“I’ve been excited about partnering with Mind Blown since I first tasted their shrimp a few years ago,” said Celebrity Chef Spike Mendelsohn. “As a chef, I expect plant-based seafood to taste just as good as traditional, premium quality seafood products before we can showcase them in our restaurants.  Given their history in the Chesapeake Bay seafood business, the Mind Blown team clearly shared my vision and has produced some incredibly tasty products! This crab cake is the perfect product for our guests at PLNT Burger. We toss it in classic Old Bay and serve it with crisp, green leaf lettuce to satisfy that summertime craving we all have for fried seafood, but doing it in a way that is healthier for us, and better for our oceans.  What better way than a tasty sandwich to celebrate World Ocean Month!”
