Kikka Sushi has been a partner with Whole Foods for over 30 years and has recently said it is embarking on a “five-year mission to create vegan products that satisfy the most discerning tastes with authentic flavors and textures.” The company plans to do so by switching out all white sugar for vegan sugar to avoid bone char in all white rice products.
While Kika Sushi offers vegan selections currently, including vegetable rolls and salad rolls, they are hoping to begin to expand this. The Vegan by Kikka line will feature a vegan salmon and tuna created with the root vegetable konjac and agar. Konjac is commonly used in the production of plant-based seafood. The company also announced they will soon add dumplings and poke to their vegan selection.
The plant-based food market is booming, and research suggests it could make up 7.7 percent of the global protein market by 2030. With a value of $29.4 billion in 2020, experts suggest that the plant-based foods market could have a value of over $162 billion by the end of the decade.
