Nestle is introducing a 100% vegan KitKat bar this year.
“Taste was a key factor when developing the plant-based chocolate for our new vegan KitKat. We used our expertise in ingredients, together with a test and learn approach, to create a delicious vegan alternative to our original chocolate KitKat,” a Nestle representative said in a press release.
Vegan chocolate is complicated because of the presence of milk in most chocolate products.
“One of the most common requests we see on social media is for vegan KitKat, so we’re delighted to be able to make that wish come true,” Alexander von Maillot, Nestle’s head of confectionary, said. ” I can’t wait for people to be able to try this amazingly tasty new KitKat. This is a product for everyone who wants a little more plant-based in their life!”
According to The Hill, the Dietary Guidelines Advisory Committee recommends a vegan diet or a diet that uses the least amount of animal products to lower the environmental impact.
“There is a quiet food revolution underway that is changing how people eat. We want to be at the forefront of that, championing the discovery of plant-based food and beverages,” von Maillot said.
