Armored Fresh Launches New Zero-Dairy Grated Parmesan and Zero-Dairy Kimchi Parmesan

McLean, VA (November 14, 2024) – Armored Fresh, an innovative food tech company, has announced two new additions to its zero-dairy lineup: Grated Parmesan and the world’s first Grated Kimchi Parmesan. 

Armored Fresh’s Grated Parmesan offers a rich, nutty flavor with a mild umami finish, making it an ideal topping for pasta, pizza, garlic bread, soups, salads, and more. This versatile, zero-dairy cheese provides a perfect alternative for those avoiding dairy and gluten. Grated Kimchi Parmesan, a unique twist on classic cheese, combines the spicy, umami notes of kimchi with the savory taste of Parmesan. It enhances various dishes like pizza, pasta, and tacos, offering an exciting new flavor profile. Sprinkle it on pizza as you would with red pepper and Parmesan, or pair it with hot honey for a sweet and spicy bite. 

Focused on quality, taste, and texture, Armored Fresh is dedicated to expanding its zero-dairy offerings to provide sustainable alternatives that deliver exceptional taste and versatility. During the development of Grated Parmesan, Armored Fresh innovated a patented technology that mimics the traditional process of grating aged cheese rather than using the typical spray-drying method. This allows the brand to achieve the authentic taste and texture of dairy Parmesan. Both Grated Parmesan and Grated Kimchi Parmesan reflect Armored Fresh’s commitment to creating unique and flavorful zero-dairy products in an accessible and sustainable way. 

“The zero-dairy market lacks truly flavorful alternatives,” said Rudy Yoo, Founder and CEO of Armored Fresh. “Parmesan is a household staple for many meals, and we worked hard to make sure our Grated Parmesan could match the texture and taste of classic cheese. Inspired by the idea of adding instant flavor and texture to meals, we created Grated Kimchi Parmesan. It’s unlike anything on the market, blending a new cultural flavor with Parmesan to elevate a classic sustainably.” 

With a team of skilled R&D specialists and experienced chefs, Armored Fresh continuously creates innovative zero-dairy products that match the flavor and texture of dairy cheese. Through multiple patented processes, these cheeses impress even the most discerning consumers by authentically replicating the taste and texture of dairy-based cheese. 

Like all Armored Fresh products, Grated Parmesan and Grated Kimchi Parmesan are non-GMO, gluten-free, and made entirely from plants. These two new cheeses are now available on the Armored Fresh website and will launch on Walmart and Amazon online before the end of the year.
