I used to look forward to eating Annie’s White Cheddar mac and cheese. I don’t anymore with the new recipe change. I’ll be going back to Kraft White Cheddar mac and cheese from now on.

The new recipe is HORRIBLE!!!! I have always been such a huge fan of the original white cheddar shells from Annie’s. I would buy 5-6 boxes at a time because it was soo good. The new recipe that they put out to save money is just disappointing. My favorite food since my CHILDHOOD has been ruined. I will not be buying anything from this company ever again. EDIT: Annie’s took down my review.

The sauce packets aren’t sealed in 75 % of the boxes I purchase. The powder gets all over uncooked pasta and also the sauces flavor is altered after losing some of its contents. Very sad for such an easy problem to fix.

Bad Flavor

I thought I got a one-off bad box it tasted so weird. I bought another box much later and from a different store, and it was the same, so I guess that’s their new recipe. It tastes nothing like cheese. I ate it because I had to (I was hungry), but not because I wanted to. Won’t be buying again.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Annie’s Mac and Cheese has always been a comforting classic, but the Now Cheesier version takes it to a whole new level. The cheese sauce is noticeably richer, creamier, and more flavorful—it wraps around every noodle in that perfect, velvety way that just makes you smile. Whether you’re whipping it up for a quick lunch, a cozy dinner, or a late-night craving, it delivers every time. It’s nostalgic, satisfying, and somehow even more delicious than I remember. If you loved Annie’s before, this new version might just become your favorite comfort food.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] We love Annie's products because of the better for you ingredients in them. The white cheddar shells are delicious and taste very similar to the Velveeta shells. It's a great side dish for dinner.
Please bring back the old recipe :(

I’m so sorry to leave a one star review, but I have been eating Annie’s mac and cheese my whole life and it was my favorite comfort food. Now with the new formula it is really so different. Much more like the other more chemically brands:((( Please bring back the old recipe. Xoxox a loyal Annie’s lover

Didn’t taste cheesier but still good

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Macaroni and cheese was simple to make. This is a meal that we have had before and we’re eager to try the cheesier version, but did not taste a significant difference between this new recipe. It was flavorful but it was not necessarily cheesier than the old recipe. I also enjoyed that the mix is made with real cheese and organic ingredients.

New recipe is terrible. Don’t mess with a good thing. If you want to make a different product with this new recipe go for it! But don’t mess with something that has been selling like hot cakes for 40+ years. Hoping this will be your “New Coke” and you’ll bring back the classic

Disappointed in the New Recipe

LJW13 - 2 months ago

This new recipe is so disappointing. I loved Annie's mac and cheese, but will no longer be buying it after the change in recipe. I have tried it a couple times thinking maybe it was an off box, but it was not. My daughter (not knowing the recipe changed) also mentioned that she no longer likes this brand of mac and cheese. The texture is very gloopy and slimy now. Very disappointed. I hope they bring back the oldrecipe.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I sampled Annie's new white cheddar mac and cheese and found it less appealing than expected; my preference remains with regular mac and cheese. However, I have consistently enjoyed other Annie's products in the past, and believe a non white chedder cheese version of this product would be more to my liking.

We tried it tonight, and our verdict was "they didn't even TRY to make it taste like cheese." So bad we won't eat the rest of the case and we don't want to give it to a food pantry because their patrons have suffered enough.
