Cadbury Is Planning A Vegan Version Of Its Iconic Chocolate Bar Proving We Can Have Nice Things
Eating a vegan diet means giving up some obvious things, like meat and dairy products, which is easy for some people to do. But amazing foods like chocolate bars also fall into the “do no eat” category, which can be...tricky. Luckily for vegans, some companies have rolled out dairy-free chocolates and it looks like Cadbury could be next.
A spokesperson for Cadbury revealed to Business Insider that the company is planning on testing out a plant-based version of its Dairy Milk chocolate bar. That’s kind of a big deal, given that the word “dairy” is in the treat’s name.
"We're always listening to our consumers, so we can develop and provide people with a greater choice of products. This includes looking at a plant-based Cadbury Dairy Milk bar," a spokesperson for Cadbury's US owner Mondelēz said in a statement to Business Insider.
Mondelēz also recently revealed that the company has set a goal to reduce absolute end-to-end greenhouse gas emissions by 10 percent—compared to 2018—by the year 2025.
While the vegan chocolate news is exciting for people who watch their dairy intake, it doesn’t look like you’ll spot a Cadbury non-dairy dairy milk bar on shelves anytime soon. The spokesperson said that there are "no immediate plans" release the bar.
"We are only interested in launching a new vegan product that retains the texture and taste that our consumers expect and love from Cadbury products," the spokesperson said.
Fair. But that’s OK—it gives them plenty of time to work on the name.
