Dec 23, 2022
What are these meats made from? UNLIMEAT uses upcycled materials that fight food waste, including defatted soybean powder leftover from oil production and rice bran, a byproduct of brown rice milling.
Starting January 4, the brand’s plant-based Korean BBQ and two flavors of its pork (original sweet & smoky, which features a charcoal grilled rib flavor) will be available at 1,500 Albertsons locations nationwide. This deal greatly expands the distribution of these plant-based meats, which were previously available through online grocer GTFO It’s Vegan, H-Mart, and select grocery outlets.
“Partnering with Albertsons to offer our unique and delicious plant-based foods to a wider audience is a testament to the industry’s evolution and increasing appetite for more diverse offerings,” Ryan Chung, Head of International Business at UNLIMEAT, said in a statement. “We’re incredibly excited to bring our signature products to Albertsons customers, who deserve tastier and healthier plant-based options.”
South Korean brand UNLIMEAT is challenging the burger-centric vegan meat industry with its unique offerings. The company created Korean BBQ meats as a vegan version of brisket that can be prepared in a variety of ways from the pan to the grill. The company also makes vegan pulled pork—the company’s most popular product.
