Meati debuts new crispy bites and cutlets

Meati Foods, a developer of mycelium-based vegan meat products, has introduced four new products to its Eat Meati range.

The new products aim to bring ‘delicious, convenient nutrition’ for easier mealtimes. They include Crispy Bites – the company’s take on a chicken nugget – as well as a Garlic & Pepper Steak, Spicy Crispy Cutlet and Italian Seasoned Cutlet.

The Spicy Crispy Cutlet offers the familiar crispiness from Meati’s original Crispy Cutlet, spiced with red pepper and cayenne. The Italian Seasoned Cutlet is a herb-forward juicy cutlet flavoured with rosemary, oregano and thyme.

Crispy Bites are available online now, while the other three products are available in special holiday bundles and for standalone purchase in December. Meati said it intends to make all four products available in retail locations.

Each of the products are created using Meati’s MushroomRoot ingredient, offering high protein and fibre content.

Scott Tassani, president and chief operating officer at Meati Foods, said: “It’s easy for nutrition to fall by the wayside in favor of convenience and flavour when consumers are constantly on the go”.

He added: “We’re looking forward to hearing reactions to each of these products geared toward convenient nutrition and the simple idea that flavour, nutrition and ease of cooking can be of equal prominence at the table”.
