Chew Bot
Frequently Asked Questions
We keep things clean and simple — using ingredients you can actually pronounce. Think non-GMO soybeans, nutritional yeast, onion, garlic, carob bean, sea salt, and real spices. No mystery chemicals and no hidden fillers — just wholesome plant-based ingredients crafted to taste like the meals you grew up loving.
Our fried products do contain wheat in the batter to create that crispy, golden texture everyone loves.
And thanks to soy’s natural phytoestrogens — plant compounds that help support balance in the body — you get nourishment along with incredible flavor.
