Why This Beats Supermarket Plant 'Meats'

25g protein per serve 
Low-fat (1%), low-carb
Fool-proof preparation (Just add water)
Made with 100% australian wheat (no artificial colours, flavours, preservatives added)
100% plant-based, dairy-free, nut-free


The Science: How we use water and wheat to create protein

Our plant-based 'chicken' shred is made right here in Australia. Our product is based on seitan, a meat alternative made using the protein in wheat that has been made for over 1,000 years. Wheat is naturally contains approximately 13% protein and 70% carbohydrates. As the carbohydrates are mostly water-soluble, they can be washed away. Using these simple principles, we can concentrate the naturally abundant plant-based protein into a product that before hydration is approximately 70% protein.


Simple ingredients you'll love

  • 100% Australian wheat
  • nutritional yeast for umami,
  • soy sauce powder for depth of flavour
  • corn flour to help with moisture absorption
  • salt for taste

Our soy sauce powder is dried on a simple sugar (maltodextrin) and an inert mineral (silicon dioxide) that allows us to increase shelf life without chemical preservatives. If your powder sticks together, it's still good to eat; it just needs a little extra stirring.

If you've got gluten sensitivities, this isn't the product for you.


Kind to the planet

  • 100% Plant-based protein (Compared to chicken: 70% less greenhouse gases, 80% less water and land usage, no animal cruelty)

  • 100% Australian wheat (Australian-owned and made)

  • 100% Recyclable and/or compostable and plastic-free packaging (including labels and glues)

I love the ease after a busy day, not having to do that shopping late in the day run around and still being able to make a "good for me, good for the planet" meal. In less than 15 minutes tops I'm able to whip up something really satisfying and filling and generally without having to cook a thing. Girl dinner sorted! Tastes fabulous and really versatile. 5 stars 🤩🤩🤩 🤩🤩

Hi Mary, we're so glad to hear you enjoy the Plant Based 'Chicken' Shred and how it fits into your busy life! Thanks for the wonderful review and the 5 stars! 😊Who said girl dinner can't be a strong dinner! Stay strong, Matt (founder)

Super impressed with your protein. I was waiting for the weird taste that usually follows vegan chicken but there was nothing there. So easy to prepare and takes on any flavour. Great texture too. I made a “chicken” and herbed mayo salad sandwich, couldn’t tell the difference and I don’t get that chicken ick 😊🤩 can’t wait to try more recipes!

Hi Zoe-May, we're thrilled to hear you loved our Plant Based 'Chicken' Shred! It's fantastic that it worked so well in your salad sandwich and that you couldn't tell the difference. Keen to see what you make next :) Thanks for sharing your experience!

I feel like I should send people your way when they say '...but you can't get strong on plants!'. Thanks for giving us a go, Matt (Founder)

I would actually rate closer to 4.5 stars. I'm very fussy with flavours and textures. I was impressed with the texture of this product, I'd give it 8/10. I wasn't as impressed with the subtle umami flavour, I'd give it 6/10, but I prefer it over any other flavoured plant based proteins I've tried (apart from unhealthy deep fried ones). I'm also happy with the main packaging so far (I have yet to test the bags in my worm farm and other compost bins), the message with meal ideas was a nice touch, but not needed for me. For overall convenience 9/10. I will be purchasing again!

Honestly Inji, this review means so much to me! The effort you've put into specifically identifying where we can do better means you're helping us make an even better product for people and the planet. I'm actively working on alternative flavours and would love to add you to our VIP list for a first try. As for composting, it is a slow process, but it will happen. Wetting the bags to begin with can help soften the kraft outer for the worms to get started. Thanks for fuelling the fire for us to hit 5/5 next time. Much gratitude, Matt (Founder)

Overall it is quite convenient but expensive for what it offers. A bit too.much sodium, but that can be reduced if you use your own spice blend.

Hi Yuri, thank-you for sharing your feedback! We're glad you find the product convenient, and we appreciate your note on the sodium content. It is something we're working on, so watch this space. As for price, we're a premium product, and a result of staying Australian made with premium ingredients and sustainable packaging. Also, I notice you didn't take advantage of the welcome offer, free shipping, or multi-pack discounts, so keep these in mind if you order again. Thanks for giving us a go!

Caroline Dickenson

I wasn't sure what to expect from this product but I was really thrilled with the end result. It was exactly how described - ready in 5 mins, no cooking or added spices needed. The 100gm bag would have easily filled two sandwiches, even though it was only 1 serve, and it tasted great. The texture was great too. Very glad a bought a few 100gm bags as well are the large bag. 9/10. Highly recommend

Hi Caroline, we're thrilled to hear you enjoyed our Plant Based Shredded 'Chicken'! Thanks so much for your kind words and recommendation. We make slightly larger servings sizes, as we always feel we want just that little bit more 😇 Glad you loved it!

