Black-Owned Everything Legendary Makes Waves With Vegan Burgers
Everything Legendary, a black-owned business, is making waves with its vegan burger range. Founded by Jumoke Jackson, Danita Gassen, and Duance Cheers, the company is dedicated to promoting healthy eating in the black community. Their burgers, available in four flavors, are versatile and made from all-natural, plant-based ingredients.
The company's vegan burgers come in four delicious flavors: pepper jack, cheddar cheese, cayenne pepper, and classic. But these aren't your average burgers. They're versatile and can be used in a variety of recipes, not just as traditional patties. Everything Legendary's founders aim to tackle health issues prevalent in the black community, such as heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, and obesity, by encouraging healthier food choices.
In 2021, the company appeared on Shark Tank, seeking $300,000 for 10% of the business. Mark Cuban was impressed and offered a deal of $300,000 for 22% of the business, along with valuable business advice and a plan. The deal closed later that year. Despite the lack of information about the founders in initial search results, their story and mission have since gained significant traction.
Everything Legendary's vegan burgers, at around 250 calories each, are a healthy and tasty option. The company, still active and predicting good sales for the current year, is a testament to the power of diversity and innovation in the food industry. By promoting healthier choices, they're making a positive impact on the black community and the wider market.
