Dr. Praeger

Dr. Praeger's creates products that contain only the finest ingredients that consumers can easily recognize, including vegetables, herbs and spices. Do Dr. Praeger's products have MSG? No, all of Dr. Praeger's products are MSG free. Are Dr. Praeger's Chickenless Patties vegetarian? I noticed that the list of ingredients includes "natural chicken flavor." The natural chicken flavor ingredient in Dr. Praeger's Chickenless Patties is yeast-based, and does not include chicken or meat. We know our vegetarian customers rely on us to provide straightforward products that meet their lifestyle needs; therefore, we would never include a meat ingredient in a product that is advertised as vegetarian. We do not currently produce any meat products in our facility (although we do produce fish products). Which of Dr. Praeger's products are gluten free? Dr. Praeger's has a special line of products geared towards those who can't consume gluten. This includes Dr. Praeger's Gluten-Free Potato-Crusted Fishies, Potato-Crusted Fish Fillets and Potato-Crusted Fish Sticks. In addition, Dr. Praeger's Sweet Potato Pancakes, Gluten-Free California Veggies Burgers and all Littles varieties (spinach, potato, sweet potato and broccoli) are also gluten free. Look for the green stripe across the top of our boxes to indicate that the product is gluten free; if the stripe is red, the product contains gluten. We test our gluten-free products periodically to ensure that they are indeed free of gluten. Why do your package labels indicate that products are processed in a facility that also processes fish, soy, milk, wheat and eggs? We include this information to provide full disclosure of the fact that all of our products are manufactured in a facility where these ingredients are present. The equipment is thoroughly cleaned prior to manufacturing products that don't contain these ingredients in order to prevent cross-contamination.
