The cream cheese alternatives come in four flavors.
Melt Organic, a Boise, Idaho-based plant-based food company specializing in vegan butters, says it launched a line of “Cheesy Spreadables.” The products are all vegan, Non-GMO, OU kosher and Rainforest Alliance Certified Organic; they also are top eight allergen-free. Powered by fermented plant protein, the products have 21 grams of protein per 7 ounce tub — 50% more protein per serving than the leading dairy cream cheese.
“Cheesy Spreadables” come in four flavors: Original, Queso Picante, Everything and Cool Garlic Herb, the company says. Using pea protein fermented by shitake mushroom mycelia, the gold standard for highly digestible plant-based protein, the products have improved solubility, a creamy texture and a delicious taste.
