Quite like this stuff, always have. It's made from gluten and tasty enough by itself, but also fits into rice dishes and all sorts of things. I pity the poor suckers who fell for the con-artist sales angle of "Gluten Free!" who without celiac disease obtain zero value from the lack of gluten in foods that should have it, AND have denied themselves the joy of Companion products that are nothing but.
If you are not already a vegetarian, please lower your expectations on taste. This is a wheat gluten product stored in salt water. It does NOT taste like duck and will not cook like duck. You have to marinate it in something, and being a wheat gluten product, it will absorb the flavor. Also it is already "cooked" so all you are doing is browning it a bit (it cooks as fast as veggies). It's chew is different than veggies and it's nice to have in dishes or skewers. If you want to eliminate meat from your diet, stuff like this will add a nice change of pace and it's healthy to eat. The trick is to know how to marinade it, and for how long to cook it. I keep a bunch of cans in our pantry and like it alot.
I'm always wary about canned substitute meats, but this "mock duck" is fantastic. Sure, it doesn't taste like duck, but it doesn't taste like chewy gluten, either. It's tender and has a "skin," and has good Asian flavoring in the sauce. I use this at least twice a week now. It's great.
I cannot get enough of this stuff! The texture and taste are AMAZING! I just heat it up in a pan without oil and it gets a little charred and crispy on the edges. Add your favorite sauce and some veggies and you've got an amazing, high-protein vegan meal. I just wish it wasn't so expensive.
Definitely doesnt taste like how i remembered roast duck, but its a good seitan for sure. Best thing is it doesnt take up my freezer space!

Description
This authentic canned Asian mock meat has the flavor and texture of real meat. Simply heat and serve this flavorful imitation roast duck. This canned mock meat is great for stir fry, fried rice, noodle dishes, salads, and much more. Comes out of the can in large pieces that are easy to shred, tear, or chop to the desired size.
Very good - the broth it is packed in is very good as well in soups and sauces. This is comparable to what you find in fine Asian restaurants.
I've been vegan for years and was surprised to find this alternative meat product online. I was skeptical. Roast duck? In a can? Boy this product is a game changer. Low calories and high protein often means sacrifice in flavor or fullness. Neither was missing - I had some for lunch and finished the can for dinner. My pantry will not be without this product. GREAT quick meal. YUM!
great tasting!! what can I say.. use it wherever you may use meat. It tastes great.
Why eat dead bird parts when you can have this cruelty free option that tastes great and is made of simple ingredients?
Deliecious. Great product. So good. Thank you for having this product. I looked everywhere, even in specialty markets, and couldn't find.
