New England Patriots quarterback, Tom Brady, is letting people in on what the NFL superstar eats, by entering the meal kit delivery space, bringing plant-based performance meals to your table with the help of Purple Carrot.
"The TB12 Performance Meals are designed for anyone who's looking to achieve or sustain their own peak performance," Brady told CNBC in an email. "Whether that's in the gym, on the field, or at work. We want to inspire everyone — not just athletes — to be their best, and I think these meals will be a big step in that direction."
Brady's meals are gluten-free, higher in protein and lower in refined sugar than Purple Carrot's core line of meal kit products. Each week customers will receive three meals for two people for $78, or about $13 a meal.
While the average meal kit costs $8 to $12 per meal, folks interested in Brady's kit likely won't mind the slightly higher price tag, according to Erik Thoresen, a principal at food research and consulting firm Technomic.
