Overfishing and population depletion is becoming a major issue around the world, so the Atlantic Natural Foods Tuno has been developed as a more sustainable alternative to canned tuna.
The plant-based tuna-like product comes in several flavor options and features a taste and texture that is very similar to conventional tuna to make it a sustainable alternative to choose for your recipes. The product will be launched in December at major retailers including Walmart, Amazon and Safeway to make it applicable for mainstream consumers to choose.
Speaking on the Atlantic Natural Foods Tuno, ANF Chairman and Founder Douglas Hines said, "We leveraged real experience in seafood, including partners around the globe combining 100+ years’ experience in harvesting and production, to develop a plant-based innovation that meets the highest standards for product excellence, but also at a family-friendly value that most shoppers can afford. Plant-based protein alternatives are our future, and we’re committed to delivering healthful, sustainable foods to future generations."
