# Meatless Sausage Raviolis Taste Republic's Plant-Based Sausage Ravioli is Made with Beyond Meat By Laura McQuarrie | Published 2021-11-17 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plantbased-sausage-ravioli References: [prnewswire](https://www.prnewswire.com/news-releases/taste-republic-introduces-ravioli-featuring-plant-based-sausage-from-beyond-meat-301426145.html) & [tasterepublicglutenfree](https://tasterepublicglutenfree.com/)  [Taste Republic's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/deli-slices) Plant-Based Sausage Ravioli is a free-from pasta that's made without gluten and without meat, since it uses plant-based Beyond Sausage Italian Crumbles from [Beyond Meat](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aromatic-plantbased-sausages) instead. Filled with cheese from Wisconsin, the ravioli is rich in protein and it makes for a quick, easy and nutritious meal. As a gluten-free pasta, the product is made with brown rice flour and meatless crumbles that mimic the taste and texture of their animal-based equivalent. This pasta product highlights both brands' commitment to high-quality ingredients and offering a range of food choices for people, regardless of their dietary needs and preferences. Brian Durst, CEO of [Tribe 9 Foods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/triple-g-tribe), the parent company of Taste Republic, says "Beyond Meat has accomplished for meat what we've done for pasta – to create an option comparable to its traditional counterparts." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 1.0/10 - Popularity: 7% | Activity: 12% | Freshness: 11% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Food](https://www.trendhunter.com/food) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Plant-based Meat Alternatives:** The rise of plant-based meat alternatives in the food industry provides an opportunity for entrepreneurs to create innovative products that cater to dietary needs and preferences. - **Gluten-free Products:** As the demand for gluten-free products increases, entrepreneurs can develop new products that cater to this growing market, expanding their customer base and revenue streams. - **Alternative Protein Sources:** As consumers seek out alternative protein sources, such as plant-based products, entrepreneurs can develop innovative products that are both sustainable and nutritious. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Food Industry:** As the food industry responds to the demand for alternative food choices, there is an opportunity for entrepreneurs to develop new and innovative products that cater to dietary needs and preferences. - **Health and Wellness Industry:** As more consumers seek out gluten-free and plant-based products for health and environmental reasons, there is an opportunity for entrepreneurs to develop innovative solutions and capture this growing market. - **Packaged Food Industry:** As consumers demand more convenient and nutritious options in packaged foods, there is an opportunity for entrepreneurs to develop new and innovative products that cater to this growing market. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Meatless Alternative Raviolis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buitoni-impossible-foods.md) - [Meatless Filled Pastas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/filled-pastas.md) - [Aromatic Plant-Based Sausages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aromatic-plantbased-sausages.md) - [Vegan-Friendly Mushroom Raviolis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-italian-bolognese-ravioli.md) - [Plant-Based Sausage Links](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beyond-meat-1.md) - [Vegan Ravioli Pastas](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vegan-spinach-cashew-ravioli.md) - [Meat Alternative Egg Bites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/veggies-made-great-1.md) - [Collaboration Plant-Based Raviolis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dellugo-this.md) - [Vegan Veggie Sausages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/plant-provision.md)
