What we love most about Evol, aside from the cutesy name (it’s “love” backwards), is the company’s commitment to making food that looks surprisingly unlike most processed foods in the supermarket. This burrito features free-range chicken, black beans, brown rice, bell peppers, corn, and cheese made from hormone-free milk. It begs the question: If Evol can make frozen foods without funky additives, why can’t its competitors?
