At Natural Products Expo East 2018, Vegan Rob's will be branching out into a new category with its frozen Protein Burritos. Like its other offerings, this new product collection is plant-based and powered by protein sourced from water lentils and algae.
The frozen burrito products are set to introduce consumers to inventive globally inspired flavors, such as Pad Thai, Ramen Noodle, Shiitake Mushroom and Mashed Cauliflower, each of which is wrapped in a gluten-free tortilla made with sorghum.
As well as being able to look forward to finding these Protein Burritos from Vegan Rob's website and participating retail stores, consumers will also reportedly be able to have the functional burritos delivered to them, heated, in partnership with an Uber-style company.
