Kraft is teaming up with fancy ice-cream company Van Leeuwen to produce Kraft Macaroni & Cheese Ice Cream.

This time around, it's being sold at Walmart stores nationwide, so it's unlikely to sell out as quickly. It's only available for a limited time, so go grab a pint soon if it intrigues you — the release is slated for March 14, reports Chew Boom. Otherwise, you can always try some of Van Leeuwen's other head-scratching flavors, which will also be exclusive to Walmart:
- Pizza, a cream cheese and mozzarella ice cream with a tomato jam swirl and basil crust cookies
- Planet Earth, a blue spirulina — that's algae — almond ice cream with pieces of matcha green tea cake
- Hot Honey, a comparatively tame-seeming vanilla ice cream with honeycomb and swirls of spicy hot honey
