What a great new company. Their Spero cheese alternatives are delicious, (all the staff loved them), and they offer free mini sample tubs, recipe cards and $1 off coupons. Although they are offering Goat samples, we didn’t order any Goat, let us know if you’d like us to bring that in for you. (Emily and Florence particularly liked the Smoked!) Saving our earth. Sunflowers use 96% less water than almonds, 97% less land than cashews, 99% less Co2 than dairy.

People want plant-based dairy. But, today, plant-based dairy is prohibitively expensive due to the use of nuts as the primary ingredient. 

At Spero, we make dairy from seeds. 

Why seeds? Almonds/cashews (nuts), which comprise the majority of the dairy alternatives industry today, will never create cost comparable products with dairy because they are too expensive and they’re hard to scale. They take too much time, space, water, and human labor. Seeds are 7-8x less expensive and grow 50-70x faster than nuts.

By using truly scalable ingredients and cutting-edge, pending-patended technology, Spero is the first company making plant-based dairy cheaper than traditional dairy products, taking dairy alternatives mainstream.
