Beyond Meat has expanded its plant-based chicken portfolio with the introduction of two new products.
Featuring a crispy, golden brown coating, Beyond Chicken Nuggets and Beyond Popcorn Chicken can be prepared in the air fryer in just a few minutes.
The new offerings are made from a blend of faba bean and pea, and contain 0mg of cholesterol and 14g of plant-based protein per serving.
Beyond Meat chief innovation officer, Dariush Ajami, said: “We’re always exploring new plant-based protein sources that deliver the taste and texture of their animal protein equivalent and are proud that by using faba bean protein we’ve been able to create a portfolio of absolutely delicious plant-based chicken products with no added soy, a key differentiator for our Beyond Chicken products within the category”.
The nuggets and bite-sized popcorn pieces are launching at Kroger, Walmart and other retailers across the US.
