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.
