Sundial Foods has just announced that they raised a $4 million seed round to bring their plant-based whole-cut chicken wings to the vegan market. The plant-based chicken product includes the full experience of eating a chicken wing with skin, meat, muscle, and bone.

The brand got funding from well-known companies such as Nestle and Food Labs. With such significant funding, these vegan chicken wings are expected to be available to order in restaurants in the spring of 2022

Sundial’s proprietary technology has allowed it to create an extremely realistic meat alternative with the same taste and texture as real meat. The fact that it includes all of the parts that a chicken wing would make it unlike anything else on the vegan market.

Sundial co-founder Jessica Schwabach said, “Our goal is to make meats that replace the butcher, so our product can be enjoyed as a center-of-plate experience. We want to give consumers—whether vegetarian, vegan, flexitarian, or meat-eating—a plant-based meat-eating experience that’s interesting, crave-able, and versatile.”

No news has been given about whether or not the wings will be available to purchase in grocery stores. But many US restaurants will start to serve them in 2022, so hopefully, they will expand to grocery stores as well.
