We create fermented foods that make animal products obsolete.
About us
Fermentation was the first human biotechnology to convert simple ingredients into incredible foods: milk into cheese, pork into prosciutto, grains into beer and bread. Plonts (formerly known as Tezza Foods) is a public benefit corporation that discovers and designs microbial communities to transform inexpensive plants into new categories of sustainable fermented foods. This approach allows us to create plant-based foods that are absurdly delicious and less expensive than animal-based counterparts. We are starting with the most resource-intensive and addictive dairy product: 🧀. Founded by two people making it up as they go, Plonts is supported by mission-driven investors and an incredible team of crazy smart people willing to do whatever it takes to build a sustainable world out there, and a very human organization here.

Who cut the cheese? Oh, that was us. 😳 And it came from plants, for the record. Thanks TechCrunch for the write-up about our launch. Go try Plonts at restaurants in NYC and SF! https://lnkd.in/gjtaBPHm

“Plonts reminded me that there’s a growing list of plant-based products that make me feel like I’m gargling leeches every time I say their names.” - Eater. Amen. We hope you never say "Plonts" with a straight face. https://lnkd.in/gddTmV4K

We created a cheese from plants that tastes like a cheese not made from plants. For those suffering existential climate burdens and those who just want to eat a decent plant-based cheese. Now watch comedian Kate Berlant melt away all your worries and our cheese with laser beams shooting out of her eyes. https://lnkd.in/g9Cqsf4g
