Dr. Praeger's Purely Sensible Foods Fact Sheet

    Dr. Praeger’s Fact Sheet

    Overview:Dr. Praeger’s was founded in 1994 by two practicing cardiac surgeons with a simple mission – to provide a way of eating that furthers wellness through great tasting and nutritious products. An innovator in the natural food industry, Dr. Praeger’s was among the first to offer a portfolio of flavorful, convenient, good-for-you products free of artificial ingredients, colors and fillers. Its best-selling California Veggie Burgers were a hit with consumers long before frozen “natural” foods became a hot commodity.

    Dr. Praeger’s remains a family-owned and operated business based in Elmwood Park, New Jersey, and continues to innovate under the leadership of Dr. Peter Praeger’s son, Larry. Dr. Praeger’s has expanded its product line to include dozens of great-tasting meals and snacks that are staples in healthy homes throughout the United States and Canada.
