Arcadia Biosciences, Inc. is set to introduce a new mac and cheese under the GoodWheat brand. The new product aims to provide a nutritional boost to consumers, boasting four times the fiber content of leading macaroni and cheese brands, along with 12 grams of protein per serving.
"We start shipping into retailers this month and will be shipping to over 350 stores by the end of the year, and in February, we plan to have all three varieties available online at eatgoodwheat.com," said Stan Jacot, president and chief executive officer of Arcadia.
The GoodWheat mac and cheese will be offered in three distinct varieties: classic cheddar, white cheddar, and three cheese. Notably, it excludes artificial flavors, dyes, and preservatives, aligning with consumer preferences for cleaner labels.
