Falafel by Kaufland K-Take it Veggie (private label)

Kaufland is one of the big German supermarket chains in Europe and introduced its vegan brand K take it veggie in 2016 (private label). Ever since the portfolio has been growing and I finally got to try their falafel upon being recommended to me. 

Taste and Score

Their vegan products range from falafel to  dips to burgers. Ahything a Western heart is seeking for. The only thing they are missing at the moment are vegan fish sticks from what I saw – please correct me if I am wrong. In another post you can read about the vegan Schnitzel – also very delicious!

So how does this product taste? It is very tasty but different to falafel as we know it from our beloved kebab place. Why? Simply because I do not have a fryer but had to fried it in my pan with a bit of oil which makes the falafel stay quite soft and not crispy like we know it. Don’t worry it is delicious either way – I had it pan fried with some veggies and rice, in a salad with – the one and only- Sriracha sauce. Check out the scoring below.

Kaufland buys its falafel from a Dutch producer called Vegafit. They produce multiple vegan meat alternatives and according to their website demand in the German market is continuously growing. I am very curious which other supermarket sells their products, too.
