"We are excited to continue to grow our offerings and provide people with the alternative protein options they seek for meal or snack-time with beloved flavors."

Sweet or Spicy? New Flavors Let Everyone Win

The new poppable Plant Based Bites pack a delicious flavor punch straight out of the oven or microwave. While dipping sauces are always a plus, the bites are already sauced and ready to be enjoyed.

Covered in a sweet yet smoky sauce, the Sweet Barbecue Flavored Plant Based Bites bring bold barbecue flavor and are perfect for your next family dinner or tailgate party. The Buffalo Style Plant Based Bites are seasoned with cayenne pepper, ensuring a tangy, spicy kick in every bite that will elevate your next appetizer spread.
