My absolute favorite!!!
This is by far my favorite plant based mac and cheese! It brings me back to the days when I could eat the regular dairy Kraft Mac and cheese!

Great, easy, not expensive
Love this, as do my kids - it tastes exactly like the mac & cheese from my college days, many decades ago! The price is far better than other plant-based brands. I don’t know why anyone says it’s sweet; it’s not. I think some people give anything vegan a bad review.

Horrible!!
I bought this by mistake and I was ready for a little cheat day and so excited to eat it, and when I tried it, I thought it was bad. I thought it was expired and when I looked at the date, I realized it wasn’t expired. It was plant based. I couldn’t eat it and I’m pretty good about eating plant-based stuff.

Vegan since '09, best mac
This is a great macaroni. Some posters are confusing coconut for sweet. There is definitely subtle hint of coconut and I love it. It is very creamy. My husband who is not a vegan has said this is the first vegan macaroni that doesn't "stink." This is my favorite boxed vegan mac I've ever had. Avoid if you don't like coconut.

Tastes like the 90s!
This tastes like the Original Kraft Mac and Cheese! Have you noticed that the quality of kraft mac and cheese with dairy has decreased over the last ten years? If so, this is for you! My whole family agrees that this tastes exactly like kraft mac used to and the bonus is since I am now unable to eat dairy, I can have it! This is in my very experienced opinion the best vegan Mac on the market and I have tried nearly all of them. This is my number one favorite food.

DONT BUY THIS THE SAUCE IS SWEET AND BLAND
Noooo this is so bad. Somehow the cheese is sweet? I didn’t even add milk, just butter and salt. It’s so gross that I’m actually p!sued for buying it.

Yum!
My family loves mac & cheese, but they tried this for me and we all thought it was so good. Finally another option than Daiya!

Pretty tasty!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Kraft plant based not Mac &cheese was easy to prepare and use. Nothing too difficult just like regular mac&cheese. Tasted similar to the original thing. I’d probably try again and try a variation of it as well.

Really Good!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Plant-Based Kraft mac and cheese is nothing short of amazing. I never imagined a plant-based option could taste this good! I wholeheartedly recommend it, and I will definitely buy it again. Next on my list is a delicious NotMac&Cheese cheesy casserole, featuring cooked NotHotDogs and a mix of vibrant vegetables, all topped with crispy toasted bread crumbs. It sounds absolutely mouthwatering! If you're looking for a tasty, plant-based alternative, you must try this!

Vegan gold
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have tried waaaaay too many vegan Mac and cheeses. None of them are better than three stars. Notco Mac and cheese is so good that I now have a cupboard with 18 boxes in it. This is not going to be a substitute for the kid who eats normal kraft every day because the taste is reminiscent of but not the same as regular Kraft. This is for the lactose intolerant or vegan kid (or kid at heart) that wants to enjoy something comforting and isn't comparing with great recency to the standard stuff. It's good. It's perfectly comforting. But it's not here to fool your taste buds. Notco Mac is here to fulfill a niche. It's stunningly perfect for what it is.

Amazing Mac
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really loved the plant based mac and cheese. I made this box and added grilled chicken for my family for dinner. I enjoyed the flavor, texture, and appeal of this mac and cheese. It was easy to make, plus I appreciate that it's healthier for my family. Give this a try for your next meal at home!

Kraft not macaroni and cheese
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be! The flavor is similar to the original Mac and cheese version but the texture is a little different, it has a grainier feel to it. Swap the regular for vegan butter when making it and this is soooo creamy! I’d buy it again as a healthier alternative for my kiddos who didn’t seem to notice the difference :)

It’s a No
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Kraft NotCo Original Flavor Plant-Based Mac & Cheese has a very distinct taste that is not like the original version. The cheese sauce has a weird, sweet taste that just doesn't pair well with pasta. While the texture is the same, the flavor is just off-putting. Unfortunately, I will not purchase this product again.
