At the time, plant-based alternatives weren\u2019t readily available in the country, but after just 18 months, they had already sold a whopping 9 million burgers and were ready to go global.<\/p>\n<p>With the growing popularity of vegan and vegetarian diets and the need to adopt more sustainable food practices, Future Farm has gained considerable popularity in 18 countries and continues to see growth.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u201cWe are no longer just a trend; we have become a reality from which positively there is no way back. People are increasingly looking for more sustainable food alternatives,\u201d says Marcos Leta, founder.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h4>What\u2019s The Secret?<\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-88107\" src=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Future-Farm-1x560-1-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"560\" srcset=\"https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Future-Farm-1x560-1-1.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Future-Farm-1x560-1-1-300x168.jpg 300w, https:\/\/test10.co.za\/C\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/12\/Future-Farm-1x560-1-1-940x526.jpg 940w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>Who would have thought that technology would be the driver of sustainable food production in the 21st century? Cutting edge food tech is the secret behind Future Farm\u2019s meatless meat. It tastes, feels and looks like meat, yet still uses exclusively natural plant ingredients \u2013 including chickpea, pea and soy protein, with beetroot as colouring.<\/p>\n<p>The idea is to woo meat-eaters to a more flexitarian lifestyle by creating a product that is as juicy, tasty and satisfying as their favourite burgers, and to reduce the global demand for animal meat. If you\u2019re a meat-eater, you\u2019ll hardly taste the difference and if you\u2019re a vegan or vegetarian, you\u2019ll never miss red-meat again.<\/p>\n<h4>From Nature, For Nature<\/h4>\n<p>As young Brazilians who can see first-hand the critical plight of the Amazon Rainforest, food-tech entrepreneurs Leta and Strechinsky are driven by concern for the environment, climate change and the depletion of natural resources.<\/p>\n<p>In developing Future Farm products, they insist only on using certified deforestation-free and GMO-free soy, peas and chickpeas, supporting farmers who are growing ethically as members of the Responsible Soy Association. This commitment to the environment, attached to a genuinely delicious product, connects with a fast-growing, like-minded following worldwide.<\/p>\n<p><em>Future Farm products are available at Checkers stores, countrywide.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/futurefarm.io\/\">futurefarm.io<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/futurefarm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Instagram<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/futurefarm\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Facebook<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/futurefarm_io\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Twitter<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Future Farm is driving a worldwide movement to eat less meat, where tech-driven, plant-based and just plain tasty alternatives reign.
