Amazing food
Founded in 2013 by Timo Recker, whose family background is in the meat industry, following the realisation that “plant-based protein was better for his personal health and for that of the planet”, LikeMeat aims to create realistic meat alternatives that don’t “mean sacrificing taste or texture.”
According to Recker:
“I wanted to recreate all the things that I love – chicken, kebabs, sausages – in a healthy way and without losing any flavour or satisfaction.
“And I wanted to make sure that you can stand next to your buddy at the BBQ and proudly throw on some pea sausages. For us, it’s not about creating a substitute. It’s about making amazing food.”
