Ethics &
Sustainability

NUMU is made with all non-GMO ingredients, many of which are also organic.  Although NUMU is not certified organic, NUMU sources only the highest quality, ethically harvested, animal-slave free, non-GMO ingredients available (excludes anticaking agent used in trace amounts)

It takes approximately one gallon of milk to make one pound of dairy mozzarella. That one pound of mozzarella requires an estimated 1,950 gallons of water.  Plant-based cheese requires far less water usage which is overall better for the planet.


About

NUMU was inspired by a desire to help the planet and animals and a frustration with the bad vegan cheeses for pizza.  Our founder worked with leading New York city pizzerias to create the best plant-based mozzarella for food service.

COOKING & STORAGE

Use NUMU as you would use dairy mozzarella.  For pizza, we suggest using 4 – 5 ounces on a 12” pizza crust.

Each bag of NUMU has a date code printed on the package which indicates the best by date.  We would recommend sticking to that date.


INGREDIENTS & ALLERGENS

Soy is one of the secondary ingredients in NUMU.

Yes

Yes

Yes – NUMU does not contain any lactose.

We have found soy protein to provide a superior functionality and texture when compared to other plant proteins.  Our mission is the make the best plant-based mozzarella and we have found soy as a great vehicle to deliver on that promise.

No. There is a trace amount of anticaking agent made from potatoes that is applied after the cheese is shredded to help prevent the individual shreds from sticking together.  This ingredient is not non-GMO certified.

NUMU will be certified kosher by summer 2023.
