Common questions

Is Kraft Heinz Macaroni & Cheese Original healthy?

Kraft Heinz Macaroni & Cheese Original scores 15/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

What is in Kraft Heinz Macaroni & Cheese Original?

Kraft Heinz Macaroni & Cheese Original lists 33 ingredients, starting with Wheat Flour, Niacin, Folic Acid, Whey and Corn Syrup Solids. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

No. Nothing in Kraft Heinz Macaroni & Cheese Original’s ingredient list matches a seed oil — canola, soybean, corn, cottonseed, grapeseed, sunflower, safflower, rice bran or peanut oil, or an unspecified "vegetable oil".
