Trader Joe's is making it easier than ever for consumers of all dietary needs to enjoy the delicious taste of fish with its new Gluten Free Battered Plant-Based Fish Fillets.
While the new Gluten Free Battered Plant-Based Fish Fillets do not actually contain any fish, they're made from an ingenious blend of king oyster mushrooms and jackfruit. This plant-based blend is then coated in a light, crunchy, gluten-free batter for that classic frozen fish filet experience. As Trader Joe's explains, "These totally vegan, gluten-free Fillets capture all the same flavors and textures you’d expect from a boardwalk basket of fried fish, all while containing no animal-derived ingredients."
Perfect for vegans, omnivores, and pescetarians alike, the new fish fillets offer a delicious entree or appetizer option for any night of the week.
