Award-winning Chef Woo from Borealis Foods (CNW Group/Borealis Foods, Inc.) Following a national triple-blind taste test, Chef Woo was awarded the American Masters of Taste Gold Medal for Superior Taste by Chefs In America, the nation's longest-standing independent culinary endorsement organization.

Adding to its accolades, Chef Woo was also named an Editor's Top Pick by Food & Beverage Magazine in its August 2025 issue.
