Kraft Heinz review: turned to mush! 4

Yes same thing has happened to me but only with the shapes. And it doesn't taste very good when it's all mushy

The last 2 boxes of original mac and cheese that I cooked turned to mush also. Neither had expired and I only cook them 7 minutes (el dente). I don't know if I will buy anymore because I am on disability and don't have money to waste!

Agreed! We bought a mega pack of Mac and cheese from Sam's club. We eat it a lot with fish during Lent. At first I thought it was my son's issue and cooking it too long. Then I went to make it. The water turned white then got really thick. In less than five minutes the noodles were cooked and mushy. I read about modified food starch being in it to keep the water from boiling over. Tonight I tried pouring it into a drainer first to remove and starch. Nothing came out. Then I rinsed it first and it got sticky. After a few minutes, it started getting a little mushy so I rinsed it in cold water and mixed the sauce in a separate pan. After mixing the two, it was still very mushy. The cooking pan was coated with a thick white "sauce" after pouring out the noodles before adding the sauce.

My kids love Mac n cheese and lately the mac n cheese is off. I will not be buying mac n cheese anymore. It's a waste of money now for crap food that just turns mushy and ends up in the garbage. I refuse to feed it to my kids. Now tonight my son refuses to eat anything else i have offered him, all because he wanted mac n cheese and now he can't have any so thank you Kraft for ruining something my kids have loved to eat.
