In 2015 The James Beard Foundation in partnership with the Mushroom Council invited chefs to feature blended burgers on their menus to showcase this new way of increasing guest satisfaction.

The campaign was such a success that The James Beard Foundation is running the Blended Burger Project again in 2016, and it’s no wonder why! Blended burgers offer up better nutrition, enhanced sustainability and great �avor through umami principles.
