The Beloved Goldfish Brand’s Take on this Childhood Favorite Will Be Available at Walmart
Fans of Pepperidge Farm’s ever-popular Goldfish® crackers now have a whole new reason to smile: this coming Monday, June 24, new Goldfish® Mac & Cheese will debut on store shelves exclusively at Walmart. Made with Goldfish-shaped pasta, Goldfish Mac & Cheese is available in four tasty varieties – Cheddar, Nacho Cheese, Cheesy Pizza, and Butter Parmesan. Made with real cheese sauce and no artificial preservatives, it’s an all new way to enjoy the ooey, gooey goodness of Mac & Cheese with a fun twist.
“Just like Mac & Cheese, the Goldfish brand is adored by children and adults alike, so it made perfect sense for us to add the fun and wholesomeness of Goldfish to this favorite classic food,” said Jared Konstanty, Senior Vice President, General Manager Snacks. “We’re thrilled to be able to deliver even more smiles to our devoted fans with the launch of Goldfish Mac & Cheese,” he added.
Pepperidge Farm Goldfish Mac & Cheese will be available exclusively in Walmart stores nationwide. For more information about the Goldfish brand, fans are encouraged to follow the brand on Twitter (@GoldfishSmiles) and on Facebook (facebook.com/GoldfishSmiles), and to visit GoldfishSmiles.com.
