Both are made from a blend of soy, pea, and proteins using the  “True Texture Technology” which is aimed to mimic animal products as closely as possible.

Co-founder Marcos Leta said the firm decided to create its own version of tuna as it's one of the most consumed fish in the world, despite some species being endangered.

He added: “As a food company that uses technology, we are and will continue to reinvent and look to improve in terms of taste, sustainability, and healthiness. 

“We plan to make slaughterhouses – which no longer belong in this new world – increasingly obsolete with our products, which are better for people and our planet.”
