Laura McQuarrie — December 15, 2022 — Lifestyle
Rind is the vegan cheese brand that's known for its award-winning Carrot Cheese Slices and it has plans to introduce new kinds of plant-based cheeses in the next year, including vegan cheeses made with red bell peppers and parsnip. "Several years ago, while developing and testing recipes, we discovered that parsnip worked very well for cheese,” Rind co-founder Dina DiCenso told VegNews, “And red bell pepper is not only a favorite vegetable of Rind’s staff but [it] also lends itself to more savory cuisine.”
Notably, the upcoming vegan cheese alternatives from the brand make the most of plant-based ingredients that are sourced in the United States, and they are set to be produced in the country as well. The brand also has its eye on additional veggies to expand its product portfolio in the future.
