description: 'Daring Foods is an American plant-based food company, founded in 2018 by Ross Mackay and Eliott Kessas, that
  makes 100% plant-based chicken from a deliberately short ingredient list with soy as the protein base. Trading simply as
  "Daring", it sells retail Plant Chicken in shredded, diced and breaded-pieces formats plus a line of ready-to-heat Plant
  Chicken Bowls and Plant Chicken Wings through more than 15,000 US grocery stores, and runs a separate foodservice business
  supplying bulk and gluten-free product to restaurants, campus dining and institutional kitchens. The company raised over
  $120 million across 2020-2021 during the plant-based protein boom and was acquired by the Australian plant-based meat manufacturer
  v2food in 2025, under which it retains its own brand. Daring Foods is a consumer packaged goods business, not a software
  vendor: it operates no developer program, publishes no product API, and offers no portal, SDKs or developer support. The
  only machine-readable interface it exposes is the WordPress REST content API behind daring.com, which is anonymously readable
  and unusually well-stocked for a CPG site - 208 recipes classified by cooking method, 14 retail products, 7 foodservice
  products, 17 marketing pages and a 749-item media library - captured here for discovery purposes.'

  note: 'Renamed from MCPServer 2026-09-03 (roadmap#247): the manifest self-describes as status: candidate — a tool list derived
    from the published API contracts, not an existing server. The scorer already read the manifest and reported mcp_server
    correctly; the MCPServer type was crediting the artifact-type surfaces with a server that does not exist.'
