Another sad example of a good product that has decided to cash out their good rep to scrimp on customers. Apparently in someone's at annie's book, 'cheesier' = 'more corn starch'. I have a few boxes of the old stuff left, and then I guess I will need to start the search for something new... Bye Annie's.

Cutting costs really obliterates quality tenfold. The whole "cheesier" thing is just marketing for "we're willingly destroying the taste of our product for a cornstarch substitute that'll MAYBE save us a couple pennies". Bring the original back and I'll come back too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Annie’s is a favorite in this house and the Aged Cheddar Mac is a new favorite. Perfect size for a meal or as a side. Always the best ingredients and the texture doesn’t disappoint.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] So I brought the cup just to see if I like and I don’t care for it. It taste bland and has no taste to it. It taste like Kraft Macaroni and I don’t like that brand. I’m glad I brought the small cup.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Honestly, this tastes just like every other brand of boxed mac n cheese! Very easy to make, great portion size, same great box and cheese packet, but healthier ingredients. That's always a win in my book. We really liked it and will be buying this again.

Why did you change the recipe Annie’s??? I hate change especially for food and I don’t like this new recipe, it tastes more buttery than cheesier. Please revert back to the old one.

New Recipe is Disappointing :(

I used to love this mac & cheese, I'm autistic and it was the only brand + shape I could tolerate and it was a good safe food I could have for lunch. When I saw the "now cheesier" label on the box I was worried, but I wanted to give it a chance. Unfortunately, I really don't like this new recipe. I have tried to eat it a few times, but I have never been able to finish my portion because I find the new flavor to be funky and gross, and oddly, less cheesy than before. I now have no mac + cheese that I can eat, and would love maybe a special "classic" recipe variation of these back on the shelves..

I just wanted to try this brand . I wasn't wooed at all. However I was sober eating it versus being in my 20's intoxicated and boy was Kraft boxed Mac delicious. I can't eat that brand now nor do I get intoxicated now at 68. But all in all I could see people and kids enjoying this brand.But not for me unfortunately.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I tried Annie’s Shells & Real Aged Cheddar Mac and Cheese, and it was surprisingly satisfying. The cheese had a rich, tangy flavor that felt more natural than most boxed options. The shells held the sauce well, and the texture was spot on. It’s my new go-to comfort meal.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Annie’s mac & cheese is far superior to other macaroni and cheeses that are out there. The quality is top-notch. Even the adults want to eat it. It is super creamy. Easy to make. Comes out fantastic every time. I appreciate that it is healthier than other products on the market. Box is clean, modern and with easy to follow instructions.

Please bring back the old recipe for all flavours of noodles affected by the change in Fall 2024. This used to be a weekly staple for our family, and now we can barely finish a box since no one like it anymore - myself and my kids included. We would love to see a return of the old flavour!!

I just tried the "now cheesier" version for the first time and I am terribly disappointed. The sauce is weirdly smooth and has significantly less flavor than the original version. I added lots of salt, paprika, and grated some of my own cheddar cheese into it and couldn't get away from the flat, bland flavor. I have been eating Annie's exclusively for 22 years. I will never buy this again and regret that I bought several boxes at the store that I now need to give away because I can't eat this. Please bring back the old recipe. :(

The new “Now Cheesier” recipe is a huge disappointment. The taste is off, the consistency is unpleasant, and it’s just not the same comforting meal it used to be. The original recipe was a safe, reliable comfort food for so many people, I myself would practically eat this meal almost everyday and this change has completely ruined that experience. Please listen to your loyal customers and bring back the old version!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Annie’s Real Aged Cheddar Shells & Cheese – A Creamy, Comforting Classic If you’re looking for a boxed mac and cheese that delivers real cheesy flavor without artificial ingredients, Annie’s Real Aged Cheddar Shells & Cheese is a solid choice. The pasta shells perfectly hold onto the rich, creamy sauce, which has a noticeably better taste than many other boxed options thanks to the real aged cheddar. The texture is smooth and velvety, and the flavor is more natural compared to traditional brands that use artificial flavors or colors. Plus, the fact that Annie’s uses organic pasta and no synthetic preservatives makes it an even better option for those who prefer cleaner ingredients. That said, if you’re used to ultra-processed mac and cheese, you might find the flavor a little milder and less salty. But adding a touch of butter or an extra sprinkle of cheese can easily enhance it to your preference. Overall, Annie’s Real Aged Cheddar Shells & Cheese is a great pick for anyone who wants a more wholesome, better-quality version of a childhood favorite. Definitely worth keeping in the pantry for an easy, satisfying meal!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My daughter loves the macaroni. However, i did notice it was a bit watery and took a bit to thicken. The taste is still really good and cheesy! My daughter can eat the whole box!!
