Description

MorningStar Farms Grillers is a food product specially designed for those seeking vegetarian and vegan alternatives to traditional meat. These are burgers and other products based on plant proteins that mimic the flavor and texture of beef, ideal for use in a wide variety of recipes such as burgers, sandwiches, and grilled dishes.

Origin: MorningStar Farms is an American brand, part of the Kellogg Company, which since the 1970s has been dedicated to developing accessible and tasty vegetarian and vegan foods. Its products are very popular in the United States and are beginning to gain presence in other Spanish-speaking countries.

Properties: These burgers are made primarily from plant proteins, such as soy and wheat, and are low in saturated fat compared to red meat. They provide a good amount of protein and fiber, and are usually fortified with vitamins and minerals such as iron and vitamin B12, which are important for those following diets without animal products. Furthermore, they are a sustainable option from an environmental standpoint.

Synonyms in Spanish from Latin America: Although "MorningStar Farms Grillers" is a brand name, equivalent terms for similar products may be found in different countries, such as hamburguesas vegetarianas (vegetarian burgers), hamburguesas veganas (vegan burgers), hamburguesas de proteína vegetal (plant protein burgers), or simply hamburguesas vegetales (vegetable burgers). In some places, they are also known as hamburguesas de soya (soy burgers) or hamburguesas de carne vegetal (plant-based meat burgers).
