The Best Vegan Products Canada 2024

Noble Vegan Jerky Original Flavour is a standout in the vegan snack world, combining smoky flavours with a satisfying chewy texture that closely mimics traditional beef jerky.

Originally a meat-based company, Noble Jerky made a complete switch to plant-based products to embrace sustainable agriculture, which has led to a significant increase in their revenue and popularity​.

Each serving is packed with 14 grams of non-GMO soy protein, making it a great source of plant-based protein​. Noble Jerky is also free from artificial preservatives, trans fats, and nitrates, ensuring a healthy and guilt-free snacking experience​.

Reese’s Plant-Based Peanut Butter Cups bring a vegan twist to a classic favourite. Made with oat and rice flour, these stay true to the iconic peanut butter filling but are enveloped in a creamy, oat-based chocolate that delivers a rich and satisfying taste​.

These cups have a slightly different texture compared to the original, with a firmer chocolate and a less sweet overall profile, which I think is a good thing​.

Launched in 2023, they mark Hershey’s commitment to offering more vegan options.

Only down side right now for us in Canada is that we have to order a case of 12 since they aren’t sold individually.

Soy curls are a key vegan product in Canada because they are a plant-based protein and they are made from non-GMO soybeans grown and harvested in the United States.

These pack 10g of protein in 3/4 cup and they have a chewy texture and a slightly nutty flavor, making them a great substitute for meat in a variety of dishes I use them as a chicken substitute.

They are also an excellent choice for those looking to reduce their carbon footprint, as soybeans are a more sustainable and environmentally friendly option compared to animal protein sources. If you are worried about eating too much soy please read this post.

They have a sweet and juicy flavour plus, by choosing organic, you can feel good about supporting sustainable farming practices.

Kraft has introduced its first-ever plant-based mac and cheese, known as Kraft NotMac&Cheese, which is now available in Canada and the United States.

This vegan alternative, developed in collaboration with the food tech company NotCo, features two flavours: Original and White Cheddar Style. It uses a combination of fava bean protein and coconut oil powder to replicate the creamy texture and rich taste of the classic Kraft mac and cheese, but without any dairy​.

The vegan version retains the familiar look of the original, with the cheese powder turning orange when mixed, although the sauce is slightly more liquid and sweet than the traditional version.

Additionally, this product is free from artificial dyes and is easy to prepare, just like the traditional Kraft Dinner

SILK Organic Unsweetened Soy Milk is a product that I use daily. I use it in smoothies, my coffee, oatmeal and homeade frozen ice cream.

I always get the unsweetened one because why add extra sugar when you don’t even tell the difference? This makes it a lower-calorie option and it’s also a good source of protein, with 8 grams per serving.

Plus, it is free from artificial colours, flavours, and preservatives.

Another vegan essential, Bob’s Red Mill Nutritional Yeast, can be added to just about anything. It gives a nice depth of flavour to my vegan dishes, and I also love that it’s packed with nutrients like B vitamins and protein.

The flakes are large and easy to sprinkle on top of salads, pasta, and more. Overall, I highly recommend this product to anyone looking to add a boost of flavour and nutrition to their meals.

Nutiva’s Organic Vegan Hazelnut Spread has a rich hazelnut flavour that is not too overpowering and is made with only a few simple ingredients including hazelnuts, cocoa, and coconut sugar.

It is also organic, making it a great option for those looking for a healthier alternative to traditional nutella spreads.
