Ethical, meat-free and fish-free foods launched by Redwood

Friday, 30 March 2012 2:54 PM

Ethical food firm The Redwood Wholefood Company is launching nine new lines, including fabulous fish-free ‘fish’ cakes and ‘fish’ steaks, both made from 100% natural plant-based ingredients. The range also includes new vegan pizzas, meat-free pastry products and a strawberry dessert made from nutritious pea protein.

Redwood’s new Making Waves Gourmet Fish Style Cakes and Fish Style Steaks offer a more ethical, sustainable and cruelty-free alternative to fish products at a time when there are increasing concerns about stocks and sustainability. The firm already makes best-selling Fishless Fingers.

Families with special diets to cater for may also like to try Redwood’s new meat-free and more-ish Sausage Rolls, made with the company’s award-winning Lincolnshire style sausages, traditional style vegetarian pasties and flavour-enhancing vegan ‘Parmesan’. Everything in the Redwood range is suitable for vegetarians and vegans, as well as people suffering from lactose or casein intolerance. Redwood products are also kosher certified and the company itself is halal process certified.
