To eat or not to meat

A vegetarian butchery in The Netherlands is reinvigorating market interest in the protein-rich lupin crop.

Jaap Korteweg’s vegetarian butchery in Den Haag is the first of its kind in The Netherlands.

An eighth generation lupin farmer, Korteweg hopes to reinvigorate market interest in the protein-rich crop.

The butchery was co-founded with chef Marco Westmaas and animal rights politician Niko Koffeman. It sells its own range of meat substitutes, as well as existing products.
