Beyond Meat Announces Major Recipe Shake-Up With ‘Healthier’ Ingredients

Beyond Meat has announced a major shake-up in its recipes, with the upcoming release of Beyond IV, the latest versions of its original Beyond Burger and Beyond Beef. This update promises improvements in taste, nutrition, and ingredients, with input from health and nutrition experts shaping the final designs. Key features include the use of avocado oil and a simpler ingredient list, making the new products healthier than their predecessors.

The Beyond IV products boast an array of plant-based benefits, including protein, good fats, fiber, and nutrients, while also being described as the tastiest and juiciest Beyond Meat products yet. The new Beyond Burger, for example, has 60 percent less saturated fat, 20 percent less sodium, and 21 grams of plant-based protein per serving. Beyond IV has also received recognition from major health organizations, being included in heart-healthy recipe collections and certified by the American Heart Association's Heart-Check program, Good Housekeeping, and the Clean Label Project.
