Out of the 18 ingredients on Beyond's website, some are familiar, like brown rice and salt. Others, like methylcellulose, are a little less so.

TLDR: lots of salt and artificial flavourings. But a lot of interesting chemistry goes into it too. There are annealing steps, and many other processes I don’t understand.

    Probably the salt. You could test if crisps or popcorn or such have the same effect.

    Or try drinking lots of water with it.
