Once again New Zealand leads the way in plant-based innovations by being the only country to have Vegan Sausage Awards, which take place annually at the end of June, hosted with vegan restaurant The Butcher's Son, judging the country's best and to celebrate our growing love of and preference for healthier plant-based foods.
The stiff competition of some 36 entrants from around 20 different companies was judged by vegan comedian Tom Sainsbury and Food and Beverage Industry judge Aaron Pucci, who was keen to define the best taste, consistency and appearance of the winners.
We have 12 delicious winners from the awards today. You can be sure when you buy these sausages that your taste buds are in for a treat! “Our awards are showing Kiwis the best that vegan fare has to offer, so look out for those award logos on products and shelf labels”, Claire Insley from the Vegan Society said “when sausages taste this good, you don't need the meat and our winners are proving that.”
Supermarkets throughout New Zealand have noticed a huge 36% increase in plant-based product sales, across all product ranges, milks, meats, ice creams, cheese, burgers and of course, sausages, are all easily veganised and contain no cholesterol. As more people become concerned for their health, they are seeking to reduce their meat and dairy intake. 100% plant-based products are key to improving our nation's health and producers and supermarkets alike are rising to the challenge.
