a meat substitute and why she likes them so much. The slices smell just like ham, and they taste just like ham. I say this with conviction because I've only recently converted to being a vegetarian so I can still remember the taste of real ham :D
The downside of this meat is that it's a little powdery and dry, and would benefit from mayo or some other sauce in a sandwich (I used Japanese-style Kewpie mayo and it tasted great). For people who like ...

Quorn Deli comes in various shapes and sizes, chicken flavour, stuffed turkey, bacon flavour rashers, wafter thin deli (ham, chicken) and pate.
The price for 100g pack range from 1.29 onwards depending on the supermarket.
For 100g serving, you receive 8-10 slices of ham which not only smell similar to real ham but they taste similar to. As a veggie I find them so moorish, I can easily eat a whole pack and not be concerned with the calories as a ... ...which is perfect if you are watching your weight.
Ideal for sandwiches, ham and cheese (like the good ole days) Egg and Ham muffins (as shown on the pack)add to salads, the list is endless.
Whilst I am a huge fan of ham, because of the moorish taste and texture, the chicken version is the complete opposite, it's lack of smell and flavour make you feel as though you are chewing an old boot. However, with some shredded lettuce, tomatoe and Mayo, ...

Advantages: Excellent sandwich filling alternative Disadvantages: Some are better than others
...cranberry or stuffing makes the Quorn taste more interesting, especially for those who don't normally like Quorn.
There are usually eight slices in pack and then are unfortunately packaged like processed meat slices. Some supermarkets keep them with the Qourn/vegatarian range, but I note my local Tescos keeps them with the pre-packed meat slices. Not all supermarkets stock the full range and I have found that the chain supermarkets try and stock ... ...The pack contains 5 Quorn sticks and a reasonable sized sachet of satay sauce for approx £1.39. I note on the Quorn website that they do peppered 'beef' style slices so I will look out for them. All Quorn products are naturally low in fat and offer a good source of protein. More information on the full range and stockists can be found at www.quorn.co.uk ...

Advantages: very convienient Disadvantages: not enough stores stock them
...I find appealing. I use quorn pieces, mince and fillets but find they all need lots of flavours added to make them interesting but. ................ guess what Ive discovered SWEDISH QUORN BALLS. They need little cooking and actually have a taste that makes them a great alternative. At last ... mind you lets hope the manaufacturers make more tasteful alternatives or else Ill end up looking like a quornball !!!!!!! Where do you buy them? How much ...

Advantages: Handy sandwich filling Disadvantages: Packaging doesn't keep food fresh once opened
...could be improved as once opened it is difficult to keep the product fresh unless tranferred to something more substantial. I have since bought this product and enjoyed it thoroughly. I am keen on the Quorn range as a whole but do sometimes find it a little overpriced. ...
