Nature's Fynd, a food company specializing in meat and dairy alternatives using nutritional fungi protein called Fy, has launched the world's first dairy-free yogurt made from sustainable Fy. The innovative product is exclusively available in the refrigerated section of Whole Foods Market stores across the nation.
This breakthrough in the dairy-free yogurt category avoids traditional ingredients like cow milk, nuts, oats, coconut milk, or soy. Nature's Fynd offers the yogurt in three enticing flavors: strawberry, peach, and vanilla. The yogurt boasts a thick and creamy consistency, distinguishing itself from the often gritty texture found in other high-protein and plant-based yogurt options.
Nutritionally, each serving provides 8 grams of protein and 4 grams of fiber, complemented by live and active cultures. The product is free from artificial flavors or preservatives, catering to health-conscious consumers. In terms of sugar content, the peach and strawberry variants contain only 8 grams of total sugar, while the vanilla flavor has 9 grams.
Notably, the Fy Yogurt is not only dairy-free but also nut-free, soy-free, and gluten-free, making it a versatile and allergy-friendly choice for a wide range of consumers. Priced at $2.29 per single-serve 5.3-ounce cup, Fy Yogurt joins Nature's Fynd's retail portfolio, which already includes Dairy-Free Cream Cheese and Meatless Fy Breakfast Patties.
The key ingredient, Fy protein, is cultivated from fungi with origins in Yellowstone National Park through the company's innovative fermentation process. At scale, Fy production requires significantly less land and water and emits fewer greenhouse gases compared to traditional agriculture, aligning with the brand's commitment to sustainability. Nature's Fynd continues to redefine plant-based alternatives with its cutting-edge products.
