So yummy! Tried these as it's supposed to be a healthier version than Kraft – I didn't have high hopes. It actually exceeded my expectations. It's far creamier and very tasty. Good price for the box as well.

Absolutely not new recipe is a no go

The inside of the cheese packet is supposed to be white cheddar. We've bought it so many times and it is a light creamy color almost white but a little bit off-white not this time we opened it and it looks like a giant glob of chalk, orange brown, chalk, almost golden in color, but not a good gold. This was absolutely offputting, but I was not about to waste food so finished making it and took a bite no no no so disgusting it tastes chalky too. I don't know what they did besides get rid of milk and butter and replace it with other stuff but it's so horrifically bad.

    I love Annie's organic pasta

    I love that Sam's has a big box of these for less than $1 a piece basically. I hope the price stays the same. I used to just grab a couple of boxes when they went on sale at the regular grocery store. Now I love to stock up and is the Only organic pasta I buy for my family 😊 my kids love Annie's pasta

    So much better than Kraft

    While I still have reservations about feeding kids Mac and Cheese all the time, at least this is something I enjoy too.

    White cheddar is the best

    Thank you for carrying white cheddar as a stand alone. My six kids love this flavor and this flavor only.

    Great Value!

    We love Annies and when a box runs $1.60-$1.80 nowadays, this is a massive savings! I've given my kids this brand their whole lives and they won't touch other brands...even when I try to be sneaky about it, so I love to save money on this bulk box. PLEASE ADD REGULAR AGED CHEDDAR!! One loves White, one loves "yellow annies"..... <3

    Best deal on this product!

    Great product at an affordable price esp since we all use more than one box at a time.

    These are great. Use for mac and cheese or plain. The cheese packet works in sour cream or mayo for a cheesy dip. Would have given 5 stars but all the individual boxes were unglued on the bottom of the boxes.

    Annie's is the bomb.com

    We love the variety pack. Only white cheddar is a little boring.

    Clumpy Cheese Sauce

    The cheese sauce is bland and is ALWAYS clumpy. It's very strange, no matter how many boxes I make with different techniques, the cheese powder always clumps.

    cheese packets were not factory sealed

    This is a good product. However, recently I purchased at the South Jordan Utah location and more than half of the 12 boxes had packaging issues. The white cheese packets look like they were not factory sealed, as one side of the packet was open, spilling all over the noodles.

    Another product ruined by being bought out

    We've been wondering why the Annie's didn't taste as good and sauce clumped more. Annie's was bought by General Mills and recently changed their ingredients to include corn starch and more preservatives. It doesn't cook or taste the same. Ingredients listed here on sms club are incorrect.

    I think the box would have been tastier

    I was really disappointed, not much flavor in this. I think to finish the rest of it off I'll have to add something to it. I know I definitely won't get it again. I might even throw the rest of the boxes into a box to go to a food bank. yes, that's what I think of it.

    Don't. Just don't.

    This is the worst. Unless you completely doctor it, it is virtually inedible. I thought Kraft was bad, but this is the pits. .
