UK: Coconut Cream with Sauerkraut

Coconut Cream with Sauerkraut Fermented Food Snack is made with 100% raw ingredients, live cultures and natural coconut. Rhythm has converted traditional kefir grains to lactose-free vegan kefir grains using coconut milk.

South Africa: Paleo Granola

It’s all the crave man – that’s Planet Organic’s motto as it launches caveman-friendly Paleo Granola Chocolate Bliss (ZAR149.99/£9.03). The organic-certified product contains chia seeds, Brazil nuts and coconut while being free from grains, gluten and refined sugar.

Australia: Coconut, Cocoa & Almond Spread

Coco² Coconut, Cocoa & Almond Spread is a superfood described as delicious, nutritious and all natural by Pure Harvest. The spread (AUD4.15/£2.29) is ideal for toast, added to smoothies or just eaten straight from the jar.

Austria: Creamy Vegan Spread

Simply Vegan Spread (€3.79/£3.37) is a pure herbal spread made with almonds. The vegan product can be used as a spread, for cooking and baking, and is free from lactose, gluten and soy.

Brazil: Maria Biscuits

A trendy new twist on a Spanish classic – these Maria Biscuits are gluten and lactose-free. Similar to a rich tea biscuit, they retail in a 210g pack (BRL17.98/£4.29).

France: Organic Coconut Brawnie

Simply Raw’s Brawnie (€2.25/£2.00) is a raw, vegan and healthier take on the classic brownie. Made with fruit and nuts, the brownie bar with coconut is free from preservatives, dairy, egg, gluten and palm oil.

Germany: Hypoallergenic Dogfood

Greenwoods White Fish & Rice Complete Adult Dog Food (€8.99/£8.00) is naturally hypoallergenic and suitable for all breeds. Made from natural, sustainably sourced ingredients, it is free from wheat gluten, dairy, egg and soy, making it ideal for sensitive pooches.

US: Pineapple Vodka

Smirnoff’s Pineapple Flavoured Vodka ($12.99/£10.58) is free from gluten and high fructose corn syrup, made instead with real fruit juice concentrate. It is among a handful of vodkas that are starting to advertise its gluten-free status.

Poland: Vegetables with Rice & Turkey

This all-natural babyfood (PLN4.49/$0.99) is filled with vitamins and minerals such as alpha-linolenic acid and iron to help brain and body development, according to Hipp. It’s free from gluten, dairy, colours, preservatives and thickeners.

Spain: Lactose-free Philadelphia

Those avoiding lactose can now enjoy the ‘heavenly’ taste of Philadelphia as Mondelez adds a lactose-free variant to its range. The cream cheese is also free from gluten and retails in a 150g pack (€1.72/£1.53).
