Reducing

Years ago, in an effort to reduce the amount of material going into our packaging, we discontinued adding an additional sealable lid to our 6 oz cups. It was one simple change WholeSoy could make to reduce before a yogurt cup even makes it into the hands of our customers. We also continue to research more sustainable materials so we can consider ways to reduce some more in the future.

Check Out a Meatout!

Written by Yesica on Monday, 19 March 2012. Posted in Advocacy & Activism

Events are happening all week!

Meatout began in 1985 as a grassroots diet education campaign to bring awareness to the benefits of a plant-based diet and promote meat and dairy alternatives for grocery stores, restaurants and other food service based companies. Today, hundreds of Meatout events are held annually on or around March 20th across the world. To keep the spirit alive throughout the year, Meatout Mondays have also grown in popularity and have even been adopted and encouraged by restaurants and cities like our own hometown of San Francisco, California!
