Bring Home the Bacon with La Vie

La Vie bacon is arguably the closest to the real thing the market has yet to see.

Their mission is simple yet profound: to make people switch from animals to plants with a smile and some delicious, finger-licking goodness.

The problem, as La Vie sees it, is the environmental toll of intensive farming, contributing to 14.5% of total CO2 emissions, 27% of land use, and the distressing reality of 77 billion animals being processed in 2021 alone. The solution, for La Vie, lies in transitioning to plant-based meats.

In comparison to traditional meat production, La Vie’s plant-based approach boasts impressive reductions in CO2 emissions, water usage, and land use.

At Plant Based World Expo Europe 2023, La Vie introduced plant-based ham. Featured in a sandwich format with melted cheese, La Vie ham matches the quality and taste of their renowned bacon, showcasing the company’s commitment to expanding its product offerings.

Buyers across retail, foodservice, and distribution are urged to pay close attention to La Vie as they continue to innovate. This company is not just adding products to your offerings; they are transforming expectations and delivering mind-blowing indulgences that resonate with consumers.
