SHELLS & CHEESE

I love shells and cheese! This is my American food guilty pleasure so I limit myself and make sure it's only an occasional special treat. Also because it's an import the price on it is very high. It's unfortunate because it really is delicious, there's a lot to be said for the soft, flavoursome packet of velveeta cheese. It's head and shoulders above any crumbly packet of yellow that you find in other brands more easily available. Though to be fair if this were widely available at all the shops I'd be completely unhealthy from buying it all the time so maybe better this way!

Ive bought these twice and both times the exp date has been 8mo to a year which is great. many times you buy these imports and exp date is a month so this is a plus. I like the 3 separately sealed packages which are good for a 2 person serving. The product Velveeta sells itself. This is better than buying the bar and having to use it all at once.

The value for money of this product is elite. Granted paying lots for delivery seems a bad idea. However, once you begin eating this product.... the Flavour extravaganza sends you into a frenzy of nostalgia as well as ecstasy.

They are actually really tasty. I’ve tried multiple different Mac and cheese brands and flavours and this if my favourite this far!

LOVE this meal!! Reminds me of home and is my favorite comfort food!! I have ordered this for a long time now and have enjoyed every bite!!

A little steep in price, but worth it to this pregnant lady with cravings for American comfort foods!

thank you

I’ve been on a little bit of a boxed mac and cheese binge recently and have been trying ones from all over the world so took a recommendation from my American friends to try velveeta shells and cheese. Now, I’m a big Kraft mac and cheese fan but I was told this is far better so I had to buy it. Initially the box feels a lot larger than Kraft, it’s a hefty box. It recommends 3 portions but I imagine Kraft recommends the same. Cooking wise, this is a lot easier than Kraft as you don’t need butter and milk. The packet that comes with the shells is a pre mixed sauce so you just stir it in. Now, I’m aware that boxed mac and cheese isn’t exactly the best mac and cheese in the world but I’m reviewing it for what it is. I was sorely disappointed with this mac and cheese. The flavour was kind of sour and not very cheesy. The sauce had a strong artificial taste but not in a Kraft Mac and cheese kind of way. Maybe the butter and milk is what makes Kraft better? Maybe it’s just what I’m used to? I have no idea but I struggled to eat this. It wasn’t a pleasant taste at all. I imagine that buying this in the US is relatively cheap but buying from Amazon ramps the price up significantly. If the product was good I wouldn’t have minded but it just really wasn’t worth the price. I highly recommend the Cheetos Mac and cheese however. Bold and cheesy and jalapeño are really good boxed mac and cheese and don’t cost nearly as much as this. Definitely worth a try if you’re a boxed mac and cheese fanatic like myself.

This Velveeta mac and cheese is honestly a really good side dish to have around for dinner. A lot of times what we’ll do is bread some chicken breast, make homemade chicken strips or nuggets, throw them right on top of the mac and cheese, and add some hot sauce. Simple meal, but it works really well together. The size of it is good enough to feed about three or four people at the dinner table depending on how hungry everybody is. It’s quick, easy to make, and you do get a pretty solid value for the money for the amount you get in the box. Obviously it’s not the healthiest thing in the world, and nobody is pretending it is, but sometimes you just want comfort food that’s easy to throw together after a long day. The cheese sauce is creamy, the noodles cook up well, and it’s one of those products that’s just consistently good to keep in the pantry.

My favorite

I love velveta!!!! Great taste, texture, and price. Easy to make and eat.

Very cheesy

Maybe it's nostalgia but some days nothing is better than Velveeta. This is a very good product that my children love. The cheese sauce is creamy and irresistible. I do swear the boxes have gotten smaller though
