Quorn is actually Micoprotein and is just a brand name. Micoprotein is produced by a fungus called Fusarium which is grown in large industrial size tanks. The fungus is provided with essential nutrients and produces this protein rich Micoprotein which is extracted and flavoured to give it a taste like meat (Micoprotein alone doesn't taste of anything. It's high in Protein and is a great replacement to meat.
Hope this helps :D
