It looks a bit like chicken and smells a bit like chicken but it is not chicken at all, it is probably soy.

Sale of soy foods in the U.S. rose from 1992 to 2006 from $300 million to nearly $4 billion. This growth was on the heals of a massive advertising campaign devised to paint soy as a healthy alternative. However the combination of shrewd marketing and some serious truth stretching has resulted in some serious health complications.
