| Abstract | The increasing demand for sustainable and ethical food alternatives has been addressed through significant advancements in synthetic food technologies, with particular emphasis placed on plant-based meat. In this review, the pivotal role played by chemistry in the synthesis of plant-based meat products is explored. The replication of sensory attributes and nutritional profiles traditionally associated with animal-derived meat is achieved through the application of chemical principles to plant-based matrices. Molecular interactions and the functional behaviours of plant-derived proteins, lipids, carbohydrates, and flavour compounds are examined. Special attention is given to techniques such as protein texturization, emulsion stabilization, and the optimization of the Maillard reaction, which are employed to enhance texture, flavour, and appearance. Innovations in mimicking the structural and metabolic complexity of animal meat are analysed, and current limitations are outlined. Through this synthesis, current scientific insights are connected with emerging technological developments, and the transformative potential of chemistry in the field of synthetic foods is highlighted. |
