The generic Kroger line, Simple Truth, stocks amazing vegan products.

Cinnamon French Toast Sticks
Most French toast isn’t vegan, as the bread is dipped in an egg-based batter. But once again, Kroger is showing the world that there can be a vegan version of anything. Their Cinnamon French Toast Sticks are accidentally vegan, which means the box isn’t explicitly labeled as vegan, but all of the ingredients are. C’mon, who doesn’t love an easy heat-and-eat meal?

Plant-Based Alfredo Vegan Pasta Sauce
What’s every vegan’s go-to meal? Pasta! It’s no secret that most tomato-based pasta sauces are vegan, but using the same vegan pasta sauce over and over again can be a bit mundane. That’s why we love switching things up with this Plant-Based Alfredo Sauce!
