Indian food-tech start-up Novolutions is exploring [plant-based alternative meat snacks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/accro-products) in New Delhi with the launch of [Just Dig In!](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/just-meat-chicken)

From meatballs and nuggets to kebabs and spicy fingers, the brand delivers full-flavor products with the intention of making animal-free foods more accessible. Taste and texture were primary considerations for the brand and it speaks to young, early adopters who are hungry for change. Some of the tantalizing 100% plant-based products that can be found in the range include Oriental Meatballs and [Chilli Cheese Nuggets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tater-cheezz-nuggets).

Just Dig In! is looking to expand its distribution network outside of Delhi and introduce its Indian-Chinese fusion snack range to an even broader consumer base. As Just Dig In! founder Somesh Behera sees it, "We feel today’s niche is tomorrow’s mass."
