The company is calling it 'the world's largest blind taste test.' вЂњWe are working through a few ideas at the moment and we are excited about the possibilities in the plant-based arena.Kraft launched a marketing campaign Monday, starring former 'Daily Show' and 'Late Late Show' host Craig Kilborn. вЂњBeans are already a vegan product, so we are looking to take beans as a base for a new plant-based range,вЂќ Kraft Heinz Ireland head David Adams told The Checkout after the launch of its vegan mayo and salad cream. The brand recently filed trademarks under a new вЂњVBQвЂќ label for 29 new plant-based meats and barbecue sauces. The Heinz brand is also going beyond вЂњbeanzвЂќ and exploring other possibilities in the plant-based realm. During January last year, the company changed its long running вЂњBeanz Meanz HeinzвЂќ slogan to a more vegan-centric message вЂњBeanz Meanz VeganвЂќ in honor of the Veganuary campaign in the United Kingdom. In partnership with delivery service Deliveroo, Heinz offered the vegan pizza (along a non-vegan version) to customers in the United Kingdom for a limited time. For itвЂ™s 150th anniversary in 2019, Heinz revived Heinz Beanz Pizza, a cult classic product it discontinued in 2003 and gave it a vegan makeover. Heinz also leaned into Beanz as its hero vegan product. Last year, the condiment portion of the Kraft Heinz brand expanded its vegan offerings in the United Kingdom with the launch of Good Vegan Mayo and Vegan Salad Cream, which underwent extensive research to remove eggs from their formulation. The companyвЂ™s groundbreaking vegan cheese is set to debut in 2023. Kraft Heinz also participated in a $35 million funding round raised in 2019 by Silicon Valley-based startup New Culture which is using precision fermentation to create dairy-identical mozzarella without exploiting cows. During the program, Kraft Heinz supported the startups in their endeavors with mentorship and networking opportunities, access to the Kraft kitchen and production plants, and $50,000 in starting capital. In 2019, Kraft Heinz selected five vegan companies to support during its 16-week Springboard Brands program in Chicago: lupini-bean snack brand BRAMI cold-pressed almond juice brand Origin Almond vegan protein bar brand BlakeвЂ™s Seed Based coconut-based yogurt brand Tiny Giants and Ka-Pop!-makers of ancient-grain based chips in flavors such as vegan Dairy-Free Cheddar. While the Kraft vegan mac and cheese has yet to debut in markets outside of Australia, Kraft Heinz has made a number of investments stateside to support the growth of the plant-based industry. VegNews has reached out to Kraft Heinz to inquire about whether its new Kraft Vegan Mac & Cheese will be available in other markets outside of Australia. The new product has been spotted only in Australia at Woolworths grocery stores and online. Kraft even modified the cooking instructions to suggest using soy milk instead of traditional cowвЂ™s milk. The new product is offered in the same classic blue box but with prominent vegan messaging throughout. The new Kraft Vegan Mac & Cheese was developed as a вЂњcontemporaryвЂќ take on the classic boxed meal and is both gluten-free and vegan-certified with pasta made from rice flour and a dairy-free sauce. International food giant Kraft Heinz just launched a vegan version of its classic Kraft Mac & Cheese.
