Three Generations of Plant-based
We have three generations of plant protein experience. Since the 1980's, Don Lee Farms® has made blended proteins, including first-to-market burgers made with extruded plant-based proteins made to mimic the taste, texture and nutritional profile of beef. Today, we continue to drive industry trends with continuous innovations of our beefless and chickenless proteins under our Better Than Beef® and Better Than Chicken® brands and under brands of our partners.
