Kroger macaroni and cheese?

johnsonmommy3 · 03-30-2008, 08:33 PM

Anyone buy this? My Dillons has it on sale for 28 cents and i wanted to stock up if its any good. We like the Kraft (of course) and the Traget brand is good too. Just wondered how this compares? Oh and we dont like the Aldi brand.....thanks

Not sure how it compares but my mom and brothers have eaten it. My DH won't let me buy anything BUT Kraft. Guess I'm really not much help.

of course it is not as creamy as kraft..kraft is all we buy,,, come to think of it that is one of the few namebrand items that is a must in our house

My stepdad is super duper picky about his macaroni and cheese. He will ONLY eat the Kraft kind. Just like he'll only eat the boxed brownies. If you fix either of these from scratch, he whines!

My mom has managed to sneak the Kroger brand by him a few times and he hasn't noticed, though. If she can sneak it by him, it must be decent!

Kroger brand mac & cheese used to be the only kind I would buy. We use to eat it all the time, but we gradually switched back over to Kraft over the last year. I always liked it!

I agree on the Aldi brand!! I really like most everything from Aldi, but not that mac & cheese! It's nothing at all like Kraft. Luckily Kraft goes on sale a lot, so we just stock up then. I'll have to try the Target brand too, I haven't had it before...

We used to eat the Kroger brand, but then my kids will eat pretty much any macaroni--except the Target brand and the healthy one--neither of which I can get to disolve properly, so it is probably more a user error than the brand. Now we eat one I make in the crockpot--a little healthier and really easy, although it did take a sneaky trick to get them to eat it the first time since it looks so different.
