Takes a little getting used toJul 13, 2009
By Debbie L Since soy and anything made with casein is not an option for us, I was happy to find this mix. This does not taste or smell like cheese (otherwise I would give it 5 stars), and we didn't like it when we first tried it. However, since it is still pretty tasty in its own right, I tried it a few more times, with a few weeks between each time and eventually I found the right thickness for us (I also added a little more salt). This is the case for pretty much all other replacement food items we've tried, because we are on a very restrictive diet which leaves us very few options in the ready-made/semi ready-made category. By now (5 months later) my 5 year old probably can't remember how the real cheese tastes like, so as long as the food is tasty, he is happy. As for me, I am happy to find one more item that can save me some time in food preparation.

Great alternative for gluten dairy & casein freeNov 16, 2009
By K. Salinger
"MBA, MSN, FNP, RN"
This is a great product for those who need gluten, dairy & casein free foods. We use both these individual packets and the boxes with the GF noodles - both are handy and great.
Of course it doesn't taste like REAL macaroni and cheese! Geez - do you really think you can get fake cheese or non-cheese to taste like the real thing?!? If you're looking for something to replicate real cheese or annies GF mac and cheese (which DOES contain dairy) then you will search in vain. You cannot get real cheese flavor from non-cheese products.
However, if you're realistic and are aware that non cheese stuff won't actually taste like cheese yet you want something similar to mac & cheese then this is a great option! We really like this mix and the other roads end products. It has a unique flavorful taste. We tend to alternate this stuff Namaste Foods, Gluten Free Say Cheez Pasta Dish, 9-Ounce Bags (Pack of 6) The Road's end is closer to cheese than the Namaste but again, those who want a real cheese flavor/consistency will be sorely disappointed. However, for those of us who cannot have real cheese this stuff is great.
We mix in veggies with ours (you know the ones that are little squares of carrots, peas, corn, etc.) and I use hemp milk when mixing for a bit more substance and flavor. Also if you add a bit of trocomare A. Vogel Trocomare, 3.2 Ounce Units (Pack of 4) it makes a huge difference in flavor (actually trocomare makes a huge difference in the flavor of everything! We love it and use it on just about everything.
So - for those who expect a real cheese flavor - don't even bother and stick with real cheese or change your expectations.
For those who realize it won't taste like real cheese but who want something different and unique (and gluten, dairy, casein free) - buy this, it's great!!!

So - soApr 19, 2011
By blondie I liked the taste and it was not hard to make but the Chreese had a terrible consistency. It was thick and gloppy - not at all like a smooth sauce. I made it three times with the same result. It's possible I'm doing something wrong, but I believe I am following the directions to a T. That being said, it does taste really good and definitely satisfies a cheese craving. I will continue to use it, but probably won't serve it to guests until I can figure out the consistency issues.

Pretty Good for Fake CheeseAug 17, 2009
By M. Bradley We have been using this "cheese sauce" mix for several years. I make a pretty decent Mac and Cheese with it. Considering we are allergic to all things dairy, this is as close as we get to something cheese-like, so I am not complaining. I add more soy milk and soy margarine....and it has no cholesterol... So, if you can eat real cheese, enjoy. For those of us who cannot, this fills the gap.
