摘要
背景:全球对植物性食品的消费呈增加趋势,但人们对英国植物性肉类替代品和餐馆食品的营养成分和价格知之甚少,也不知道它们与非植物性食品的比较。目的:本研究比较了英国超市和餐馆销售的植物性和非植物性食品/产品的营养成分和成本。方法:在本横断面研究中,从五家超市中鉴定出肉类产品(n = 1228)和植物性仿制产品(n = 147)。从10家餐馆中确定了植物性(n = 54)和同等的非植物性(n = 54)产品。采用Mann-Whitney U检验和Wilcoxon sign Rank检验比较植物性和非植物性产品的营养信息(能量、脂肪、饱和脂肪、碳水化合物、糖、纤维、蛋白质和盐)和价格。结果:在超市中,与非植物性产品相比,每份植物性肉类模仿产品的饱和脂肪和蛋白质中位数较低,每100克糖和纤维中位数较高(所有结果p p p p = 0.017),糖(p = 0.007)和蛋白质(p p = 0.009)。每份植物性和非植物性餐厅产品的成本没有差异(p = 0.39)。结论:与肉类相比,英国超市中出售的植物性仿肉产品饱和脂肪含量较低,但含糖量较高,而且价格要贵得多。餐馆出售的植物性产品可能是更健康的选择,每份产品不需要额外成本。
A cross-sectional study of the cost and nutritional content of plant-based meat-imitation products in supermarkets and plant-based products in restaurants in the United Kingdom.
Background: There is a global trend of increasing consumption of plant-based foods, yet little is known about the nutritional composition and price of plant-based meat alternatives and restaurant items in the United Kingdom, and how they compare to non-plant-based options. Aim: This study compared the nutritional content and cost of plant-based and non-plant-based foods/products sold in UK supermarkets and restaurants. Methods: In this cross-sectional study, meat-based products (n = 1228) and plant-based-imitation products (n = 147) were identified from five supermarkets. Plant-based (n = 54) and equivalent non-plant-based (n = 54) items were identified from ten restaurants. Nutritional information (energy, fat, saturated fat, carbohydrate, sugar, fibre, protein, and salt) and price of the products was compared for plant-based and non-plant-based products using the Mann-Whitney U test and Wilcoxon Signed Rank test. Results: For supermarkets, the plant-based meat-imitation products had lower median saturated fat and protein, and higher median sugar and fibre per 100 g compared with non-plant-based products (all results p < 0.001). Plant-based supermarket products were more expensive (median £1.02/100 g vs £0.85/100 g; p < 0.001). For restaurant products, plant-based items were significantly lower in energy (p < 0.001), saturated fat (p = 0.017), sugar (p = 0.007) and protein (p < 0.001), and higher in fibre (p = 0.009), per serving, compared with non-plant-based products. There was no difference between the cost of plant-based and non-plant-based restaurant products per serving (p = 0.39). Conclusion: Plant-based meat-imitation products available in UK supermarkets were lower in saturated fat, but higher in sugar compared with meat options, and were significantly more expensive. Plant-based products sold in restaurants may provide a healthier alternative, at no additional cost per serving.