Such an easy protein snack. Definitely added to the rotation of food staples. Keeping some hydrated in the fridge is a yummy addition to salads, curries and noodles to get that extra protein in. Also great to take camping as they are lightweight and minimal prep, such an easy addition to the outdoor adventure meals!

Mary

We took this on our recent camping trip this weekend for an easy meal prep and it was all we hoped it would be. Just add boiling water is exactly all it took. We added some yummy Mexican herbs and spices for robust flavour, popped into some wraps with salads and sauces and within 15 minutes of setting up camp we had dinner on the table and our bellies were full. Highly recommend. ( Also it took up such little space and super light, really appreciated the fully compostable packaging too ☺️)

So glad that this worked for your camping trip! Sounds like you had a delicious time! :)

The chicken shred delivers on everything it promises. It rehydrates quickly and effectively, the texture and taste are fantastic, the nutritional value is excellent, doesn't make my tummy sad, the flavour sachet perfect on its own and is a great base for building other flavour profiles, the packaging is compostable, ... I could go on. I am soo stoked to have access to this Australian made plant based protein shred as my local shops only stock really expensive imported stuff. I will continue to buy it and give samples to my veggo friends!

Holy Moly! What a review! We're absolutely stoked you've found us and we've found you. Reviews like this is exactly why we do what we do. Very grateful for the support! Stay strong, Matt (founder)

I’ve been a vegan who loves to cook for almost 20 years. I bought this to try out for hikes and it did not disappoint. I make my own chick’n seitan and this shred comes pretty close to having an equivalent texture. Highly recommended !

Hi there! Thanks so much for sharing your experience. We're thrilled to hear you enjoyed the Plant Based 'Chicken' Shred and that it nearly matches your homemade seitan (that's how we got started). Happy cooking on your hikes! Stay strong, Matt (founder)

Really enjoyed this plant protien! Makes great sandwiches, salads annd stir fry’s and bulks out meals too. Uplifted the umami hit with a little bit of liquid smoke and it was divine. Husband is about to take the single serves on a 6 day through hike on the overland in Tassie, he’ll be eating like a king without all the weight and bulk, which makes me feel better too.

Hi Maria, we're so happy to hear you enjoyed the Plant Based 'Chicken' Shred! Walk like a nomad, eat like a king! (as they say). If he does get images from the hike with some planet-saving protein in them, please do share, and thanks of much for sharing. We're on the final stage of experimenting with some new flavours which we'll be releasing soon, and smokey goodness is definitely a front runner at this stage. Stay strong, Matt (founder)

Frequently Asked Questions

Is it made from GMO wheat?

No. In fact, none of our ingredients are genetically modified. Everything is non-GMO/GMO Free!

How long have you been operating for?

Planet Protein was established in May 2026, but we work with ingredient suppliers and contract manufacturers that have decades of experience producing exceptional quality products and ingredients for some of Australia's leading brands.

Is it made in Australia?

Yes. Our protein is made from 100% Australian wheat, and produced in batches in Western Sydney. Our flavours (roughly 30% of the contents of each packet) is blended by us, from mostly imported ingredients (If you know of Aussie growers of our flavour ingredients, let us know!)

Is it shelf stable?

Our product is designed to be shelf stable and long-lasting. Our multi-serve packs have a best-before of 6-months (as we only started in May 2026, we haven't been around long enough to validate that it can last longer) though all the ingredients are shelf stable for 12-months plus. To extend the shelf life of our individual packets, they are best stored in an airtight container. We use home compostable and recyclable packaging for our individual packets, which means the flavouring can stick together in the packet. It's still just a delicious, and will de-clump when added to hot-water.

Do you sell wholesale?

Absolutely! We have a range of options food service providers, restaurants, cafés and caterers. Please contact us for more details.

Can I buy it in person?

We have two retail outlets in the ACT, Sweet Bones Cafe in Scullin, and Praksis Movement Studio in Campbell. If you think somewhere would be a great partner for us to reach more people, please contact us.

Is it gluten-free?

No, our 'chicken' shred contains gluten, but is free of the preservatives, softeners, colours and other artificial nasties that some other glutinous products contain.

Is it TVP?

No. TVP is made from soy, whereas our 'chicken' shred is made from the protein in wheat. It's a plant-based shredded protein that can be used similarly to shredded chicken. It's made from the protein in wheat (essentially dehydrated seitan if your familiar with that). Wheat is normally thought of as a carbohydrate, but is actually 13% protein. If you remove the carbohydrates and starches like we do, you're left with something more like 80%+ protein. We then include flavourings that make it deliciously ready to eat (unlike other products like TVP and tofu).

How can it be low-carb when it's made from wheat?

Wheat is naturally approximately 13% protein, and 70% carbohydrates. As the carbohydrates are mostly water-soluble, they can be washed away. This allows us to achieve super high protein levels in a product that's typically thought of as a carb
