Overall good
For a low calorie/high protein Mac n cheese, I thought it was good! The portion size and nutritional information were pretty similar to their own Mac n cheeses and other brands’ low calories meals. It tasted good, not the best one I’ve had, but overall good. I would buy again.

not even 1/2 full
I wouldn't say it was even 1/2 full. It was 1/2 a cup. Just one layer of noodles with cheese sauce. I will not be buying this again.

Used to be so good
I bought this today expecting it to taste as good as when it was in the black box. I'm so disappointed by the new recipe. It is so bland and the noodles are very mushy now. Yuck!!! You can tell the company making it with cheaper ingredients and the price has gone up. Will not buy again.

I’ve had this before and it was a good quick choice, this time after making it it was mush, the pasta was falling apart and the cheese sauce was glutinous and more chunky then smooth. Wouldn’t purchase again

Awful!
Tasted like salt and flour - no evidence of cheese whatsoever. Waste of money.

Small portion, grainy
Was ok. Grainy, but probably the protein. Portion was an issue for me. It was enough for one person. Container was way too large. The product barely covers the bottom of the tray. Company could save money by using a smaller containe.

Delicious. Plenty for me. A mild, cheesy taste. Not too overwhelming.

Portion Size Ridiculous
Can't believe I'm actually writing a review for a frozen meal, but I'm so mad that the last 3 meals of this I've purchased have been less than half full. I'm hoping it's just a quality control error & the portion size wasn't changed. I know it's a diet meal, but I swear, the last one I had was literally 12 macaroni noodles total. The taste is great so I hope they fix this.

Not Bad but not good!!!
I thought this was going to be really good but unfortunately my expectations were wrong I thought this was going to be really good but it wasn't that great. First of all the amount they put pasta in the packaging is so little it feels like I'm eating a snack. Second and last of all there is little to no cheese flavor to it. It tastes bland so I had to put actual cheese topping on it and it was better but I still don't like this very much.

Bland and Gritty
The mac and cheese overall tastes fine but it is very bland and instead of creamy, the cheese is watery and almost gritty.

Yucky
Small serving size, bizarre grainy sauce texture, mushy noodles, it upset my stomach and the little bit of flavor it offers is that of salty wet paper towels.

Half empty containers
This used to be my favorite. First they changed the noodles, which wasn't a really a big deal. But the last two I got were half empty. Like you uncover it to stir midway through cooking and you can see half of the bottom of the container with not a speck of cheese on it. This never used to happen before. I guess if they want to keep it cheap, now they are only giving you half a meal. Can't recommend this anymore.
