Maple Leaf Foods launches new plant-based burger
The company's new line of products includes the Lightlife Burger, the Lightlife Ground, Lightlife Bratwurst Sausage, and Lightlife Italian Sausage.
The company said that the Lightlife Burger has 20 grams of pea protein with 0 grams of cholesterol and only 2.5 grams of saturated fat in a quarter-pound patty, compared to 80 grams of cholesterol and 9.3 grams of saturated fat in a quarter-pound patty made from traditional beef.
The Lightlife Burger includes ingredients such as high-quality pea protein, virgin coconut oil, and beet powder, "which work together to make a juicy and meaty burger," the company announced.
“With 40 years of leadership in plant-based food innovation, we understand taste is a priority for all consumers,” says Dan Curtin, President of Lightlife Foods. “We didn’t join the plant-based category overnight—we’ve long been pioneering the industry. Our new burger is delicious thanks to decades of culinary know-how, and we know we’ll be serving up an entirely better experience for consumers who want a break from traditional meat or whose palates are craving a new adventure. It’s not science—it’s just good food.”
