All Y'alls Foods Cinnamon Churro Jerky

The plant based jerky combines Texas flavor with Mexican tradition

All Y'alls Foods, a Texas-based mission-driven company in plant-based proteins, announced the newest addition to its lineup: Cinnamon Churro Jerky. Showcasing the brand's sense of adventure and ability to think outside the box, the new jerky flavor has its roots in Texas and Mexico.

All Y'alls Foods is committed to providing premium quality plant-based protein snacks. An essential element of this is its use of whole non-GMO soybeans, which can be rare in the industry. Customers can count on the snacks to be protein and fiber-packed, and gluten- and cholesterol-free. Crafted with close attention to culinary detail, the Cinnamon Churro Jerky offers a sensory journey mirroring Texas and Mexico's vast and varied landscapes, a region celebrated for its food.

Beyond its taste, Cinnamon Churro Jerky represents a commitment to sustainability and animal welfare. All Y'all Foods' plant-based jerky products utilize only 10% of the water, land, and fuel required for animal-based proteins, offering a more environmentally friendly option. What may also surprise many is the plant-based protein formula used by All Y'alls is more nutritious than animal protein. Their plant protein contains higher levels of protein, calcium, magnesium, and iron than beef. This has made plant-based jerky a favorite with athletes who want to keep protein high while respecting the environment. A portion of every sale supports Rowdy Girl Sanctuary, the first cattle ranch turned vegan animal sanctuary in Texas, where they currently care for 135 animals, 70 of those being bovines. 

Cinnamon Churro Jerky is available in limited quantities only through the All Y'alls Foods website.

Armored Fresh Expands Distribution for its Melty, Zero Dairy Almond Milk American Cheese Slices

Armored Fresh, a Food Tech company specializing in alternative dairy products, announced an expanded retail distribution for its Almond Milk American Cheese Slices in conventional and natural grocery stores. New retail partners now carrying the melty zero dairy slices include, Fresh Thyme Market, Town and Country Foods, and Fred Meyer stores.

One of primary barriers to consumer adoption of plant-based cheeses is the sacrifice in taste. Armored Fresh has dedicated teams of R&D professionals and chefs who have cracked the code on a new kind of plant-based cheese. Vegan food often receives criticism surrounding its taste, and Armored Fresh recognizes the importance of flavor when it comes to food. In order to change the perception of plant-based cheese and establish a new status quo, Armored Fresh is raising the bar in terms of expectations for dairy free cheese. Armored Fresh’s team of chefs have crafted a new range of zero dairy cheeses that are in a class of their own and replicate the taste, meltiness, and aroma of traditional cheese. The company uses a technique that mimics the process of creating traditional dairy cheese, substituting plant-based milk and plant-based lactic acid. This gives Armored Fresh's cheese a soft texture comparable to that of traditional cheese and its characteristic fragrant flavor.

Armored Fresh is a global startup that specializes in making alternative dairy products. With a mission to help people in their health and wellbeing journeys, Armored Fresh combines cutting edge technology and ethical innovation to create plant-based dairy products that are nutritionally equivalent to dairy cheese. While Armored Fresh is always aiming to improve the taste and texture of plant-based cheeses, a key tenet to its mission involves creating dairy alternatives that have an equivalent or greater nutritional value to that of traditional dairy cheeses. With this mission, Armored Fresh is currently developing ways to add additional protein to its cheeses to set a new industry standard for nutritional intake in plant-based cheeses.
