Nuteena Explained

Nuteena was a vegetarian meat analogue made primarily from peanut meal, soy, corn, and rice flour.^{[1] [2]} Its recipe was based on Nuttose, which John Harvey Kellogg (whose brother Will Keith Kellogg founded what is now Kellogg's) created in 1896 as the first American meat analog.^{[3] [4] [5]} Nuteena was especially popular among Seventh-day Adventists, many of whom choose to be vegetarian based on the health message promoted by their church.^[6]

History

Loma Linda Foods, a health food company owned by the Seventh-day Adventist Church, produced Nuteena starting in 1949. In 1980, Loma Linda Foods was purchased by Worthington Foods, which in turn was purchased by Kellogg's in 1999.^[7] Kellogg's discontinued production of Nuteena in 2005
