Image: Garden Gourmet Cheese & Ham-Style Crispy Twist package showing a vegetarian frozen food product in a clear plastic tray. The green and yellow branded packaging displays a golden-brown breaded cylindrical food item cut in half to reveal a cheese and ham-style filling inside. The package includes a pink “9/10 TASTERS LOVE IT” badge, “QUICK & DELICIOUS” label, and indicates the product is high in protein, a source of fiber, and made with wheat and 100% European soy protein. A Nutri-Score A rating and vegetarian symbol are visible, along with an expiration date of 29/07/2025.

I like that they state it on the package, makes me want to purchase their products more than alternatives with no origin specified for any ingredient.

        Wir verwenden nur sorgfältig ausgewählte Bio-Rohwaren für die Tempeh-Herstellung. Regionalität und höchste Bio-Qualität ist uns dabei sehr wichtig. Die Sojabohnen für unseren Tempeh stammen von Anbauflächen in Deutschland, Österreich und Italien. Die Süß-Lupinen beziehen wir zum Großteil von Landwirten aus Deutschland. Auch die schwarzen Bohnen kaufen wir so regional wie möglich. Deshalb sind in engem Kontakt mit Landwirten aus der Region, die Anbauversuche mit der Schwarzen Bohne machen. Wir sind sehr stolz darauf, dass wir bereits jetzt einen Teil der benötigten Ware aus regionaler Landwirtschaft beziehen können. Die Berglinsen stammen ebenfalls aus heimischem Anbau.

        Translation:

        We only use carefully selected organic raw materials for tempeh production. Regionality and the highest organic quality are very important to us. The soybeans for our tempeh come from farms in Germany, Austria and Italy. We source most of the sweet lupins from farmers in Germany. We also buy the black beans as regionally as possible. That is why we are in close contact with farmers from the region who are conducting cultivation trials with black beans. We are very proud that we are already able to source some of the goods we need from regional farmers. The mountain lentils also come from local cultivation.
