Best New Meat or Dairy Alternative

Foodies Vegan Pumfu

Are you ready for this? Pumkin seed tofu. Yes, we were as surprised as you might be, which is why Foodies Vegan caught our eye with its USDA-certified Organic Pumfu. Made with just pumpkin seeds and water, this minimally processed, allergy-friendly soy alternative has a similar texture to traditional tofu and picks up flavors just the same. We love this innovative vegan option to slice, dice or fry up for all your plant-based needs.

Plant Perks Plant-Based Cheeze Spreads

The dairy-free crowd and cheese lovers can finally unite around Plant Perks Plant-Based Cheeze Spreads—a darn good alternative to the real deal. While there are other plant-based "cheese" spreads on the market, we love that Plant Perks' are certified organic and feature fair trade cashews, meaning Plant Perks pays more for its cashew supply, ensuring all farmers in the supply chain get fair wages. Not to mention it's extra creamy, making it a great pair with crackers, veggies or on its own. This is a dairy alternative we can get behind.

Harmless Harvest Organic Dairy-free Coconut Yogurt Alternative

You probably know Harmless Harvest for its coconut water, but now it's expanding into the plant-based yogurt space. Moving toward its zero-waste goal, Harmless Harvest's dairy-free yogurt uses the same coconuts for its coconut water as it does for its yogurt which, by the way, are USDA-certified Organic. Low in sugar and featuring clean ingredients, the dairy-free yogurt is creamy with a touch of sweetness (but not too much), making it an excellent way to start your day.
