22/11/2024, By PhyllisFantastic for dry skin. Does not leave and oily film on skin that does off on clothes like other oils.10/09/2022, By TarynOne of the best vegan biltongs in Cape Town. Myself and my husband are massive fans.30/06/2022, By CarlaI can see someone asking what type of meat it is after having a few bites. Mushrooms are remarkably versatile and make very convincing biltong.21/01/2022, By VeganschmeganThis is so good and tasted just as I remember biltong tasted!23/06/2021, By CleoI am OBSESSED with this product! I was never big into biltong as a meat eater but it was a quick and convenient snack. My only issue is that this product isn't available everywhere yet!!
If you're looking to give up meat (all of it or sometimes) I could not suggest trying this as a brilliant alternative!!
02/03/2021, By JessicaThis is utterly delicious, and totally satisfied my biltong craving. I'll be trying the chilli one next.30/01/2021, By ShahnaazBought it again after a long time and upset with myself for not having bought it sooner! Delicious and ideal snack size07/12/2020, By TanyaThis almost tastes like real biltong! I bought it for Christmas but already ate the whole bag!05/12/2020, By MarcelleRdiculous how similar this tastes to real biltong. I've been vegan for three years, so tasting biltong again was amazing. My omni co-workers couldn't believe it's not meat. The flavour really subtle. Awesome!25/11/2020, By DeeCouldn't belive how great this tasted. Doesn't taste like mushrooms at all. The flavour and texture is exactly that of the real deal, biltong. If only it was cheaper, I could treat myself more often to a packet of these.03/05/2020, By AnnaDeliciously spiced and chewy. A great veg 'biltong'. Mushrooms are also nutritious.25/04/2020, By ZoeWow,I was blown away by this mushroom biltong.It tastes and has the texture of real biltong. Will definitely be buying the big bag next time.23/04/2020, By DebbiTastes like biltong! Good salty snack to have for vegetarians. Will be buying lots more`of this!13/04/2020, By JasminI bought these for my Dad - he really enjoyed them! Coming from someone who is so particular about their bilong - I was pleasantly surprised.14/03/2020, By NicholaThis mushroom treat is truly delicious - spicy and chewy - the perfect snack.30/01/2020, By WandaThis is a great product! Amazingly like the real thing - texture-wise and taste. We really enjoyed this.25/01/2020, By BethI’m a carnivore, but I love this mushroom Biltong. So delicious and just wish I could get it in the USA.27/11/2019, By NikkiReally good. My first thought was that it smelled like the real thing. Was a bit chewy at first but after the second bite I couldn't tell the difference. I even had two meat eaters tell me they prefer this to the meat version.05/11/2019, By SimoneReally good taste and very biltong like, I was impressed. I ordered the plain but it still had a nice bite to it :)04/10/2019, By LishVery tasty and a great alternative to biltong for those like myself who are trying the vegan lifestyle. If you're a biltong lover gone vegan or vegetarian definitely give this a try, it's a bit pricey but worth it to satisfy those biltong cravings!23/09/2019, By JohannesIf you're looking to cut out meat or have cut out meat but love biltong this is a great substitute! Really delicious and tastes like a game biltong! It is on the pricey side but very nice06/09/2019, By BeeI received this as a free sample and I must say I really enjoyed this product. I do find if I chew it for too long, it does start to have the slightest mushroom flavour though.
Price is a bit steep as well.26/08/2019, By AmoreIn my pre vegan days I was a complete biltong lover so I obviously made it my mission to find the perfect alternative and let me tell you THIS IS IT! The texture and flavour is definitely spot on, it was like eating real biltong even my meat lover husband couldn't get enough of it. It's honestly pure deliciousness.23/08/2019, By JanaThis product is so amazing! Honestly the best biltong-substitute for my diet! Its chewy and has very good flavour!14/08/2019, By LynneAs a total lover of biltong I was really skeptical about it being biltong made with mushrooms. . Was I wrong, it is so so yummy. Love the stuff. Have just sent some to my daughter, who also LOVES it.13/08/2019, By SpankAs an ex meat eater who craved biltong the mushroom product satisfies my need18/07/2019, By NellyI received a packet as a sample with my most recent order. Was so pleasantly surprised. It's so good. The taste, texture, even the smell of it was like ltong. It even surprised my meat loving family. Will definitely be adding it to my monthly haul.26/06/2019, By ShaylinThis is amazing and although the chili one is my favourite, if you're not a fan of chilli and prefer a milder taste, then this is the one for you.31/05/2019, By ElvyI am the only vegan in my office, I managed to convinced my colleagues to try it and they absolutely love it. Needless to say that I bought it because it's absolutely yummy and wow...11/05/2019, By JordanaThe most delicious mushroom Hilton I have tasted. This stuff is addictive.03/05/2019, By GillianThis is the best mushroom biltong on the market in my opinion. Can not wait to buy more again <329/04/2019, By RozNice taste but can be very dry. Turn into cardboard when chewing for too long. Rather expensive.06/03/2019, By AntheaThey nice - but I think i have a few other brands of the mushroom biltong that I prefer. I would possibly not buy again.01/03/2019, By shereleThis is absolutely delicious and even my VERY recently vegan boyfriend tried them and couldn't keep his fingers out of the bag.
