Today (July 14th) is Mac & Cheese Day! To celebrate, the Van Leeuwen Ice Cream company announced that they have partnered with Kraft to bring you the ultimate comfort food: mac & cheese ice cream.

Food blogger Amy McCarthy says the mashup is surprisingly good! “The cheese powder combines with Van Leeuwen’s rich base, made with milk, cream, and sugar, to produce a buttery flavor that’s only slightly cheesy. It doesn’t exactly evoke a bowl of macaroni and cheese in terms of texture, thankfully, but the flavor is strikingly similar.”

The ice cream flavour will only be available for a limited time and it’s not available here in Canada, however.
