Beyond Meat, a leader in plant-based meat, announced the foodservice launch of Beyond Pepperoni and Beyond Chicken Fillet, building on their recent roll out of Beyond Steak. All three products deliver on Beyond Meat’s commitment to offer plant-based proteins that are indistinguishable in taste from animal meat, but with the added health and environmental benefits of plant-based meat.
Beyond Pepperoni
More than ever, consumers are looking for plant-based pepperoni at their favorite restaurants, with 53% of polled consumers agreeing they would increase visits to a restaurant if plant-based pepperoni were available. The FABI award-winning Beyond Pepperoni features crispy, curled edges and mouthwatering flavor to enhance any menu item, from pizzas to sandwiches, pastas and more. Made with simple, plant-based ingredients with no GMOs, cholesterol, soy or added hormones and antibiotics, it delivers an authentic pepperoni experience with 50% less saturated fat and 30% fewer calories than a leading beef and pork foodservice pepperoni.
Beyond Chicken Fillet
Crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, Beyond Chicken Fillet expands on Beyond Meat’s award-winning chicken portfolio to help foodservice operators meet the growing demand for plant-based chicken fillets (+1,098% compared to a year ago). Made with simple, plant-based ingredients and boasting 17g of protein per serving, Beyond Chicken Fillet allows diners to enjoy dishes from a classic chicken sandwich to a comforting chicken parm without GMOs, soy or added hormones and antibiotics. With 72% of surveyed consumers indicating strong interest in purchase intent for menu items featuring Beyond Chicken Fillet and 56% stating they would visit a restaurant more frequently if it offered the product, Beyond Chicken Fillet delivers what consumers crave.
Beyond Steak
Beyond Steak, plant-based seared tips, provides a satisfying, juicy and flavorful experience enjoyed by meat eaters and flexitarians alike. Receiving rave reviews, restaurants can add the FABI award-winning Beyond Steak to their sandwiches, bowls, salads, stir fries, fajitas, tacos and more. Made with simple, plant-based ingredients, Beyond Steak is low in saturated fat, has 21g of protein, and no GMOs, cholesterol or added hormones and antibiotics. Beyond Steak has been recognized as “A Healthier Steak” by TIME in their 2022 Best Inventions and received the Good Housekeeping Nutritionist Approved Emblem.
“We’re excited to introduce these new and incredibly delicious plant-based innovations, crafted with versatility and operational ease in mind,” says Dawn Lockwood, VP and Head of Foodservice at Beyond Meat. “Beyond Pepperoni, Beyond Chicken Fillet and Beyond Steak expand Beyond Meat’s foodservice product portfolio, giving operators more options to incorporate on their menus and new ways to offer in-demand, better-for-you plant-based dishes to customers.”
