Take part in a survey on the use of plant proteins and cheese substitutes

February 9/2026

Support research and tell us about your use of plant-based proteins and plant-based cheese-like products, known in Finland as “vuustot”! The survey is part of a research project by the Finnish Food Authority that investigates the food safety of new protein sources.

Anyone who eats plant-based protein products or plant-based cheese alternatives even occasionally, is welcome to respond. We also encourage responses concerning children. You may complete the survey on behalf of a child under 15 years of age.

Answering the survey takes about 10–15 minutes. You can respond to the survey in Finnish, Swedish, or English. You can respond until 31 March, 2026, via the link below: https://link.webropolsurveys.com/S/C9A88C40C40A20E1

The survey is anonymous, and individual respondents cannot be identified from their answers.

Once the research project is completed, the results will be published on the project’s website. More information about the project can be found at: https://www.ruokavirasto.fi/proteturva.
