Regrained Receives Upcycled Food Certification
Vanguard of the upcycled food revolution recognized for its trailblazing leadership in creating a new ingredient category to help end food waste
ReGrained announced that its SuperGrain+® flour received certification developed by the Upcycled Food Association.
The United States alone generates over 20 billion pounds of brewer’s spent grain each year. After the sugar is extracted for brewing, this highly nutritious grain typically becomes food waste—representing a significant environmental footprint. ReGrained uses its patented technology, co-developed with the USDA, to safely rescue this food supply and craft ReGrained SuperGrain+®, an innovative and versatile ingredient. SuperGrain+® delivers a minimum of 3.5- times the fiber and 2-times the protein of whole grain flours. Every pound prevents the carbon dioxide equivalent of burning 1 pound of coal and saves over 300 gallons of water.
SuperGrain+® was the first of many ingredients developed for ReGrained’s food manufacturer and foodservice customers, with others including oats from milk production and pulp from juicing. Collaborating with these partners in its Upcycled Food Lab—from product concepting and menu strategy to prototype development and unmatched category expertise—ReGrained is the go-to upcycled food innovation platform for companies around the world.
