Many meatless chicken products come in the form of familiar products like cutlets or nuggets but SIMULATE shows that there's room for more creativity with its new plant-based patties in the shape of computer disc drives. The DISCS are made with a blend of soy and wheat and the unconventional shape of the product is played up by packaging that references nostalgic software boxes.
Just like the way software is updated, SIMULATE's products go through several iterations to provide consumers with the best possible alternatives to their animal-derived counterparts. Chicken 2.0 is said to have a 92.4% satisfaction rate and the brand sets itself apart by sharing release notes to keep customers in the loop for the sake of transparency.
