Long John Silver’s, the largest fast-food seafood restaurant chain in the US, just launched its first plant-based menu item at select locations in California and Georgia. The chain is testing a plant-based crab cake and a vegan fish filet at five locations, providing a brand new form of plant-based protein in the fast-food market. The vegan items were developed by plant-based seafood pioneer Good Catch Foods.
Customers will be able to order the new menu options a la carte or as meals in Long John Silver’s new Plant-Based Platter consisting of two Fish-Free Fillets, two Crab-Free Cakes, and two sides. The new items can also be ordered as meals that feature the plant-based entree alongside two sides including French fries, green beans, and corn.
