The Kraft Mac & Cheese Article you would just
Kraft Heinz revealed on Monday that three months ago it quietly replaced artificial flavors, preservatives, and dye from its signature macaroni and cheese dinners.Calling it the “world’s largest blind taste test,” the company said that it nixed the artificial dyes Yellow 5 and 6 and replaced them with paprika, annatto, and turmeric to achieve its signature neon color. Quietly appearing on store shelves in December, Kraft said it has since sold 50 million boxes—the same amount as usual –without anyone noticing.
“We’d invite Americans to try our new recipe, but they most likely already have,” said Greg Guidotti, vice president of meals at Kraft Heinz in a statement.
The new comes without any new branding, but does include the new ingredients on the label—that is if you were looking for it.
The switch wasn’t a total surprise. Last April, Kraft said it would change the ingredients in its iconic macaroni and cheese to appeal to today's health conscious consumers. The company thought that not telling the public would preempt any consumer perceptions that changing with the recipe would hurt the taste.

They did something to it a long time ago. It started tasting diluted and I stopped buying it.
I haven’t eaten it in years…….until I bought some yesterday to eat with ham. I noticed a difference, like it lost its flavor, and thought I didn’t add enough milk or butter. Nope–it was the mix.

Ya it’s not that good anymore. Last time I had it, it made me sick
My son noticed immediately. He went from asking for it a few times a week to hardly at all.
we noticed it when it changed. mac n cheese isn’t on our menu anymore unless i make homemade 😉
I stopped buying it too. They changed it. It has lost all of it’s cheese flavor. The cheese sauce is watered down.
yes it is not the same and my kids dont like it as much. I rarely make it anymore I always have added my own touches to it anyway like using whole milk and some real cheddar cheese and a pinch of minced fresh garlic or garlic powder. and a generous amount fresh ground or reg black pepper
