Made with noodles crafted from Arcadia’s proprietary wheat
grain, which is naturally higher in fiber and protein than
traditional wheat, GoodWheat Mac & Cheese delivers the classic
mac & cheese taste and texture the whole family loves, but
healthier. GoodWheat Mac & Cheese has 12g of protein and is an
excellent source of fiber with 4x the fiber of traditional boxed
mac & cheese (8g per serving vs 2g in traditional mac).
Available in three kid-approved flavors – Classic Cheddar, White
Cheddar and Three Cheese – and made with real cheese from cows not
treated with rBST, even the pickiest eaters will love this healthy
take on a classic.
“With the growing popularity of mac & cheese, a
multi-billion-dollar category and a family favorite, it’s the
perfect next brand expansion for GoodWheat, on our mission to bring
more fiber to the foods consumers love,” said Stan Jacot, president
and CEO of Arcadia Biosciences. “By leveraging our signature, USA
farm grown, non-GMO GoodWheat pasta, we’ve created a superior mac
& cheese that’s packed with prebiotic fiber, so it’s good for
your gut. And now, with our Amazon launch, it’s available for picky
eaters across the country to enjoy.”
Americans are grappling with a widespread fiber deficiency – and
research shows that 90% of Americans don’t meet the recommended
daily intake; 25g for women and children and 38g for men. Without
enough fiber, Americans are at higher risk for cancer, diabetes,
heart disease and stroke. GoodWheat is on a mission to help
Americans get more fiber in their diets by increasing the amount of
fiber in the delicious foods they love. GoodWheat’s new Mac &
Cheese line is a delicious and easy way to increase fiber intake,
delivering 32% of the daily fiber requirement for women and
children and 21% of the daily requirement for men in each serving.
In fact, it has the same fiber as two and a half servings of
broccoli.
GoodWheat Mac & Cheese is now available on Amazon in four
different four-pack varieties for $19.99: a four-pack of Classic
Cheddar, a four-pack of White Cheddar, a four-pack of Three Cheese
and a Variety Pack with two packs of Classic Cheddar and one each
of White Cheddar and Three Cheese. Individual six-ounce boxes of
GoodWheat Mac & Cheese are also available at select retailers
including Lowes Foods and Harris Teeter. For more information on
GoodWheat Mac & Cheese and the brand’s other products, as well
