Boca Burger® is owned
by Kraft, one of the largest food manufacturers in the world. Kraft
in turn is owned by Philip Morris, the tobacco company.
Kraft would not share
the sourcing of its organic soybeans for “made with organic
soybeans” veggie burgers.
Boca Burgers® that are
not labeled “made with organic soybeans” are most likely made
with hexane-extracted soybeans. Hexane is a neurotoxic chemical
solvent that is listed as a hazardous air pollutant with the EPA, and
food and feed processing is the major source of hexane pollution in
this country.
