ABOUT RISOFU
Risofu® is a new food creation and was first introduced in 2009 in the award-winning Bahama® Rice Burger brand. Risofu® is THE WORLD’S FIRST RICE CURD BASE MEAT ALTERNATIVE™ and is the base ingredient for new Spread Instead®. Maybe you didn’t know that tofu is a curd and a curd can be made from any bean or grain, not just soy. Risofu®, a rice curd, is the fundamental difference that separates itself from all other meat analogues. Original Ground Risofu® is also available, offering a truly innovative approach to the alternative meat category by giving restaurants, delis, and consumers at home the ability to create perfect vegetarian options without compromise. Vegans can enjoy it pure. Vegetarians can add back whatever they desire to it and flexitarians have the option to blend it with a meat of their choice for a satisfying 50% - 50% reduced meat diet and more.
Risofu® is created using Morini Brands gentle proprietary blending and fermentation method ensuring maximum nutrition and resulting in a clean, safe, and great tasting new food. Risofu® is 100% plant-based, free of soy & gluten and the top 8 allergens, non-GMO with no soy leghemoglobin (heme blood flavor), no synthesized ingredients from a lab, and glyphosate free.
