The Best Vegan Options at Kroger
Your ultimate guide to plant-based shopping in the aisles of Kroger.
Shopping Vegan at Kroger
Kroger (and its affiliates like Ralphs and Fred Meyer) launched the "Simple Truth Plant Based" line, dramatically increasing access to vegan alternatives in suburban areas.
Top Plant-Based Picks
If you're making a grocery list, ensure you don't leave the store without grabbing these essential vegan products:
- Simple Truth Plant Based Sour Cream
- Simple Truth Plant Based Ground Meat
- Simple Truth Dairy-Free Cheese Shreds
- Simple Truth Plant Based Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough
- Kroger Brand Frozen Edamame
Accidentally Vegan Snacks
These products aren't strictly marketed as "vegan," but they just happen to contain zero animal-derived ingredients, making them completely safe:
- Kroger Brand Hash Brown Patties
- Private Selection Sorbet
- Kroger Brand Saltine Crackers
- Clif Bars (Most flavors)
Pro Shopping Tips
- Always look for the green "Simple Truth Plant Based" labels—they are guaranteed vegan and typically more affordable than name brands.
- Use Kroger's digital coupons. They frequently drop high-value coupons for their Simple Truth items.
- Check the natural foods section, which is usually a separate aisle entirely dedicated to health and plant-based foods.
