Kraft NotCo Lactose Free Mac and Cheese, 1 Box, Plant Based, Original Flavor, No Artificial Dyes, Good Source of Iron (15%), 10g of Protein (8% Daily Value), 6 oz

Love this mac and cheese! The Kraft NotCo version tastes delicious just like regular Kraft, and I honestly couldn’t even tell it was lactose free. Super creamy, easy to make, and a great option if you’re sensitive to dairy. Plus, the price on Amazon was even better than what I’ve seen in stores, which made it an even better buy!

Super yummy and easy to make when we're in the RV. Is it healthy? Well, probably not too, but it isn't UNhealthy. It tastes like regular Kraft, no doubt and certainly no less healthy. You'd never find a difference in even a blind taste test! We love it.

We LOVE this Mac+cheese!! Our daughter has a severe allergy to milk, and this is an amazing alternative. Even our 4 year old son (with no allergies) doesn't mind to eat this instead of regular. Yes it does have a different taste than regular Mac+cheese, but the sauce has a similar texture so meets the craving. 🙂 We've tried several other vegan option, and this is by far the best one we've found. We appreciate that it's affordable and safe for our girl and are grateful Kraft meets the dietary need while maintaining high quality!

Taste sweet. Wouldn’t recommend this over the Daiya brand but it’s not terrible.

I was curious. For a long time after becoming vegan, I missed the simple convenience of the traditional "mac and yack" I grew up with. Why couldn't I find a vegan powdered cheese substitute? But then vegan powdered cheese substitutes became available. Some were even pretty good, like Magic Cheese (by Jin) if you want bright orange fake fake cheese, or Country Life if you want something a bit more like a fondue consistency. So I forgot about the traditional "mac and yack". But then Kraft finally hefted its giant bulk up onto the "Plant Based" bandwagon that so many big brands were stumbling onto these days, and I was curious. A $2.50 experiment, why not? Sure, it's sad that the four-for-a-buck box of my youth had inflated to ten times the price despite cheaper ingredients, but I'm middle aged, I don't need to squeeze every penny anymore. Well, Kraft must only be making money off this product from nostalgic vegans like me, who try it once and immediately give up on it. Because this is AWFUL. Not even a little bit cheesy, and the pasta is somehow even MORE sad than I remember it being. Heck, when I was a kid, if there were leftovers, my mother would eat them for lunch the next day, reheated in a cast iron frying pan with a little butter. I can't imagine this surviving a single night in the fridge without reverting to a nasty starchy goop. It practically STARTS as a pile of nasty starchy goop. If you just want to kill your nostalgia, sure, spend $2.50 to put it to bed. But if you want a decent, convenient vegan "mac and yack", there are better options from companies who have been putting in more than a token effort for decades. If you seriously need an all-in-one-box because heating cheese while heating pasta is too much effort, Annie's makes a decent one, and it's cheaper. Or the aforementioned powders you add boiling water to, which per-meal are even cheaper.

I love this mac too much. I could seriously eat several times a week. It’s got trace amounts of nutritional value. I want fuel in the engine, not delicious sludge.

I like this vegan version just as much as the original Kraft Mac and cheese. I have a 12 year old who has been eating it and not noticed the difference at all! It's really nice to have a vegan option that is fast, convenient, nostalgic, and affordable. Usually vegan alternatives are 6x the price for no reason, so this is a pleasant surprise. I've already gotten 6 boxes and will be getting more

Oddly sweet flavor to the cheese? Fine in a pinch, but nobody’s first choice.
