Planted (quality vegan meats from Switzerland)

Planted is a European brand (from Switzerland) of foods, widely sold in UK grocery stores. This one is setting the standard for ethics, sustainability and taste of faux meats. The brand’s ambassador is meat-loving wrestler Christian Stucki. A passionate amateur chef, he has made this brand uber-popular (the chicken is even now sold in Swiss Subway restaurants).

The range includes:

• Steaks and burgers
• Chicken schnitzel and nuggets
• ‘Pulled pork’ and Bratwurst sausages
• Kebabs and ‘vegan duck’

Avoid sausages for young children and choking hazards (for older children, slice lengthwise and lengthwise again into strips). Recycle packaging at supermarket bag bins, if your kerbside doesn’t recycle.

Don’t give leftovers to pets, garden birds or wildfowl (due to onion, garlic, salt).
