Another Great Panera Product!

Gatorette65 August 17, 2024

I am reviewing this free product. What a delicious surprise I got when I took that first bite!! This Panera Vegetarian Mac %26 Cheese tastes just like you get at their restaurant!! The creaminess and texture were spot on!! Love the white cheddar taste and the al dente noodles!! It's a bit on the expensive side, but so well worth it!!

Panera's Mac %26 Cheese

LCFrank July 1, 2025

Like most other Americans, I have been eatiing macaroni and cheese all my life; my mother made it from scratch. I like Panera's version of M%26C - I did not realize it is a vegetarian product. Regardless, I enjoy it and purchase it about once a week. I never get tired of it. I enjoy other Panera products as well and look forward to visiting their stores.

Tasty, clean ingredients

MARY June 1, 2026

I do enjoy making my own mac and cheese but time doesn't allow it, I always have the Panera mac and cheese in the frig. Its not as tasty as my homemade (because I don't use preservatives to keep it fresh, something companies have to add to preserve their product) but Panera is known for their 'clean ingredients' and my family is extremely comfortable eating their mac and cheese. Add pieces of ham or bacon and you just took it to a higher level of deliciousness!

So nice for your mac and cheese lover. They can get home and heat up in microwave and save you from having to boil water and add butter milk. Also kids tend to leave burners on accidentally. Skip the Panera drive thru. Save a pan or possible fire. These are delicious and couldnt be easier on those weeknight late lunches. Theres enough for two people unless you have a male teenager. One can be gone quickly and they are full. Get prepared for the next meal.

Scrummy!!!! 💖

Lilly September 13, 2025

I don't think I can put into words how much I love this product! I don't even normally care terribly much for macaroni and cheese, in general, it's just bland and boring, but for some reason this is just absolutely perfect! Of course I have to admit that I do add some chili crisp to it, but I spice up everything that's not sweet! But regardless, it is truly wonderful, and I am making it a point to have it at least once a week now!

Kid-Approved Comfort Food Win!

Meaghan January 10, 2026

Panera's Mac %26 Cheese is a total win in our house! Creamy, cheesy, and perfectly comforting. My kids absolutely loved it (which says a lot), and I love that it's consistently good every time we order. Simple, satisfying, and definitely kid-approved. We'll be getting this again!

Best Mac and cheese; super comfort food!

Holly September 14, 2025

I LOVE this Mac and cheese, like LOVE IT!!! It's so rich and creamy, very filling! Comfort food! Walmart always has the best price around on this product and occasionally they offer Walmart cash on it too! It comes in a microwave safe container and it can even be used if you wanted to store leftovers as it has a top that snaps on. By far the best Mac and cheese on the market in my opinion!

Dramatic recipe change

Missy May 19, 2025

Something has changed. this last 12 containers I bought are awful. We are unable to eat them. We used to love this product as evidenced by the number of tubs I've bought
