Not good!

The Mac & Cheese was not good. There was an odd taste, kind of like a plastic smell. I would not heat in the plastic container again but would not buy again either. My two sons who love any Mac & Cheese were yucked out with this Panera Bread M&C

terrible!

I love the mac and cheese at Panera and have bought this at Sam’s and enjoyed it in the past. The last batch was watery and tasted like plastic though. Never again.

Recent purchase was terrible

I have bought this many times for my daughters lunches and the last purchase was very thin/watery with hardly any noodles. If it was like this the first time I purchased, I would never buy again. Like so many other companies...they used to have a good product but are now just ripping people off while keeping their pockets fat.

We have Panera at home

This is a really close approximation of Panera's mac and cheese. Sam's used to sell a 2-pack of quarts, but it was closer to "inspired by" than this is. For better and worse, this is pretty close to what you get if you order it from Panera. The only downside is that these containers are pretty small. I'd guess these are a little smaller than a small from Panera. Not a problem in and of itself, but worth knowing before purchase.

It’s not Panera…

It’s just not good. My kids are Mac and Cheese fanatics and both of them were not impressed. My main M&C gobbler couldn’t stomach more than one bite. My older kid who is not as sophisticated took about 4 bites before he gave up. I took a bite of his and agreed to just toss it.

Awful taste

My granddaughter and I go to panera for the mac and cheese because she loves it, so I was happy to find this in Sams. I dont know what they do to this mac and cheese, but it is truly disgusting tasting. Nothing like in the store and had a very plastic taste to it. We heated up all remaining cups to see if it was just one bad one. Nope, all were equally gross. Wont be buying this again.

It’s too much sauce

Too much sauce and I don’t care for the flavor. I guess I’m a cheddar Mac n cheese person.
