Mercy For Animals activists in Asheville, North Carolina delighted the crowds at this year’s 32nd annual Bele Chere Festival, the largest free outdoor street festival in the southeast, as they gave out free samples of delicious and nutritious vegan Delight Soy Nuggets and mouth-watering homemade vegan chocolate chip cookies.
This 3-day festival took place from July 23 through 25 and featured live music, crafts, fun and food. MFA advocates were perfectly poised to reach the 300,000-plus crowd with our vegan message of compassion for all beings. People were eager to enjoy the delectable taste sensations of the five different flavors of Delight Soy Nuggets: pesto, barbeque, Thai sweet ‘n sour, agave-garlic and spicy hot. These incredible mock meats are made and distributed by a North Carolina company and are non-gmo and organically grown! The texture and taste amazed all who lined up at our outreach booth to sample them.
MFA volunteers also distributed hundreds of pieces of literature, including our Vegetarian Starter Kits, to the very receptive festival attendees.
Delight Soy products are available at Earth Fare stores and Green Life Grocery in the Asheville area, and can also be found in other areas at Whole Foods and other natural food retailers.
