San Francisco 49ers and Levi's® Stadium Run New Menu Option Play: Incogmeato® by MorningStar Farms®

Incogmeato® and MorningStar Farms® designated the official plant-based proteins of the San Francisco 49ers and will donate up to one million plant-based Incogmeato® Chik'n Tenders to Feeding America®.

BATTLE CREEK, Mich., Sept. 8, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- San Francisco 49ers games at Levi's® Stadium this season will feature a new way for fans to tackle hunger as Incogmeato® and MorningStar Farms® have been named the first-ever official plant-based protein of the NFL franchise.

The in-stadium experience keeps getting better at the home venue of the 49ers, with a new menu of next-generation plant-based protein that looks, cooks and tastes just like the real thing. From sizzling burgers to brats and sausages, fans can find these plant-based proteins throughout the stadium on the member-inclusive menu and at the Incogmeato kiosk in the Zenni Zone on the upper concourse. For fans at home, it's easy to re-create their Levi's Stadium order with a backyard barbecue roster of Incogmeato stadium favorites that score extra points for flavor, all without the meat.

Not only is Incogmeato® and MorningStar Farms® partnering with the 49ers to bring delicious plant-based protein menu items to Levi's® Stadium, the brands are also continuing their commitment to making plant-based protein more accessible to all with this exclusive team partnership. An estimated 1 in 8 Americans are expected to face food insecurity in 20211, and food banks are experiencing a protein shortage. Incogmeato® and MorningStar Farms®, along with the 49ers and Feeding America®, is helping to close the protein gap at food banks. For every field goal the 49ers score, the brands will donate 30,000 Incogmeato® Chik'n Tenders — up to one million tenders — to Feeding America® food banks in the Bay Area.

"We are proud to be the official plant-based protein of the San Francisco 49ers and Levi's® Stadium. What you eat on game day is almost as important as the action on the field, so that's why our partnership is key to delivering what flexitarian 49ers fans want: all of the flavor with none of the meat," says Heidi Ray, Marketing Director, Plant-Based Protein Category of Kellogg Company. "Ensuring plant-based protein is accessible is an important initiative for us, so we are thrilled to be partnering with the 49ers and Feeding America® this season!"

"We are always looking for ways to bring our fans, our community and a premium food experience, together," said Kevin Hilton, 49ers Vice President of Corporate Partnerships. "That's why, partnering with Incogmeato® and MorningStar Farms® is a touchdown for not only our fans craving a delicious alternative to meat, but for those facing food insecurities in our region."

Hungry fans don't have to wait until they're inside Levi's® Stadium to give Incogmeato® a try. Find MorningStar Farms® and Incogmeato® at leading retailers like Safeway throughout the Bay Area and across the country.
