In the United States, Lidl supermarkets are now selling pints of coconut milk ice cream that are free from dairy, yet full of flavor. The plant-based frozen desserts were introduced just in time for National Ice Cream Day and delighted sweet-toothed consumers with classic flavors like Chocolate. Lidl's new non-dairy ice cream range comes in pints that boast similar packaging to Ben & Jerry's, as well as flavors like Cookie Dough.
While a great number of consumers are now becoming more open-minded about plant-based eating in general, vegan-friendly desserts have the potential to win over people of all ages by providing a better-for-you take on a beloved treat that's free from dairy.
