With 51 strips per pound, each case goes a long way in value-conscious restaurants. This innovative product is crafted using sustainably-sourced red seaweed, providing a rich, meaty, umami flavor that is derived from nature. The seaweed is complemented by protein-rich chickpeas, a blend of natural spices and plant-based colors, and a sprinkle of sea salt for vegan bacon that looks, tastes, and cooks like pork bacon! This plant-based alternative takes less land and water resources to produce than conventional meat, and it's healthy, too. This product is lower in fat than traditional bacon and contains no cholesterol, making it a heart-healthy choice.

Bacon is a popular ingredient in breakfast, lunch, and dinner recipes, making this vegan version a must-have ingredient for your restaurant or cafe. Serve these plant-based strips alongside vegan egg dishes and toast to create a traditional breakfast spread, pile it high on sandwiches and vegan burgers, or include it in wraps to add a savory, umami flavor to your signature recipes! You can also chop it up to use as a topper in soups, salads, pizzas, and pasta dishes to infuse your recipes with meaty flavor. This vegan bacon offers versatile preparation options, making it a convenient addition to your kitchen. To prepare, preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit and cook for 2-3 minutes. It can also be cooked in a fryer heated to 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 10-15 seconds or on a lightly oiled skillet / griddle on low-medium heat for about 2 minutes each side. To make your bacon chewy, cook it a little less; for extra-crispy bacon, cook it a little longer! This bulk 5 lb. case includes 255 strips of vegan bacon, ensuring your establishment will remain well stocked with this delicious ingredient.

Umaro Foods is on a mission to create plant-based meat alternatives from an unexpected source: ocean-farmed seaweed. Seaweed farming is widely regarded as one of the most sustainable aquaculture practices. It requires only sunlight and naturally occurring marine nutrients, helps to remove excess nutrients from ecosystems that harm marine life, and can even help to mitigate the effects of ocean acidification. In addition to being a planet-friendly protein source, the seaweed that Umaro uses to make their products offers a uniquely rich, meaty, umami flavor that's created without the use of artificial ingredients. Umaro products are a great way to add sustainable options to your menu without compromising on flavor and texture!
