Whole Foods Market and Thrive Market are the first retailers to carry Good Catch—the shelf-stable, plant-based tuna—nationwide. The New York-based company offers 100 percent, plant-based products.
Co-founded by Chefs Chad and Derek Sarno, the company delivers the ocean flavor and texture of chunk albacore tuna. Available in 3.3-oz. pouches, ready-to-eat, plant-based tuna has:
- Omega-3 fatty acids
- A six-legume blend
- 14g of protein per serving
- Umami flavor from sea algae oil
- Free of gluten, dairy, GMOs
- Free of mercury, toxins, plastics and microfibers
- Safe for those with shellfish allergies
- Available in Naked in Water, Mediterranean and Oil & Herbs
“We’ve created a true tuna texture and taste profile,” said Chad Sarno. “Good Catch products are a one-to-one swap in any recipe that calls for tuna and can be the centerpiece of any entrée, sandwich, chowder or salad. Plant-based tuna is the culmination of our experience as plant-based chefs, combined with our passion for healthy eating as well as animal and environmental welfare. We’re redefining seafood for omnivores and plant-based eaters alike.”
It is the first plant-based brand that rivals animal seafood.
“Our mission is to disrupt the seafood category with plant-based options,” said co-founder and CEO Chris Kerr, “and give consumers everything like they like about seafood but without the mercury poisoning.”
