This certification assures customers that these products meet the Society’s strict criteria, ensuring they are free from meat, GMO-free, and produced without cross-contamination.
New Plant-Based Offerings
Among the newly accredited items are around 20 plant-based products, including the much-anticipated Iceland x TGI Fridays “melt-in-the-middle” no meat cheeseburgers. These innovative burgers feature plant-based cheese encased within a succulent no-beef patty, providing a delicious alternative for those looking to enjoy a meat-free meal without compromising on taste.
