Summary of reviews
These mac and cheese bites offer a convenient snack option with a crunchy exterior, but opinions on flavor vary widely. While some guests appreciate the cheesy taste and ease of preparation, others find them bland and overly breaded. They are often enjoyed as a quick snack, especially when cooked in an air fryer, but the limited quantity and inconsistent flavor are common concerns.

My boyfriend loves Mac and cheese bites so we tried this, you only get 7 but no big deal. I air fryer them, they are so flavorless. I thought I was crazy but then he had a bite and they’re so bland. He said they taste like cardboard and I agree. Wouldn’t recommend or buy again
It was okay

10 out of 10 won’t buy again. Breading was really thick and the Mac and cheese tasted like Stouffer’s.

they’re not the worst nor the best. they’re good for a quick easy lunch in the air fryer. if they were cheaper i would continue to buy them, but $5 for 7 of these is wild to me only bc they’re not that good for the price and amount.. the math isn’t mathing. trader joe’s has really good ones, double in size with real authentic cheese and they’re the same cost if not cheaper for 8 of them, i will stick with those.
just not good

I bought these before reading the reviews, and after seeing the reviews, feared for the worst. However, my first bite surprised me. First, they're not bland. I like spicy, flavorful food and I definitely wouldn't call these bland. Second, they DO taste cheesy and like Mac and Cheese. However, the breading and cheese have an odd plastic taste that makes me unable to eat more than 2 of these at a time. For that reason, I think the price is fair granted I get to eat it as a side with my chicken sliders 3x a week (2 pieces each time). I microwave 2 pieces for ~30 seconds and they come out great. Not crispy, of course, but I don't yet have an air dryer and don't mind the ‘soggy’ breading.

Edible but not enjoyable. I don't think there is any seasoning in this. Just carb and fake cheese.

Honestly I used to love these in college cause I could make them and just nibble during homework but they’re horrible right now. I just threw them all away because I couldn’t stand the taste and they kept falling apart. They also didn’t cook right in the oven.
Flavor deprived

There’s no flavor A N Y W H E R E. No flavor in the cheese sauce or even the breading itself. Don’t do like I did, and look forward to enjoying this. Keep your expectations low on this one. it’s not restaurant quality or even home made quality. Expect crumby flavorless macaroni bites.
