A serial entrepreneur by nature, Jason Rosenbaum co-founded Actual Veggies in March 2020 after he personally revamped his diet and realized that, while grocery aisles were full of “better for you” imitation meats and veggie burger options, all were either highly processed, frozen, bland, or loaded with preservatives.

He set forth on a mission to create a brand that offers better, healthier and real plant-only veggie burgers. As CEO, he is responsible for driving the strategic vision of the brand and its product line and is focused on elevating and educating consumers about vegetable/plant-only burgers.

He and co-founder Hailey Swartz are also responsible for driving the brand through current and existing retail and foodservice channels.

About The Burgers

In our interview with Jason, I mentioned that I like to think about the next wave of plant-based products as “plant-based 2.0,” meaning that it’s not just enough to be meatless; being healthy seems to be more in focus now.

Actual Veggies patties are not only 100% veggies but they are also:

  • Gluten-free
  • Soy-free
  • Nut-free
  • Preservative-free
  • Kosher

These burgers are definitely raising the standard for what is possible!
