 Hood River, Oregon, January 2011— A few decades back, a product called “Tofurky” came into the lives of many, landing on their Thanksgiving table. www.tofurky.com
This product, made of soy but providing a high protein, cholesterol-free, non-meat dish that tasted like turkey, brought vegetarians back to the fold. That mission is being continued today by offering delicious, nutritious vegan pizzas in three bold flavors: Cheese, Pepperoni and Italian Sausage with Fire Roasted Veggies. Turtle Island Foods, the makers of Tofurky®, have made it their goal that "No pizza eater be left behind!" Here’s a description of what you can find at your grocers and/or favorite health food store right now: Tofurky Cheese Pizza: Stretchy, melty, gooey cheese. For many, it’s the hardest thing to give up when trying to transition to a vegan diet. Enter Tofurky, the folks who made Thanksgiving safe for turkeys and relaxing for vegetarians. They’ve teamed up with Daiya™, the makers of a new dairy-free cheese, the first 100% vegan cheese to hit the market with an authentic melt, texture and flavor. This delicious cheese alternative can be found on top of a zesty garlic tomato pizza sauce and a thin whole wheat crust. Tofurky Pepperoni Pizza: Until now there has never been a vegetarian pepperoni pizza available in your local grocery freezer case. Under extreme pressure, Team Tofurky might whimper but will reveal nothing about how they achieved the delicious pepperoni taste. Take a bite of history and enjoy the first vegan pepperoni pizza to hit the freezer case. Tofurky Italian Sausage Pizza: Can one pizza really bring agreement to the meat versus veggie argument? The Tofurky folks said “Yes!” First they smothered their thin, whole wheat crust with a layer of zesty garlic pizza sauce and shredded Daiya dairy free cheese. Next they piled on chunks of our hearty Italian Sausage with Sun Dried Tomatoes and Basil to give this pizza a satisfying meaty chew. Finally they added their own blend of fire roasted veggies for a flavorful punch. For almost 30 years the people at Turtle Island Foods have worked to create delicious, nutritious, convenient and affordable vegetarian food that make a difference in people’s lives and have a minimal impact on our environment. Located just one hour east of Portland, the folks at Turtle Island make their vegetarian products in small batches using only the finest organic and natural ingredients. No preservatives, MSG or other artificial ingredients are added to their products. All products are kosher, vegan, and made with organic soybeans and/or organic tofu. Turtle Island Foods is a family owned and operated company. SOURCE: Turtle Island Foods
