**Standing Strong Amid Rising Food Costs** Canada’s Food Price Report 2025 has highlighted some significant challenges: food prices are projected to rise by 3–5% next year, adding up to $801 more to the average family’s annual grocery bill. For millions of Canadians, already facing food insecurity, this marks yet another hurdle in accessing affordable, nutritious meals. The report outlines the drivers behind these increases, from climate disruptions and labour shortages to currency fluctuations. It’s a reminder of how interconnected and vulnerable our food systems can be. At Henry’s Tempeh, we understand how important it is to make plant-based options accessible. With this in mind, we’ve worked hard to ensure that our prices have remained steady through 2024, and we plan to continue this approach into 2025. We know every bit helps during times like these. While food affordability is a growing challenge, it’s also an opportunity to double down on sustainability, innovation, and policies that can make our food systems more resilient.

About us
Henry’s Tempeh Inc. has been producing handcrafted, artisanal tempeh since 2002 in Kitchener, Ontario. Henry’s Tempeh is the ideal first and favoured choice for fresh (never frozen), fermented tempeh. Specially catering to the health conscious consumer, Henry’s Tempeh ensures the highest quality organic, gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, fermented, and cultured meat alternative, while providing an entirely natural, and minimally processed tempeh, with absolutely no preservatives added! Our unique fermentation process breaks apart the hard to digest parts of the soybeans making our product much easier on the stomach than other soy food products. With double the protein of tofu, and six times the fibre, it’s no wonder why tempeh is known as the “superfood of soy foods.” Our much sought after and most popular Original Tempeh makes for a versatile and well-textured whole food in any kitchen, with a traditionally nutty flavor that is firm and chewy in texture. Easily sliced, cubed, crumbled and marinated, Henry’s Tempeh also comes in Kasha, Basil and Red Pepper flavours. All contain the same high protein and all the essential amino acids! Henry’s Tempeh has become a staple in health food stores, markets, and grocery stores, and is featured on many menus in restaurants, cafes, food trucks, and caterers.

**What Does Tempeh Mean to You?** Here’s a fun thought to kick off your day: If tempeh could speak, what would it say about you? 🌱 Would it call you its kitchen sidekick, someone who always knows how to turn a simple brick into a masterpiece of flavors? Would it proudly declare itself your sustainability partner, quietly helping you make choices that benefit the planet with every meal?Or maybe it sees itself as your creative spark, inspiring you to try bold new recipes, experiment with global cuisines, or just reimagine what plant-based eating can be. The beauty of tempeh is that it means something different to everyone. For some, it’s a way to fuel their health goals with clean, nutritious ingredients. For others, it’s a small but powerful way to live in harmony with the planet. And for many, it’s simply about savoring food that tastes great and feels good. But let’s turn the tables for a moment: What does tempeh mean to YOU? Is it a reminder of your commitment to mindful eating? A little bit of joy in your daily routine? Or maybe even a symbol of how small changes—like choosing plant-based protein—can make a big difference? Share your thoughts in the comments, because sometimes, it’s not just about the food—it’s about the story we create with it. 🌟 Whether it’s about health, sustainability, creativity, or connection, tempeh is so much more than a simple ingredient.

**A Tempeh Thought Experiment** Let’s set the scene: You’re stranded on a deserted island. 🏝️ No grocery stores, no takeout, just you, the ocean breeze, and a chance to get creative. Now here’s the challenge: You can have one ingredient, one cooking method, and one cooking item. What do you choose? We’re tempted (or should we say 'tempeh-ed') to keep things simple: 🌱 Ingredient: Tempeh—because it’s sustainable, packed with protein, and versatile enough to fuel island survival. 🔥 Cooking Method: A beachside fire, for that irresistible smoky flavor. Who says survival can’t be delicious? 🌴 Item: A cast-iron pan—because let’s face it, even on a deserted island, we’d keep things gourmet. But we’re curious—what’s your ultimate survival combo? Would you go for tempeh tacos roasted over a driftwood fire? Maybe you’d plant a mini vegetable garden and pair it with some perfectly grilled tempeh skewers? Drop your wildest (or most practical) ideas in the comments. Who knows, we might just learn something new—because if there’s one thing food teaches us, it’s how to adapt, thrive, and create in any situation. 🌟 Ready to dream up your island menu? Let’s hear it below! #CreativeCooking #ProteinPower #PlantBasedLiving #SustainableChoices #PlantBasedAdventure
