About the Brand
For more than 65 years, Worthington and Loma Linda have created new and innovative products for consumers looking for vegetarian options.

Worthington Foods began as Special Foods in 1939, founded by psychiatrist Dr. George Harding. Dr. Harding was committed to providing health for the body and mind with an emphasis on nutrition and vegetarianism. The first products were the meat alternatives Proast (dark meat) and Numete (light meat). Special Foods grew throughout the years and saw a jump in production due to a shortage of meat during WWII. In 1945, Special Foods changed its name to Worthington.

In the decades to follow, Worthington Foods led the way to new vegetarian products. During the 1950s, Worthington increased in size due to acquisitions and new product developments, such as Soyamel and Veja-Link, the world's first vegetarian hot dog. In the 1960s, Worthington experienced two major breakthroughs. First, using spun soy fiber to create a meat-like texture helped to bring new vegetarian products to market. Second, Worthington was the first to bring frozen vegetarian food into supermarkets.

In the 1970s, under new ownership by Miles Laboratories, Worthington introduced Morningstar Farms products. In 1982, the original founders bought back the business and, soon after, Dale Twomley became CEO, taking the company public in 1992. You now find these products under the Kellogg's family of brands.

Customer Reviews

Finally found some
My husband went to a Seventh Day Adventist boarding school back in the 40s and of course, Choplets were on the menu. We are not vegetarians but love them as a breakfast side instead of meat or on a bun for lunch. I dredge them in Vigo Italiam Bread Crumbs and lightly fry in a bit of oil. Up until about a year ago we could, at times, buy them at two grocery stores here in Tampa, Fl. I had never used Amazon before but a friend suggested I look on this site. What a pleasant surprise to not only find Choplets but find them at about 2/3 the grocery store prices. Even better, shipping was free. I have made two other purchases since late Dec. and am looking forward to shopping Amazon for hard to find items in the future.

I like them
I bread these with bread crumbs and just brown them lightly on both sides. If you over cook them they will be tough. Then serve them in a sandwich or on a hamburger bun with a slice of onion, tomato, lettuce, cheese and whatever condiments you would a hamburger. I like mine with mayonnaise and ketchup.

They do not taste like a hamburger, and I don't think they were intended to. They taste good on their own.

A great, healthy alternative to meat. Lots of protein and low fat. I even serve them to my 'meat & potatoes' eating husband.

The BEST EVER!
I have enjoyed this product ever since I was a small child, I was very happy to have found them on Amazon. Usually you buy this item at a 7th Day Adventist Church but I am new to the area and have yet to locate the church that has a pantry.
