King Arthur Better Cheddar Cheese Powder, 8 Ounces (Packaging May Vary)

As someone who likes the temper chocolate, and who loves the combination of dark chocolate with maple, roasted pecans and blue cheese powder, I was curious to see if cheddar and chocolate worked well. It does. Of course, most people buying this are going to use it in savory dishes. It would be a great quick addition to Mexican food if you don’t have any cheese in the house, and it’s a practical product to have on hand if you have children who like macaroni and cheese. Also, if you make twice baked potatoes, this powder, with a little milk and butter, or olive oil, would be a yummy filling. Last but not least, you can always sprinkle it on steamed broccoli for a quick , fresh twist and a little extra nutrition.

I use this powder to make “homemade” macaroni and cheese, EASY and CHEESY; but, it’s versatile for other cheesy dishes, too! It smells like cheese and is so easy to use! It is clumpy but smooths out easily to a good consistency when added to milk. The taste is a bit salty (but I don’t like salt so it’s probably good for most) which smooths out in dishes. The size of the jar is good because you don’t need much - the flavor it strong. This makes those boxed mac & cheeses a thing of the past - no long list of ingredients!!

This cheddar powder is great! Personally love it on freshly popped pop corn, so yummy!

Very intense cheddar flavour if used in sufficient quantity, very tasty. Gives one a very slight, almost certainly false, feeling of eating something that Humons Were Not Meant To Consume, but I don't know why as there's nothing bad in it. I've used it both for intensifying the flavour of actual home-made cheese sauces and for mixing with melted butter to be served on vegetables, especially cauliflower. Works very well for both of these. Would probably work wonderfully on home-popped popcorn, but I couldn't say as unfortunately I can no longer eat popcorn.

This works really well as a replacement for boxed Mac and cheese. It has a good flavor and makes a smooth, creamy sauce.

Excellent flavor and we use it to flavor popcorn. Would also work as a seasoning for many recipes.

Tasty but will not save you money if you are using it to make mac n cheese. I should have read label more closely before buying, but to make macaroni you need 1/3 of a cup! That is a significant portion of the entire container. I thought buying in bulk would be smart, but I have done the math and a box of Annies is cheaper and tastes extremely similar. Delicious on popcorn though! I think that is a better use case.

Love this product. I purchase it frequently. Love KA as a company and visit their VT location. Hope to take a class there someday! BUT... this is the second time I received an opened jar with opened seal, loose lid and powder covering the inside of the brown envelope it ships in. This time, about half of the product was gone but there wasn't that much in the envelope so- somebody put the lid back on the jar. The envelope appeared to be re-sealed so somebody along the way knew this damage had happened. It's food. Hygienic handling is necessary! The first time this happened I said nothing because stuff happens. This time Amazon could not replace it because they weren't the seller. They did give a refund. What I don't understand is why this package traveled from NJ to CT to MA? Isn't it made in VT? So while I cant say enough great things about this incredible product I hope KA rethinks its' shipping practices. Maybe make and distribute it from Vermont!
