Our take
In recent years, vegan alternatives to traditional meat products have gone from being a niche interest to a mainstream one. Tender is ringing in a new generation of alternative meat products that have the same texture, taste, and consistency as real whole cuts of meat.
Though their whole-cut meat products are similar to other companies like MorningStar Farms, Ozo and Gardein, these businesses use high-moisture extrusion, resulting in a dense protein slab. Tender’s ability to create hair-width fibers is a game-changer in the plant-based meat industry.
As Tender gears up to commercially launch their product in stores, while also expanding their number of partnered restaurants, they are on the right path to sustainably change the future of food.
