Kicking off this transformative journey is the introduction of LUNCHABLES Grilled Cheesies, offering both quality and ease, all at the touch of a button, the company said in a release.

The company’s ambitious plan includes the release of five new products spanning four iconic brands by the close of 2024.

LUNCHABLES Grilled Cheesies mark Kraft Heinz’s entry into the frozen food category. This product leverages a technology that replicates the pan-like crispiness typically achieved on the stovetop but with greater speed.
