Beyond Meat has introduced its latest plant-based food innovation, Beyond Beef, which is designed to have the meaty taste, texture, and versatility of ground beef but with the added health and sustainability benefits of plant-based meat. The product is expected to launch in retail later in 2019.
According to the company, Beyond Beef offers 25 percent less saturated fat than beef, with less than 6 grams per serving, and is made with a blend of pea, mung bean, and rice proteins that provide a texture that mirrors the chew and juiciness of ground beef. Beyond Beef offers 20 grams of protein per serving, which the company says is more than beef.
Beyond Beef's binding systems enable the product to be shaped into a variety of forms, including meatballs, sliders, and tacos. The product contains no antibiotics, hormones, soy, gluten, or genetically modified organisms, and is anticipated to be both Kosher- and Halal-certified.
