Šmakoun is a protein-based food made from pure egg whites. It is used as a substitute for other foods when preparing low-calorie dishes. The original unflavored product contains almost no fat, sugar, cholesterol, or gluten. Its energy value is approximately 210 kJ per 100 g. In its original form, it is practically tasteless and readily takes on the flavors of other foods. This protein slice is sold under the trade name Šmakoun. This new type of food was developed in the Czech Republic. A patented technology is used to process egg whites into this form. Separate Šmakoun products are also made in various savory and sweet flavors.
