The partnership between A&W and Beyond Meat has taken another exciting step forward.
Starting today, Beyond Meat Nuggets are available at A&W, offering customers a crispy plant-based nugget option.
Beyond Meat promises that the nuggets offer the same taste and flavour as a traditional chicken nugget, but deliver 18 grams of plant-based protein per six pieces.
“Many Canadians are looking for plant-based options, but they don’t want to compromise on taste,” said Tom Newitt, VP of marketing at A&W Canada.
“We have been on a search for the best, most delicious plant-based nugget and are excited for our guests to try our new Beyond Meat Nuggets.”
Deanna Jurgens, Beyond Meat’s chief growth officer, said the new menu addition at A&W couldn’t come at a better time.
“We’ve doubled down on plant-based chicken this summer, just as consumer demand for chicken is skyrocketing,” explained Jurgens.
“Following the success of our partnership on the Beyond Burger, we’re proud to be working with A&W Canada to debut Beyond Meat Nuggets in Canada.”
The nuggets are available as a six- or 10-piece order and there is an option for the A&W Kids’ Pack as well.
