What’s better than a sun-soaked day down the shore, fueled by a packed lunch of a sandwich, pickles and chips accompanied by cold, crisp drink?
Warm weather approaching and sunny days have us dreaming of patio picnics and beach sandwiches accompanied with a background of crashing Atlantic Ocean waves — yet, as a vegan, you might be missing Wawa subs or the local deli sandwich.
Fortunately, there’s a new, innovative, and completely plant-based way to get your fix of deli-style meats — and, best of all, the ingredients are short, simple, and clean so you can fulfill any craving without sacrificing taste or your health.
Introducing: Prime Roots Meats. Now, you can have all your old favorites — think an Italian meat lover’s sub, turkey club, ham and cheese, and more — that are as delicious as they are good-for-you and the environment.
Let’s start with the ingredients. First, what sets Prime Roots Meats apart from other plant-based alternatives: They’re Koji-based — and they do not contain allergens, cholesterol, gluten, soy, GMOs, artificial ingredients, nitrates, antibiotics, hormones, artificial flavors or preservatives.
Better yet, they have the same taste and texture you loved in traditional meats — without harming animals or your health.
Plus, if you’re tracking your protein and trying to minimize the amount of processed foods in your lifestyle, read on.
Next, what exactly is Koji? This ingredient, which is comparable to mushroom roots, is grown through simple fermentation, similar to the process of making beer or wine. Koji only takes 2-3 days to grow, and nearly produces 0 byproducts.
It's taken in its whole and purest form, then combined with plant- and fungi-derived ingredients to make plant-based alternative meats that feel, look, and, most importantly, taste just like the conventional animal-based version.
Prime Roots meats are unlike other plant proteins (such as soy, pea, gluten) which have to be isolated, modified, and heavily processed in order to create that familiar “meat-like” texture.
Now, what you really want to know — how do they taste? Simply put, delicious and exactly like what you likely remember from your pre-vegan days. Prime Roots Meats have an option for whatever you’re craving, from deli-style meats to bacon to pepperoni:
Classic Smoked Koji Ham
Classic Smoked Koji Turkey
Cracked Pepper Koji Turkey
Black Forest Koji Ham
Koji-Salami
Hickory Koji-Bacon
Sliced Pizza Pepperoni
Find them in stores and restaurants near you. By the slice, handful or on your — vegan — charcuterie board, they’re sure to satisfy any palate. Cheers to bringing them to your outdoor adventures all season long!
