Nothing like a good ol' fashioned product battle to start this wonderful Wednesday. This time, we're pitting two different breakfast sausage patties together to find out which one is more nutritious for you so that you can snatch up the winning box without worrying that there's something else out there that's better for you. Let's check out the competitors this week! Both Gardein and Yves have been around for quite some time now and both have a plethora of wonderful meatless options available. This weeks breakfast patty battle is sure to be exciting so let's take a look at the nutrition charts and begin this battle of the breakfast patties! We will be comparing them based off the recommended serving size which is for 1 patty of the Gardein brand and 2 patties of the YVES. Let's find out who will come out on top! ROUND 1 CALORIES GARDEIN 70 YVES 80 WINNER . . . . TIE Both options are fairly low in calories when compared per serving. The difference is that you get 2 patties with the YVES brand and only one with the GARDEIN. SHould you go in for a second patty, you're looking at almost double the calories of the YVES brand. ROUND 2 FAT GARDEIn 3.5g / 4% DV YVES 2g / 3% DV WINNER . . . . YVES Neither option is high in fat which is great, but the YVES serves up two patties for less fat than one of the GARDEIN variety. Once again, if you decided to go in for a second patty with the GARDEIN, you'd end up consuming 7g of fat which in itself is really not that bad but it certainly comes in significantly higher than the YVES variety. ROUND 3 SODIUM GARDEIN 300mg / 13% DV YVES 360mg / 15% WINNER . . . . GARDEIN GARDEIN inches ever so slightly ahead in the sodium round with 60 mg less sodium per serving. Things could go in a dramatically different direction should you have a second GARDEIN patty because it would leave you sitting at nearly double the amount of sodium and over 25% of your daily allowance meaning you'd need to be careful with the rest of your choices in the day! ROUND 4 PROTEIN GARDEIN 6g / 10% DV YVES 10g / 14% DV WINNER . . . . YVES YVES delivers in the protein department this round with 10g of muscle building protein per serving. Once again, things would take a turn in the other direction should you add that second GARDEIN patty in which case you'd have just a touch more protein than the YVES version but serving for serving, YVES comes out on top! ROUND 5 VITAMINS & MINERALS WINNER . . . . YVES This comes down to the information provided because GARDEIn fails to include the same statistics that YVES does when it comes to the vitamins & minerals department. Of the two stats we can compare, calcium and iron, YVES manages to come in with more of both per serving than the GARDEIn patties making them the winner in this department! WINNER .......... ......... ........ ....... ...... ..... .... ... .. . YVES Both breakfast patties put up a good fight but on a serving to serving comparison, YVES manages to come out on top! More protein, less fat, and more vitamins & minerals per serving means a better addition to your breakfast plate in the morning. Now get on out there and get yourself a box!
Make sure to come back again soon for the next battle of the meatless products to find out which product is number one! HAPPY VEG I do not own the images or information provided. Information and images taken respectively from, http://yvesveggie.com/ https://www.gardein.com/
