In Singapore, 7-Eleven launched an affordable series of 7-Select Impossible meals that are chef-crafted and ready to eat. All of the meals can be purchased for less than S$6, with options including the 7-Select Impossible Minced Meat Noodles, Spicy Pineapple Burger and Meatball & Mash. The range includes a mix of globally and locally inspired meals, such as the Mexican-style Spicy Wrap, the Western-inspired Shepherd's Pie and Rendang Onigiri, a rendition of a popular Japanese rice ball snack; notably, the latter is the first-ever Impossible convenience dish available for under S$3.
These budget-friendly convenience meals help to make meatless options more accessible and convenient than ever before, and they promise to be just as well received by consumers as the 7-Select Impossible Deluxe Burger, which was launched earlier this year.