Such a pity though that I bought these at R66 and now see the price is at R133.
Love the product but probably won't be buying it again, at that price.04/02/2019, By Jelly BeanI had tried mushroom biltong once before from a chain food store brand, and with first mouthful I though that this Culture Mushrooms Oyster Mushroom Biltong was not as tasty... but that thought only lasted half way through my first mouthful!! This is such an awesome snack, so delicious, healthy and savoury. One serious problem with it - is that it is too moreish... seriously :-)04/02/2019, By BrittanyBought a small bag of this last time and loved it so much, have bought 2 large bags now! So delicious!29/01/2019, By LaurenSuper yummy! The perfect spicy snack for plant-based eaters. Definitely a treat worth trying.20/01/2019, By BrittThis is such a great meat-free alternative to traditional biltong! One of the hardest things for me to give up when I gave up red meat was biltong - BUT now, these little *pieces of heaven* fill that 'gap' perfectly!
They are quite pricey so only really buy them as a special treat!17/01/2019, By GillDelicious, great texture - I love this Mushroom Biltong. The only thing I missed when becoming vegetarian was biltong, but this yummy treat takes care of the craving.11/01/2019, By AnneWhere do i even begin... When I ordered this i was very skeptic about it. I thought to myself, how on earth can mushrooms taste anything like biltong, let alone smell or look like it. I was amazed when I took the first bite of this. Not only is the texture spot on, but the flavour is there, it's chewie, it smells like biltong, and it definitely looks like it too. I am so glad that there is now a vegan alternative, and I can enjoy this snack without feeling guilty. Thank you so much Faithful to Nature for listing this product, and thank you to the creators for such a quality product. I just ordered some more a few minutes ago.11/12/2018, By TriciaThis is an amazing product, if I could have it for breakfast, lunch and dinner I would. And it is cruelty free30/11/2018, By DanielleGREAT taste! gave my friends a bite and they thought the vegan started eating meat again ...tastes just like meat !27/11/2018, By MelThe first time I tried Culture mushroom biltong a friend gave it to me and I freaked out because I thought I was meat. I was pleased to find out it wasn't obviously and am now addicted yum.26/11/2018, By KathrynShared with my colleagues, they could barely believe it wasn't real meat... Eerily realistic but really tasty.15/11/2018, By EshaanaOMG! This was totally fantastic! I bought it after reading the reviews and I must agree with the one customer who asked when the 50Kg bags are coming out... LOVE IT!09/11/2018, By RoeaI tried to trick my meat eating family but they knew something was up. It really satisfied my biltong craving though! Delicious!01/11/2018, By AnonymousRecieved this as a sample. It really tastes quite similar to regular Biltong. Great for my meat free Fridays.31/10/2018, By TessaSo delicious! So well spiced, crispy, and tastes amazing. Will definitely be getting this again!22/10/2018, By StephOh my, this is delicious! For anyone struggling to find a healthy, satisfying, savoury vegetarian snack - you must try this!28/09/2018, By TalisaI just fed this to 10 colleagues who thought it was real biltong. They could hardly believe me when I told them it wasn't! What an incredible product. When do the 50kg packs come out? ;)22/09/2018, By TriciaA little bit of heaven, what more can I say?07/09/2018, By LinkiOh wow!!! Cannot tell you how grateful I am to discover this! I became vegetarian many years ago, but I used to be a huge meat-lover, but don't ever want to eat meat again. Biltong is probably the taste and texture I 'miss' most and I've tried to make things to substitute it, but have never come close. THIS stuff is better than I could have hoped for! After having to stop myself from finishing the entire 120g bag immediately after opening it, I'm instantly ordering more!
(Just as a side note, though - I had my dad, who still eats meat, taste it and he says it's "pretty good, but doesn't taste like biltong...or maybe like biltong that fell in some vegetables"...Just thought I'd put that out there, even though to me it tastes just like I remember biltong.)27/08/2018, By AtholAbsolutely terrific. Does not last long with my family of vegetarians.23/08/2018, By LienkieWow this is fantastic just what I was expecting.....will definitely buy again.18/08/2018, By NewgirlharperMy favourite treat!!! This is really yummy and I am so grateful for a chewy tasty vegan biltong alternative.25/06/2018, By RoxyI am so addicted to this biltong, the taste and the texture is almost spot on to that of biltong! It is just a pity that it is almost always out of stock.25/06/2018, By ElleReally divine and very addictive. Perfect for hiking trips as well.24/06/2018, By TriciaSuch a delicious treat to keep in your handbag for those moments when you need something delicious21/06/2018, By AlI was pleasantly surprised by this product. The taste and texture could very easily be mistaken with beef biltong, and I would strongly recommend this for those wanting to move away from meat, but still have the craving for some biltong. Will definitely be purchasing this again.13/06/2018, By RoxyFeels like biltong, looks like biltong, but unfortunately doesn't taste much like biltong09/06/2018, By RonThis stuff is insanely good - moreish and affordable! I've tried making my own mushroom biltong and could not come close!08/06/2018, By SandyOh my word, these are gorgeous! I had to try really hard not to eat the big bag all at once.19/05/2018, By SadieThis tastes just like how I remember biltong to taste like before going vegan. I actually had chills eating it, as the texture is so meaty. But the spicing is really nice and I hope to see this product in stores in the future as well.23/04/2018, By TessaSo tasty! Having been a vegetarian for 15 years, I haven't tasted anything like this in ages. Such great spice, texture & flavour - the only problem was it was finished too quickly!14/04/2018, By DebbieVery nice taste and texture. Looks and tastes a LOT like biltong.
