Consumer demand for ready-to-cook plant-based meat alternatives is pushing brands to go beyond traditional freezer offerings into convenient, refrigerated products. Retail sales of plant-based meat alternatives reflect a shift happening in a dynamic category, as consumers bypass frozen products in favor of refrigerated ones. 

The Sweet Earth® Awesome Bacon Burger is a smoky plant-based burger infused with vegan bacon bits. Made of textured pea protein, this plant-based burger contains 26g of protein per serving (27% DV) and is non-GMO project certified.

The new plant-based burger, which is made in Canada*, will be featured as part of Kelseys’ core menu within the “Burly Burgers” section starting June 3, 2019 at all 70 Kelseys locations across Ontario; St. John’s, Newfoundland; Moncton, New Brunswick; and Calgary, Alberta.

The Garden Gourmet Incredible Burger is 100% plant-based, with natural protein from soy and wheat. Natural plant extracts – beetroot, carrot, and bell pepper – help create the look of a beef burger before, during, and after cooking.

It’s a familiar refrain by now: Fast-casual is, yet again, the restaurant industry’s fastest growing segment.
