Since launching plant-based chicken-style nuggets, discs and patties, Simulate is now introducing plant-based boneless wings. The plant-powered hot wings are made with wheat flour, soy protein concentrate, soybean oil, yellow corn flour and water, and a sauce consisting of aged cayenne peppers, vinegar, sea salt and garlic powder. With eight grams of protein per serving, the meat-free wing alternatives make quick and easy snacks, appetizers and sizes, especially since they take 10 minutes or less to prep.
Simulate sets itself apart with plant-powered products that are more protein-packed and less fat than their animal-based counterparts, as well as 100% free of cholesterol. These new plant-based boneless wings have the potential to appeal to a wide range of consumers, including flexitarians who are open to consuming alternative protein sources.
