Customers find the product nutritious and gluten-free. They appreciate its value for money. However, some customers have reported issues with the texture and sauce consistency.

Tastes good and healthy
I love this pasta. It has lots of protein (I recommend adding nutritional yeast for extra) and made of veggies. It’s super easy and quick to make. Warning: it doesn’t taste like normal Mac and cheese but that was obvious given the ingredients. Make sure to boil pasta for only 3-5 mins since it softens pretty fast. I feel like a lot of negative reviewers need to grow up. This pasta will not taste like Kraft because it is made of veggies and lentils but if you’re looking for a tasty, healthy, shelf stable , dairy/gluten free meal I HIGHLY recommend.

My Vegan/Gluten Free Favorite
I have Celiac disease and cannot have dairy or soy now, either. I tried other vegan mac and cheese products, but they tasted like cheese-smell, more than cheese.I found this one and decided to try it. I like that it’s not pretending to taste like cheese, which seemed like a plus, since powdered vegan cheeses tend to taste like cheese-smell to me.My favorite way to prepare it is with vegan butter and adding vegan parmesan after I make it. (Adding the vegan parm is why I don’t give this a full-five star rating.)I actually crave this now.

Love the product, but shorted a box
My daughter loves this pasta alternative. However this time I was shorted a box of sweet potato pumpkin. I ordered the 8 count box and only received 7 individual boxes. What was weird is the Annie’s box it came in was taped in a different direction, almost like someone opened the Annie’s shipping box, took one box out, then taped the box back in a different way.

Shake to mix!
Not the best tasting then but definitely worth it to have on hand when price is low.Really difficult to mix. Recommend putting milk and powder in a mason jar with a lid and shaking it up. Definitely better than what the recommend on the box – it stays lumpy even in boiling water if you try to mix it normally.

Oddly bland
Big fan of Annie’s Shells & White Cheddar. Wanted a vegan Mac alternative and picked the Vegan Mac Gluten Free Red Lentil Spirals. Donated the last couple of vegan Mac products that I tried to charity with some guilt and concern that they will not be recognized as food by my fellow man. You need to appreciate going in that the sauce in this particular varietal is not cheese flavore sauce. This product has so little flavor that I had wondered for a second if I had the ‘rona again and had lost my sense of taste. The sweet potato pumpkin powder packet also produces very little sauce and I don’t like the flavor that I can discern. I have tried adding spices and mixing it in with Chik’n Noodle soup.

Yum, but not really Mac and cheese
I really like this pasta. If you like sweet potato or squash pasta sauces, you will like this, but if you are expecting a Mac and cheese substitute, this isn’t that. I will say, mixing the powder with liquid before adding to noodles helps with the slight graininess, if it bothers you. I keep this on hand for quick and yummy meals.

Hits the spot
I have several food allergies, and this is the first product I’ve found that satisfies my craving for mac and cheese in a safe, nutritious way. I’m so glad this exists!!

Bland and noodles fell apart
I love this brand and that they are very healthy, though the noodles turned to mush almost instantly after boiling and they had little to no flavor. My kids wouldn’t even eat it. I’d definitely recommend their other flavors though all others types I’ve tried have not had this issue and are yummy!
