A Florida steakhouse chain is joining the fray by selling a $69 plant-based steak by Chunk Foods.
Charley's Steak House is billing itself as the first steakhouse chain in the US to add a plant-based steak to its menu.
The plant-based steak is so good that some staffers were fooled during blind taste tests, company Executive Vice President Clark Woodsby told Insider.
Last year, Beyond Meat's sales slumped as consumers turned away from plant-based meat substitutes.
To date, restaurant diners have experienced plant-based foods at fast-food chains like KFC, Pizza Hut, McDonald's, and Chipotle.
