I was in the local 7-Eleven the other day and one of the employees was changing the Chili from their Hot Cheese and Chili Machine. Looking at the Chili it said very clearly "Made From Beef TVP".
The Chili they have there is pretty darn good for something that comes out of a bag. So not bad for a TVP Product.

Recently heard several people interviewed that suffered extreme itching and other health issues as a result of eating GMO foods.
Sadly, TVP are a primarily soy product and virtually 100% of the soy on the market today is GMO.
This is another strike against the more cost effective TVP's.
I have a number of TVP's in my Long Term Foods Storage and although I've never had any issues with it personally, I do have family members that are quite sensitive to GMO foods.
Although I like the cost effectiveness of TVP's because of the growing dangers posed by GMO's, regretably I think the risks now far out weigh the benefits. I will keep the TVP's I currently have but will make sure I do not add anymore to my long term food storage.
