Heinz has launched spaghetti carbonara in a tin — claiming the pasta is a fail-proof gift for kitchen-dodging Gen Z.
It comes as a third of young people claim they are hopeless at cooking and want quick, easy grub instead.
The £2 (A$3.87) no-drama carbonara was introduced in the UK because Gen Z consistently ranks the dish as one of the toughest to whip up.
Heinz claimed it has made a “recipe that’s fail-proof, taking all the fuss out of cooking, allowing pasta lovers to nail it every time”,
But the move has enraged pasta purists, who branded the can version a “disgrace”.
Alessandra de Dreuille, meals director at Kraft Heinz said: “We understand people are looking for convenient meals that are effortless to prepare.
“Our spaghetti carbonara delivers just that.
“It’s the perfect solution for a quick and satisfying meal at home.”
