Indiana Vegan Original

Plant-based, no compromise. Indiana Vegan Original is built on a protein-rich blend of pea, sunflower, pumpkin seed and fava bean — slow-dried, seasoned with Indiana's signature profile, and finished to deliver real jerky texture and bite. Made for people who want all the satisfaction without any animal product.

The texture is the part that surprises people. It pulls and chews like dried meat rather than tearing like a crisp or dissolving like a protein bar, and the seasoning is the same savoury, lightly smoky profile Indiana uses on the beef. Eaten blind, it is far closer to the real thing than the category usually manages.

How Indiana makes it

The plant protein blend is mixed, seasoned, formed into strips and slow-dried, with smoke flavouring and garlic doing the heavy lifting. Packed in a protective atmosphere and shelf-stable — do not refrigerate, and once the bag is open, finish it within a couple of days.

Who it is for

Vegans and vegetarians who have missed having something to chew on, anyone cutting down on meat without cutting out snacks, and mixed households that are tired of buying two of everything. Try the Hot & Sweet next if you want chipotle heat with it.
