The new mushroom filling is packed with incredible Mexican flavours, and is the first new filling to be introduced to the GYG menu since 2018.
GYG developed the Shredded Shiitake Mushroom protein filling in collaboration with Aussie real food innovators, Fable Food Co, and it’s seasoned with GYG’s distinctive authentic Mexican flavours including smoked paprika, garlic and onion.
The plant-based protein filling is available in restaurants across the country, and is said to have no artificial flavours, no added preservatives, no unacceptable additives, and no added colours.
You can try GYG’s new shredded mushroom filling across the entire menu range with the exception of breakfast items, and it comes in any form, including bowls, burritos and nachos.
What’s more, GYG has also introduced a brand new taco, The Chimi Shredded Mushroom Taco, to celebrate the launch of the filling.
Made with a fresh soft shell tortilla, filled with shredded mushroom, iceberg lettuce and topped with GYG’s signature Pico de Gallo and Chimi Mayo, the new taco will cost you just $5.
Steven Marks, GYG Founder and CEO said: “For years and years, GYG have been tasting and trialling every plant-based option on the market and we’ve finally found the one with Fable.”
He went on to say that the Shredded Shiitake Mushrooms is “so full of flavour”, and “absolutely everyone is going to love” the new Chimi Shredded Mushroom Taco.
“We’re thrilled to partner with GYG and help expand their incredible menu with our Fable Shredded Shiitake Mushrooms,” Michael Fox, Fable Co-Founder and CEO said.
