Ripple Foods has become known for producing a variety of pea protein milk products, but it is now venturing into the creation of vegan half-and-half products.
The all-new vegan half-and-half flavors are set to be launched in Original and Vanilla flavors, featuring a base of plant-based oils that also happen to be rich sources of Omega-3 and Omega-6.
The creamy, plant-based products were developed to fill a void in the market for vegan half-and-half products, especially options that are rich in healthy fats and can be used in everything from one's morning coffee to cooking and baking. These new products from Ripple are set to be sold through Target and Whole Foods locations.
Ripple is also reportedly working on the development of its own variation on the classic Greek yogurt snack.

Trend Themes
1. Vegan Half-and-halfs - Vegetable oils can be used as substitutes for dairy-based half-and-half, leading to more plant-based options for consumers.
2. Pea Protein Milk Products - Pea protein can be used to create dairy alternatives that are both high in protein and sustainable in terms of farming and production methods.
3. Healthy Fats in Vegan Products - Plant-based oils, which are rich in Omega-3 and Omega-6, can be incorporated into vegan products as a source of healthy fats that rival the nutrient profile of dairy-based products.
Industry Implications
1. Plant-based Food - As more consumers seek plant-based alternatives to animal products, there is a growing opportunity for companies to create innovative substitutes using a variety of plant ingredients.
2. Grocery Retail - As supermarkets expand their offerings of vegan and vegetarian products, there is an opportunity for retailers to differentiate themselves by offering a wider range of plant-based options.
3. Food Tech - Plant-based proteins and oils can be used as ingredients in innovative food products that aim to replace traditional animal-based options, creating new opportunities for food tech startups and established companies.
