Edible, but not quite for me
I received the Plantropy Jackfruit Pepperoni for free in exchange for my honest review. My family and I are not vegan or plant-based, so this was something completely new for me to try. I decided to keep it simple and used it to make a pita pizza. I’ve had plant-based products before, and while I’m usually open to them, I found that this one missed the mark for my personal taste. The flavor was a bit too far off from traditional pepperoni for me to really enjoy it. That said, it is definitely edible and I can appreciate the concept and ingredients—it just wasn’t something I found myself wanting to eat over and over again. I think plant-based eaters or those used to jackfruit alternatives may enjoy it more than I did.

Smokey
I tried this jackfruit pepperoni and was pleasantly surprised. When I heard that it was made with jackfruit, I expected it to be a sweet fruity flavour and not something that tastes like pepperoni. It seems that the spices in the jackfruit pepperoni were given a Smokey flavour to mimic pepperoni which was a nice touch. The only difference is that the pepperoni slices were easily breakable and some turned to mush and didn’t hold there shape.

Full of Smoky, Peppery Flavour!
I tried Plantropy’s Jackfruit Pepperoni and love how quick and versatile it is to cook with. It’s entirely meets up to it's advertisement of being fully vegan, cholesterol-free, soy-free, gluten-free, sugar-free, and sulphite-free, while still being high in fibre and protein. I used it to make a pizza-style toast in the air fryer one evening when I wasn't all that hungry and wanted a quick meal. It has a smoky peppery flavour that's honestly too much for me. Although it won't be one that I repurchase, I am keen to try other products from this brand, because I love the concept and how quick it is to use in meals and how versatile of a product it is.

Not the best - does the job.
I did not necessarily enjoy the taste of this pepperoni on the pizza. It does the job for sure and clean ingredients, cooks well and can be paired with different other ingredients.

Not Subtle Curry
I recently grilled up Plantropy’s Jackfruit Kebabs as a side dish during a backyard barbecue—and they ended up stealing the spotlight from the burgers.
These kebabs are packed with intense curry flavour—bold, aromatic, and unapologetically spiced. If you enjoy Indian-inspired dishes, you’ll appreciate the deep notes of turmeric, cumin, and chili that come through in every bite. Grilled over open flame, they develop a nice charred exterior while keeping their juicy, meaty jackfruit texture inside. While technically a “side,” they’re anything but background noise—expect them to draw attention at the table.
From a nutritional and dietary standpoint, these kebabs are a standout:
• Cholesterol-free
• Rich in fibre
• Zero trans fats
• Free from soy, gluten, sugar, and sulphites
This makes them a great choice for people with dietary restrictions or anyone looking to lighten up their grill game without sacrificing flavour. They're hearty enough to satisfy plant-based eaters and meat-eaters alike.
You can find Plantropy Jackfruit Kebabs at Zehrs, Real Canadian Superstore, and Goodness Me!, making them easy to grab for your next cookout or weeknight dinner.
In short, these kebabs offer bold taste, clean ingredients, and serious grill presence. Just be ready—the curry isn’t subtle, and that’s exactly what makes them memorable.
