Millow's food items contain all nine essential amino acids, vitamins, minerals, and dietary fiber, making them not only healthy but also easy for the body to absorb. The company utilizes a patented technology called MUTE (Mycelium Utilized Texture Engineering), developed from 25 years of research led by Professor Mohammad Taherzadeh, which allows for dynamic texture in their substitutes without the need for food binders. Millow products maintain their chewiness when cooked in dishes, unlike many other substitutes.
