About the company:

WE BELIEVE THERE’S A BETTER WAY TO FEED OUR FUTURE.

COMPANY DESCRIPTION

Thus, we make plant-based meats that allow families to eat more, not less, of the traditional dishes they love while feeling great about the health, sustainability, and animal welfare benefits of plant protein. Our goal is to bring exciting change to the plate—and Beyond.
