Yes, you read that right, after a lot of research we have the “Code of Egg" and created a vegan, cruelty-free egg! This was made possible by the German field bean. Whether horse bean, broad bean, broad bean or broad bean - the field bean has many names, but it is one and the same thing Vegetables are legumes and are the main ingredient in Easy To Mix vegan egg. Below we will introduce you to the German field bean in more detail and list the advantages of this miracle plant. We also put the chicken egg in our Easy To Mix Vegan Egg opposite.
The comeback the field bean
The origin of the field bean is believed to be in the Orient and North Africa. Broad bean seeds were found in excavations dating back to around 6,500 BC. A Stone Age settlement dated back to the 1st century BC was found in Israel. This means that the field bean is a real primitive rock. Of course, nowadays the faba bean is no longer found in its smaller wild form, but mainly as a cultivated plant.
In ancient Rome, the field bean came to Central Europe and developed into one of the most important foods. However, after potatoes and runner beans were introduced to the menu, the broad bean was pushed off the plates and was then used primarily as animal feed.
But our research team turned the tide: With our latest innovation – the Easy To Mix Vegan Egg – we are giving the broad bean a proper comeback and bringing it back to the plate. Because: the field bean is a real miracle plant!
Oh, you big egg – what a miracle bean!
When you look at the nutritional values of the German field bean, you have no choice but to be amazed. It is not only rich in protein and fiber, but also has a very low fat content. It also contains high-quality minerals and vitamins.
And are the broad beans sustainable too?!
Correct! The field bean definitely scores points when it comes to sustainability. This is partly because the vegetables are grown in Germany. As a rule, forests are not cut down for this raw material, nor is overseas transport necessary. With German field beans from the region, shorter and transparent supply chains can be guaranteed.
Another advantage of the German field bean comes from the fact that it is a legume and therefore does not require any mineral nitrogen fertilizer. Like all legumes, the field bean gets its nitrogen from the air. It even binds nitrogen in the soil, which can then be absorbed by subsequent crops. This means that less fertilizer is required overall.
Bumblebees and bees also enjoy growing broad beans. These bloom for almost two months. In addition, faba beans attract parasitic wasps with their nectar, which can reduce pests such as aphids.
The duel – vegan egg vs. chicken egg
Whether eggs are actually considered healthy is always questioned. Not least because of the high cholesterol content: one egg contains around 280 milligrams of cholesterol. Although it is not yet entirely clear scientifically how cholesterol consumed through food actually affects cholesterol levels, the German Heart Foundation recommends that no more than 250 to 300 milligrams of cholesterol should be consumed daily. Too high a cholesterol content in the body promotes arteriosclerosis and thus cardiovascular diseases. What is certain is that you don't have to worry about your cholesterol levels when you consume our Easy To Mix Vegan Egg, as our egg made from the broad bean is cholesterol-free. It is also low in fat, while the chicken egg has 11 grams of fat per 100 grams. This is also reflected in the calorie content: the Easy To Mix Vegan Egg has 65% fewer calories than a chicken egg.
Many conventional hen eggs come from huge battery hens. The operators often do not see the laying hens as animals, but rather as a means to profit, which results in a lot of animal suffering. In almost all cases, even organic eggs do not come from happy chickens (find out more about this topic here) . On the other hand, you can enjoy our Easy To Mix Vegan Egg without feeling guilty! Because it is cruelty-free!
So what are you waiting for? Try it out and see for yourself. The Easy To Mix Vegan Egg is not only cholesterol-free, lower in fat and calories with the same protein content, but also cruelty-free, vegan, sustainable and tastes simply delicious as an omelet or scrambled egg!
