New Food Find: Qrunch Burgers are Allergy-Friendly, Gluten-Free and Vegan

These quinoa veggie burgers are soy-free, wheat-free, gluten-free, nut-free, egg-free, dairy-free, corn-free, fish-free, shellfish-free, meat-free and are made from organic ingredients.

Founding partner Jim Adams of Qrunch Foods has shared with KFA that "QRUNCH does NOT contain any of the "top 8" allergens. Nor are any of those items used in the gluten-free facility where QRUNCH is produced."

The company will soon be offering a new four-pack box and a new flavor, Spicy Italian.

Check the company's store locator to find where to buy these veggie burgers.

Both are full of flavor and not spicy.

"Green chile" - both lids liked
"sweet curry" - little kid (3.5 years) liked, but big kid (6.5 years) did not

From what I can tell on the Qrunch facebook page, these look like they were released on April 15, 2013.

And the review is in ... the adults liked the "Spicy Italian" Qrunch burgers, but they were too spicy for our little kids.

The new four-pack boxes are on the shelves at Whole Foods Markets in Rocky Mountain. And introducing our new flavor, Spicy Italian!

And the taste test results are in!

Both kids (2.5 and 5.5 yo) said "yummy!" then asked for seconds and asked that I put Qrunch on the shopping list.

My review - nice crunchy exterior, overall good texture & liked the flavor.

I picked up some Qrunch burgers to try & plan to offer them to the kids for dinner tonight. They were in the freezer section near other "veggie burgers".

Complete ingredient list:

organic millet, organic quinoa, organic coconut oil, organic onion, organic carrots, organic broccoli, organic spinach, arrowroot starch, organic apple cider vinegar, psyllum seed powder, kosher salt, organic garlic, non-GMO canola oil

I'll report back after we do the "taste test" ...

I really hope these become available in more areas, or at very least for online shopping! I really don't care for soy or mushroom based fake meats, plus most aren't gluten free anyway, so I am really excited about this!
