Hearty Plant-Based Chilis

Gardein is Introducing Canned Chili with and Without Beans

— February 26, 2021 — Lifestyle
The perfect plant-based chili has just the right balance of textures and Gardein is introducing two new canned varieties to suit a range of different preferences. Both varieties of the Gardein Plant-Based Chili are made with the brand's plant-based "be'f," a meatless beef alternative, and they boast up to 28 grams of protein per can.

The Gardein Plant-Based Chili with Beans is the more protein-packed option but the No Beans variety promises to be just as hearty.

These canned comfort food staples have the potential to be warmed and eaten as-is or enhanced with a few fresh vegetables and other ingredients when the recipes are used as bases. The vegan-friendly chili meals promise to make quick and easy weeknight meals, especially in a pinch.
Trend Themes
1. Plant-based Convenience Foods - Opportunity for companies to capitalize on the growing trend of consumers seeking plant-based options in the convenience food aisle.
2. Meat Substitute Innovation - Advancements in meat substitute technology provide a lucrative opportunity for companies to create more authentic and sustainable meat alternatives.
3. Protein-rich Plant-based Products - A shift towards protein-focused plant-based products offers a disruptive opportunity for companies to create high protein and nutritious options for health-conscious consumers.
Industry Implications
1. Canned Goods - Canned food manufacturers have the opportunity to develop plant-based options to meet the growing demand for convenient, shelf-stable meals.
2. Meat Alternatives - Opportunity for meat alternative companies to innovate and expand their product lines to offer protein-rich options for consumers seeking plant-based alternatives.
3. Meal Kit Services - Meal kit delivery services have the opportunity to incorporate more plant-based options into their offerings to meet the growing demand for convenient and healthy meals.
