We recently celebrated our 2 year anniversary of the Wicked Kitchen range! We’re extremely proud of what we’ve created and have loved seeing the range grow to more than 80 products, across Tesco U.K. stores in only 2 years!
Plant-based is here to stay! This is only the beginning and we’re thrilled to be leading the change within the biggest supermarket in the UK. We couldn’t have done this without you, your support and wanting to eat less animals! So thank you! Thank you for supporting plant-based foods, sharing across social media and for all the great feedback and love from all of you.
Tesco is home of the innovative, foodie Wicked Kitchen range and the more affordable, easy swap solutions of the Plant Chef ranges. They also showcase a myriad of other exceptional plant-based food and drink companies, hand-selected with a little help from our very own Chef – Director of Plant-Based Innovation.
To celebrate 2 successful years Tesco held a party at HQ, with some of our favourite plant-based brands and game-changers in attendance to celebrate and show colleagues that you can have it all on a plant-based diet. No sacrifices, no compromises!
We partook in ‘tuna’ style sushi and fish’ goujon sandos, WK sticky toffee pudding with Oatly ice cream, saucy pasta, and Amazeballs, WK and PC pizzas and everything in between. We shared the normality of lifestyle without having to eat animals and what it is all about! This event was all about getting stuck in a bit of everything (hello, samples), with a mix of our philosophy, 80% healthy 20% wicked golden ratio! We also had the awesome BOSH boys, Ian and Henry, down to do a demo and sign their new book, ‘Healthy Vegan’. And the all inspiring and lovely crew from Veganuary.
Of course, no Wicked party can be without a whole array of mushrooms! Our supplier, Smithy Mushrooms, brought the King Oysters and Cluster Browns. Showcasing the log growing method, that we are trialing. Mushrooms = the new meat!
