Valeo lunches vegan variety of Kettle Chips in UK
Ireland’s Valeo Foods Group has launched a vegan variant of its Kettle Chips crisps range in the UK in the shape of Vegan Sheese & Red Onion.
Developed by the brand’s innovation chef Phil Hovey, alongside vegan chefs at plant-based food company Bosh, the variety features vegan ‘Red Leicester-style’ alternative cheese from brand Sheese.
Sheese does not contain any artificial ingredients and is produced in a completely vegan factory.
The new SKU will be available in Asda from the start of January, followed by Tesco and Morrisons at the end of the month.
Hovey said: “At Kettle we’re always looking for ways to bring our flavour combinations to everyone, regardless of their dietary requirements.”
The crisps have a RRP of GBP1.99 (US$2.58)
Valeo bought the European snack assets of US food giant Campbell Soup Co. – including Kettle Chips – in September.
