NEW YORK, March 6, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- Daring Foods, the first plant-based chicken made from only five non-GMO ingredients, has announced today its first retail partnership with healthy grocer Sprouts Farmers Market.

Starting today, 10-ounce pouches of original Daring pieces will be available for $9.99 at more than 340 Sprouts Farmers Market locations across the country. Daring is gluten free and includes 20 grams of protein per serving. This milestone offering is the first non-breaded, plant-based chicken alternative to be introduced at Sprouts.

"With this launch, we are excited to bring Daring pieces to dinner tables across America," said Ross Mackay, Co-Founder and CEO of Daring Foods. "Daring is leading the charge as the second-generation, plant-based meat alternative that is made from simple ingredients, is easy to cook, and matches the texture and taste of chicken. From cooking to the very first bite, customers will see that we are not an alternative, but an upgrade."

Daring selected Sprouts as their first retail partnership because of its reputation for offering fresh, natural and organic products at affordable prices. The healthy grocer has been a driving force for innovation in natural and organic foods since its inception and has introduced customers to numerous niche brands.
