[Asia Economy Reporter Lim Hye-sun] Pulmuone Health & Living announced on the 27th that it will launch three types of plant-based snacks using tofu called ‘Amio Natural Snacks.’
‘Amio Natural Snacks’ are pet snacks made from Pulmuone’s representative product tofu, which aims for healthy and wholesome food, and ingredients such as insects, which are gaining attention as animal protein with low carbon emissions. The product line consists of three types: ‘Tofu Nuggets,’ ‘Tofu & Fish Nuggets,’ and ‘Insect Nuggets.’
‘Tofu Nuggets’ and ‘Tofu & Fish Nuggets’ are pet snacks primarily made with Pulmuone tofu, incorporating tofu rich in plant-based protein to provide a mild taste while supporting pet health. ‘Tofu Nuggets’ are vegetarian snacks exclusively for pets, made with tofu along with various vegetables such as sweet potato, pumpkin, carrot, and broccoli. ‘Tofu & Fish Nuggets’ contain tofu and threadfin bream fish, shaped like fish to add visual interest for pets.
According to the company, substances that cause dietary allergies in dogs are known to be beef 32.4%, dairy products 17.9%, and chicken 15.2%. ‘Amio Natural Snacks’ use tofu and insects as alternative protein sources to replace familiar animal proteins such as beef and pork, reflecting both the demand from pet owners for new protein sources and the value consumption trends of the MZ generation who consider the environment.
