Burger King Thinks Mac N' Cheetos Is Something You Might Eat
Burger King Thinks Mac N' Cheetos Is Something You Might Eat
Burger King is out of control and doesn’t care who it hurts. Being tested in select markets and soon rolling out nationwide, Mac N’ Cheetos are deep-fried macaroni and cheese sticks with Cheetos breading. To put it in old, worn-out meme terms, they heard you liked cheese, so they put cheese in their cheese. Also macaroni. Whatever. They’re basically Burger King’s answer to Taco Bell’s Doritos Locos Tacos, born of a partnership between BK and Frito-Lay. Unlike the Doritos Locos Tacos, which have become a mainstay of Taco Bell’s menu, the Mac N’ Cheetos are a limited release, lasting eight weeks or while supplies last. That should give people plenty of time to make bad decisions. Speaking to Bloomberg, Burger King North American president (how can a king have a president?) Alex Macedo threatens that this will not be the last collaboration between fast food royalty and big snack chip. “We’re working on a few other menu items,” Macedo said. “There’s room for us to do more together in the future.”Snacktaku guess this means it will have to go to Burger King for the first time since those hot dogs came out earlier this year. http://kotaku.com/burger-king-thinks...ght-1782445853 |

Tried today - not good - not bad, hearty, fairly dense. Not the salty outer coating I'd like to have tasted - but nevertheless - fair buy at $2.49 for qty 5 - worth trying for macaroni n cheese folk.

I score them 6 pts. out of 10 pts. - biased due to the fact I don't LOVE mac-n-cheese - otherwise you could add a point, probably a mac-n-cheese fan would point these out somewhere in the 7pts to 7.5pt range.

Well, I tried them. I was running around town and they had the sign up in their window. I was charged $2.69 for a box of 6 of them. I really didn't taste much Cheetos flavor. The exterior was satisfyingly crunchy though and perhaps the interior completely overpowered it. The filling, to me, tasted exactly like a properly made box of mac 'n' cheese. If you like eating mac 'n' cheese out of a box then these will work for you, I found these things to be more appealing because of the crunchy exterior. I would not go out of my way to eat them. In fact I'll never eat them again. But they are edible. Because of my bias against mac 'n' cheese I give them a 2/5. If you're a fan you may bump that to 3/5.

For those who think box mac'n'cheez is the be-all of M&C, try this recipe.
The best M&C I've come across. Don't skimp on ingredients. http://www.dierbergs.com/Recipes/Rec...20and%20Cheese
