The new formula is awful and I will never be buying any of these products again until the older, good formula is brought back. I thought this was a reliable food company, but alas, no.

Unbelievable, Annie's. Your customer base wants a healthier product than other mac 'n cheese companies, and you take out the butter for more cornstarch and salt?? Putting "now cheesier" on the box is just manipulative and insulting! I had higher hopes for your company but you're like all the rest.

My adult kids have been eating this for years, but since they've changed it to be 'now cheesier', they don't like it as much. It doesn't mix well, sothe cheese gets lumpy.

Changed recipe is not good. I have been eating Annie’s for a long time and loved it!! Last nite I made this and I knew something was off. The cheese packet didn’t have as much in it…..the color was pale….. the flavor was lackluster. I just learned the recipe is different. It’s not good. It has zero flavor. Corn starch is the new ingredient……. Please bring back the old version!!!! Please!!!!

New recipe lacks flavor, powder is difficult to mix, consistency is gooey not in a good way. I have been buying my kids this Mac and cheese for almost 11 years. It was our favorite. When neighbors would come over they would be thrilled that I had “the good Mac and cheese”. I’ve made this a few times since new recipe labeling it as “now more cheesier” has been on the box. Today was the last day. None of the 6 kids at my house could stand even their first helping. Bummed. Please consider revision as you really had something good!

This used to be the gold standard of mac & cheese. Now they have changed the formula; the box says "now cheesier!" The sauce is thicker, and the rich taste of the aged cheddar is gone. I'm sad :(

Beyond disappointed by the new recipe

I am devastated by the change of the recipe. It’s nothing like the original. I have eaten this Mac and cheese consistently for probably almost 20 years. I moved to Australia and my husband would import 10 boxes of it for Valentine’s Day or my birthday. That is how much I loved this Mac and cheese. It is not only unrecognizable, it’s just not even good. It tastes as mediocre as Kraft now. It’s flavorless.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Mac and cheese is very similar to any other Mac and cheese. Don’t get me wrong it’s still delicious and creamy! The ingredients are not the healthiest but very affordable and makes a good lunch!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was so disappointed in this mac and cheese the box claims it's "now cheesier" but it doesn't taste very cheesy at all it was quite bland actually. I did use unsalted butter when I made this so I will repurchase one more time and try salted butter and see if that helps I did prefer the texture of this mac and cheese over the other popular brand.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We have been a fan of the regular Annie’s for years, so we were excited to try this flavor. I don’t like for the kids to just have pasta, so I saw where some people added some mixed veggies & chicken to make a more complete meal. This was a hit with the kids! The packaging is easy to find & distinguishable among the more processed macs. Would definitely buy this again, I’ve seen some other recipes as well, probably will try mixing in some BBQ chicken next! Yum!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Annie's Shells and Real Aged Mac & Cheese offers a comforting and delicious meal with rich, cheesy flavor. The organic pasta shells perfectly capture the creamy sauce, and the real aged cheddar elevates the taste. While slightly pricier than some options, the quality makes it worth it. A delightful choice for both kids and adults craving a quick comfort food classic.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] A nice and organic substitution for Velveeta. Actually tasted better than Velveeta. Rich, cheesy, and soft. There was enough for 4 of us to eat in a small bowl. Will be purchasing this again in the future.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Shells and white cheddar, yummy. I have a child 7 years old and we always bought the other Mac & cheese brand. But after trying this she loved it so much, we might buy this in future. It taste so good and it’s cheesy. Good to know it’s organic

Old recipe is way better

I loved Annie’s, I grew up eating this pasta. It’s always had the best flavor for box Mac n cheese but ever since the new recipe it’s completely fell off the list. The recipe isn’t as good, should keep this new one in case people want “cheesier” and bring back the OG recipe. I know this review is not going to make it to the team but in case it does please consider I’m desperate. Nothing hurts more than a craving you can’t fulfill. At least send me some old boxes 😂😂
