A food product having a variety of consistencies and flavors is described. The product may be made from ingredients that may not derive from animal sources or processes, and may have a consistency ranging from that of a pourable liquid, a cream-cheese spreadable solid or a tofu-like solid. The ingredients include a lipid, which may be soybean oil, soy protein, which may be soy protein isolate, and additional ingredients which may include colorings, emulsifiers, colloids, salt, food acids and sweeteners. The ingredients are mixed together at a high shear rate and then homogenized. The homogenization pressure determines the consistency of the resultant food product.
