For years, Daiya has remained steadfast as the lone dairy-free boxed mac and cheese with a prepared liquid sauce – no additional ingredients needed. Don’t worry, that cheesy product line isn’t going away. But they are finally joining the masses with a classic Kraft-style collection. Daiya Dry Dairy-Free Mac & Cheese is hitting shelves in three flavors: Cheddar, White Cheddar, and a dairy-free first, Aged Cheddar. Each shelf-stable box contains gluten-free pasta and vegan powdered cheese mix.
