Why use JUST Egg instead of Eggs?

Just Eggs are an awesome plant-based egg alternative made from mung beans.

In addition to being plant-based, Just Eggs are way more sustainable: they use 98% less water, 86% less land, and 93% fewer CO2 emissions than chicken eggs!

Plus, JUST Egg’s nutritional stats are pretty impressive too. It contains 67% less saturated fat and more protein than a chicken egg. It’s also free of cholesterol and full of good-for-you polyunsaturated fat.

Just Eggs come in a bottle and can be found in the egg section in many grocery stores. You can search here to find it near you.
