LOS ANGELES, Jan. 20, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- According to Food Network's Healthy Eats, plant-based diets are still going strong in 2021, however many people aren't ready to give up meat and other animal-based foods entirely1. Flexitarians savor the texture and taste of meat, which comes with high expectations for their meat alternatives. Founder & CEO of Longève, Douglas Kantner spent decades in the protein ingredients industry, working with animal-based proteins, before launching his line of Plant-Based Protein Crumbles and Breadless Crumbs designed for the flexitarian. When mushroom and bulgur burgers won't do, savvy home chefs are reaching for Plant-Based Protein Crumbles, a meat substitute that doesn't sacrifice texture or flavor to attain a healthy, sustainable way of eating.
