what we
stand for
For the chef, it offers easy handling and fast preparation, consistent size and shape, zero waste, fully cooked; simply heat to taste and desired crispness for breakfast, lunch and dinner menus.
For the consumer, it’s a lower cholesterol choice than leading pork, chicken and turkey bacon. It’s easy to chew and easy to pronounce the ingredient list.
Best of all, it’s not mechanically separated poultry. It’s all beef.