Could be a bit more savoury for my taste, but it's really nice.
Will definitely buy again.27/03/2018, By NatQuite an interesting flavor - I enjoy it. Feels like biltong, doesn't taste all that much like biltong but worth a try
26/03/2018, By MelissaThe best mushroom biltong on the market at the moment. Has an amazing taste and texture.26/03/2018, By CaitSeriously good - even the meat eaters in my house were munching on this.19/03/2018, By POPSMy husband wasn't really interested when I suggested we tried this. Now he has his own stash!17/03/2018, By LeeLovely taste, purchased this for my husband who is vegetarian and he enjoyed it.17/03/2018, By Shauna AlikaAMAZING! Never thought I'd find anything in the line of "biltong" once I went the plant-based route, but this, this is absolutely delicious. It tastes more like biltong than mushrooms. 10/1005/03/2018, By OliviaIf you're vegan/vegetarian/curious please just do yourself a favour and buy these! They are my favourite vegan snack. I gave some to my non-vegan dad and he thought that it was just normal biltong. I love this stuff so much :)01/03/2018, By NicoleReally lovely. The packs are small but a little bit is quite satisfying.16/02/2018, By ZellieI had to contain myself from eating it all in one go. Very tasty and as close to real thing you can get.28/01/2018, By LiaAlthough the bag is small, the contents are delicious! Texture is very similar to biltong, I find that the flavour is a lot richer which causes me to go through the bag at a slower pace (which is great).22/01/2018, By EllaI was somewhat wary of mushroom 'biltong' but I thought it might be a great hiking snack- it was.. and so delicious, I completely polished it off.19/01/2018, By KarenYum Yum Yum!! It need to come in a bigger bag09/01/2018, By MichI was wonderfully surprised by the taste and texture of this mushroom biltong. I am not a mushroom fan, but I am most definitely a mushroom biltong fan. I found it a fantastic replacement for traditional biltong, BUT do not expect miracles. It does taste and feel slightly different, although, not so much that I felt cheated. Highly recommended for those seeking a vegan alternative!14/12/2017, By JesThis IS very convincing and took a short second for me to get used to the idea of eating “biltong” again. Mushroom (overall) works so well as a meat texture alternative and this biltong doesn’t disappoint. It trumps meat biltong because of its addition of the mushroom umami.14/12/2017, By JesThis isn’t very convincing and took a short second for me to get used to the idea of eating “biltong” again. Mushroom (overall) works so well as a meat texture alternative and this biltong doesn’t disappoint.

Will definitely buy again.11/12/2017, By KellyIt looks suspiciously meaty, it was almost off putting how real it looked lol. But very nice and tasty, nice snack08/12/2017, By AmeliaI was very excited to try this. Being vegan, I was slightly weirded-out by how much it resembled biltong in texture and flavour. My boyfriend loved it and inhaled the whole packet in a matter of minutes so it's been a big hit in our household. I also offered some to a very skeptical and carnivorous work colleague who was bowled over by the taste and texture.04/12/2017, By IlseIt is so good that even my carnist husband loves them! Was a bit weird to eat them in the beginning as a vegan, as the texture reminded me so much of meat.29/11/2017, By JordyMy family and I love this stuff. It is delicious and reasonably priced. Highly recommend.27/11/2017, By ChrisGreat tasting. Will definitely buy again. Like the 120g bigger pack.
Great taste and texture. Ideal for snacking or biltong replacement at parties.23/11/2017, By BridgetNice enough, but not enough to make me want to buy again. I prefer good quality meat biltong!15/11/2017, By FriaDo you want to eat the best biltong (meat or vegetarian) in the world??? Then eat culture mushrooms biltong. We recently had it on set while shooting THE BULL short film and everyone on set absolutely loved it. The beer drinkers, the hardy men, females, vegans, it was an absolute winner!!02/11/2017, By MellissaDelicious! I loved it. My only criticism is that it was a little on the 'wet' side, I prefer my biltong very dry. But otherwise fabulous.02/11/2017, By KatherineA perfect biltong replacement for vegetarians! So tasty, great texture, and really more-ish. Possibly not for hardened meat-eaters, but these meaty oyster mushrooms are definitely right for me.02/11/2017, By The Good Roots - AngeliqueYou can truly have it all on a plant-based diet and Culture mushrooms is yet again another perfect example of that. The texture (meaty) and taste (spiced to perfectly imitate bilting) is on point . Without a doubt my new favourite savoury snack.
