Kraft Mac&cheese Topping (Discontinued)


GFM

Recommended Posts

GFM Apprentice

I recently learned that the 3 oz. containers of Kraft Mac&Cheese cheese topping (yes - the powdery orange stuff) has been discontinued. It was my quick go-to product to make mac&cheese in the morning for school lunches. Does anyone know of a similar product? I've contacted Kraft asking them to reconsider, but I'm not expecting much.

Velveeta cheese? Not powder, but still has a great shelf life and melts nicely.

Here is the one we use. Open Original Shared Link

DO NOT BUY The Cheese sauce powder, it does contain wheat.

The Cheddar Cheese Powder is from Kraft, it does not contain wheat and it is the same thing they use in their mac and cheese, this is information that Barry Farms told me on the phone.

I have NO idea if they will stop making and selling it to Barry farms at some point. I would buy extra and store in freezer.

Oh? I read the ingredients on the link you posted. Where is the wheat? I don't see it in the list.

The woman I spoke with on the phone told me the Cheese sauce powder contains wheat but the Cheddar Cheese Powder from Kraft doesn't. I didn't see wheat listed either, just taking her word for it. Here is the number 419-741-0155

We've ordered the Cheddar cheese sauce powder for a few years and I've never had a problem with it.

Thanks for the suggestions. I appreciate the help!

Bulk barn has cheese sauce poweder, but that's taking a risk even if it is gluten free on its own.

      @Scott Adams That's actually exactly what I ended up asking for— vodka tonic with Titos.  I saw on their website that Tito's is certified gluten-free (maybe many of the clear vodkas are, I don't know, I just happened to look up Tito's in advance). I should have actually specified the 'splash' though, because I think with the amount of tonic she put in there, it did still end up fairly sweet.  Anyway, I think I've almost got this drink order down!

      Be interesting to see the effects of dairy reintroduction with gluten. As well as milk protein sensitivity in and of itself the casein part particularly has been shown to mimic gluten in about 50% of celiacs. Keep us posted!

      She has been dairy free for six years, so she’d already been dairy free for two years at her last testing and was dairy free for the entire gluten challenge this year as well (that had positive results). However, now that we’re doing another biopsy in six weeks, we decided to do everything we can to try to “see” the effects, so we decided this past week to add back in dairy temporarily for breakfast (milk and cereal combo like you said).

      Hi Christiana, Many thanks for your response.  Interestingly, I too cannot eat wheat in France without feeling effects (much less than in the US, but won't indulge nonetheless).  I also understand children are screened for celiac in Italy prior to starting their education. Wise idea as it seems my grandson has the beginning symptoms (several celiacs in his dad's family), but parents continue to think he's just being difficult.  Argh.  There's a test I took that diagnosed gluten sensitivity in 2014 via Entero Labs, and am planning on having done again.  Truth be told, I'm hoping it's the bromine/additives/preservatives as I miss breads and pastas terribly when home here in the states!  Be well and here's to our guts healing ❤️

      Lol that’s so true! Hope you get clarity, it’s tough when there’s doubt. There’s so much known about celiac disease with all the scientific research that’s been done so far yet practically and clinically there’s also so much unknown, still. Out of curiosity what’s her dairy consumption like? Even compared to early years to now? Has that changed? Calcium is dependent in the mechanism of antigen presenting cells in the gut. High calcium foods with gluten grains can initiate inflammation greater.  This is why breakfast cereals and milk combo long term can be a ticking time bomb for genetically susceptible celiacs (not a scientific statement by any means but my current personal opinion based on reasoning at present). Milk and wheat are the top culprits for food sensitivity. Especially in childhood. There are also patient cases of antibodies normalising in celiac children who had milk protein intolerance/ delayed type allergy. Some asymptomatic. There were a couple of cases of suspected celiacs that turned out to have milk protein intolerance that normalised antibodies on a gluten containing diet. Then there were others that only normalised antibodies once gluten and milk was eliminated. Milk kept the antibodies positive. Celiac disease is complicated to say the least.
