Kraft launched a vegan version of its classic blue box Mac and Cheese in Australia. The contemporary version of its iconic is both gluten-free and vegan, making it highly accommodating for those with dietary restrictions. As an international food giant, Kraft Heinz is moving with today's growing dairy-free industry.
Its new product even includes modified cooking instructions that suggest using soy milk instead of traditional cow's milk. The gluten-free and vegan pasta is made from rice flour and boasts a dairy-free sauce. The Kraft vegan mac and cheese is currently only available in Australia. Dairy-free shoppers can visit Woolworths grocery stores to purchase the vegan products. Shoppers can also buy the item from Kraft Heinz's online store.
