Our products are crafted by a small-knit group of diverse individuals from the South Seattle area. We take pride in using high-quality ingredients sourced directly from local suppliers.

Our Mission
Here in the Pacific Northwest, people take ecological choices seriously. With animal agriculture as one of the world’s leading causes of climate change, choosing a plant-based diet is more important than ever. We aim to make that transition easy, fun, and delicious by crafting hearty breakfast sandwiches and burritos to share with you and other cafes. By opting for one plant-based meal a day for a year, you save almost 200,000 gallons of water and the pollution equivalent to about 3,000 miles driven in your car (roughly LA to NYC).
We believe in dignity for animals. While ninety-four per cent of Americans state that livestock deserves freedom from abuse and cruel conditions, 99% of them are raised in factory farms, facing hellish conditions. By eating a vegan meal, you are saving animals from that nightmare.
Additionally, choosing vegan food is beneficial for your health. Studies have shown that a vegan diet can protect from coronary heart disease; those who eat plant-based are also at a lower risk for all types of cancer, as compared to those who eat meat-heavy diets. Many vegetarian foods, such as tofu, legumes, and non-dairy milk products, have similar amounts of protein to animal foods.
By serving Based Foods, you empower your customers to make decisions that improve the climate, health, and community.
