Field Burger Release, July 2014

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE – July 7, 2014

SEATTLE, WA – A new era in the veggie burger world is dawning now that the FieldBurger has entered the culinary landscape.  Gone are the days of the dry, machine formed veggie hockey puck.  Here is a juicy, satisfying burger made with whole barley, fresh carrots, garlic, onions & celery. Each FieldBurger is formed by hand in the Company’s new state-of-the-art plant in South Seattle.

 

FieldBurgers have already made a splash with sports fans across the nation and raised the bar for stadium food – now the Company has made them available to grocery retailers as of July 1^st, 2014.

“All of the best gourmet burgers are made by hand, and it was time to make a vegetarian version.” Says Field Roast founder David Lee. “We tested them out at stadiums and ballparks in Seattle, Cleveland and San Francisco to make sure we had something that would satisfy sports fans.  We are really happy with what we’ve created.”

 

Word of mouth and accolades have continued to grow as the FieldBurger expands to select sports stadiums and food shows across the country. The FieldBurger won VegWorld’s award for “Best New Vegan Product” at Natural Products Expo West last March. It was also served at the foodie-esque grand tastings at June’s Food & Wine Classic in Aspen. Most recently, The Field Roast Grain Meat Co. celebrated the grand opening of its new plant in South Seattle by grilling hundreds of free burgers for the general public.

“Just ate your new hand-formed burger…that was the best burger of my life. Juicy and SO much flavor. Can’t go back to Boca or any of the other brands now.”
