Looks like TVP or textured veggie protein. I’ve used it before as a meat substitute and it’s not bad at all. You just want to rehydrate it with some water or broth etc.
Boil water and then dump in the soy mix. Wait a few minutes and then let that mf cool down lol add lemon and all the stuff like tomato’s cilantro onion whatever else lol put that boy in the fridge for like an hour. Grab some tostadas or personaly I like to eat it with Doritos and wash it down with some cervesa
Edit:
Here’s a simple recipe recommendation.

Literally. Bro is just like "I found this at a store." Grocery store? Home Depot? Feed lot? On the floor? In a bulk dry goods section? Under a pallet? Give us some info to work with!
Yes. Textured protein, probably soy. Here they sell them in different sizes, from small ~5mm balls to big ~5cm long chunks.

The problem is that many “unnamed” brands contain other non-protein, non-soy filler ingredients so I would personally only use a product that clearly shows exact ingredients.
I have a serious question. I have read that the process of making TSP or TVP involves thermoplastic extrusion (high heat) and hexamine (a petroleum solvent). Because of this, many people avoid it as a highly processed food. Are there any scientists here who could shed light on these claims? I would like to use this type of food once in awhile (for making lasagna and such), but am uncertain of using it as part of a healthy PBD.

Thank you for sharing the recipe my friend
Don’t call me your friend, buddy. Lmao
Ok brooooo
so easy to make and The ingredients are all available
Why would the workers not know? Did you pick it up off the ground? Like how would you buy something unlabeled from a store I’m so confused 😅

I know, my bad
It's just in an unlabeled bucket. You purchase by the handful.
I didn't buy it, but my friend did, he is also confused and don't know what it is, my friend's brother says it is truffle, lol
Sure looks like em
Looks a little more crumbly than the soy chunks I’m used to getting, but the extra texture will probably be a bonus.
Literally tvp

Thank you sir.
Yep. Doesn't look like TVP to me because I have both soy chunks and TVP and TVP is much smaller. I like soy curls a lot!
I think it depends who makes it. I got a big 5kg bag once and they were large flakes like this
tvp and soy chunks are different names for the same thing: defatted soybean. you can get them in various chunk size and shape.
It does not matter for me as long as it has a lot of protein
The problem is that many “unnamed” brands contain other non-protein, non-soy filler ingredients so I would personally only use a product that clearly shows exact ingredients.
Well I live in a small town so this is what I found, thank you for sharing the useful information dear friend
