#170 - Pleese Foods: Authentic NYC-Style Pizza Cheese That’s Plant-Based and Allergen-Free
Listen now
Description
Kobi Regev is a passionate New Yorker who happens to be vegan. Over the past 5 years he has become an expert in the development and production of plant based cheese. Together with his wife Abev, they switched to a plant-based diet in 2014, and the one thing we missed more than anything else was grabbing a slice of pizza from their favorite restaurants.  As New Yorkers, they couldn't find any cheese alternatives able to replicate the authentic New York pizza experience. So, they decided to do something about it, and Pleese Foods was born. The mission? To make the most delicious and functional plant-based alternative to dairy cheese that meets the perfect trifecta of taste, texture and melt. Pleese Foods products are all natural, vegan, kosher and perfect for people avoiding dairy, soy or nuts due to allergies or dietary restrictions. Pleese® has been tested and approved by the harshest food critics, picky eaters and kids from all age groups. Both Kobi and Abev are beyond grateful to everyone that helped and supported them taking their passion for making amazing vegan pizzas at home and turn it into a national distributed product.
