@@sleevoc from my experience, they taste like vomit, although i enjoy mac and cheese and cheetos, both mixed together just aint my thing. i will agree with postaffe though, the jalapeno one was not half bad
@@sodbear buy the jalapeño box and then fix up the cheese sauce some and its pretty good. After you drain the pasta, then keep it separated. If you made your mac and cheese in a pot, then take that same pot and put milk( just enough to coat the bottom or more if u like it a bit wet), butter(1-2 tbs), cheese (any type will do) or 1 slice of kraft singles and then the jalapeño packet and stir until it starts to bubble and the power is mixed well. Take it off the heat and add the pasta. Bam, Mac and cheese 10 times better.
a 1 man podcast every 2 or so weeks where ben just sits down and rambles would be great, ben has so many interesting stories, i guess he could do a "normal" style mukbang where he sits down for an hour and eats while talking, but the podcast idea sounds great!
I’d actually be down for the solo podcast. I really just watch your content because your a cool dude that’s pretty funny. Could be a second channel thing or something like that. Keep up the vids tho👍
Just found your channel randomly. I'm glad I did, you make everything look so good with the way you eat it and the reviews are super chill and helpful.
@@davidp6913 what does that have to do with ANYTHING? He’s funnier and laid back because he had a home invader incident? What the fuck are you talking about?
You gotta get the box version of the flamin hot, add butter and a little milk or cream, dont leave so much water in it, and wait for it to cool down so you can actually taste it and its bomb!
For me the jalapeño one is best, but I never follow directions. I heat up some cream, whisk in the cheese powder til it’s smooth, and add in 1-2 Kraft single slices. Mix the noodles into that, and if your like me add in leftover taco meat and fried up onions and bell peppers. Sooo good!
The white powder stuff I believe is indeed some type of startch that keeps microwavable pasta from clumping together. Years ago when I was in my early teens, I would always have my mom and dad get me the microwavable Kraft Mac & Cheese bowls and the first one I ever opened, I was like "What the hell is wrong with this pasta?" I thought it had some type of mold or something cultivating in it, but I had to read to see that it was supposed to be like that. It looks sus when you first see it. Also, I've only had the Flamin' Hot Cheetos one, but the microwavable version is not the way to go. In the box and boiled in a pot is much better, then you add a bit of butter and maybe a splash of milk. Then it's pretty delicious.
The moment Ben read the instructions not to drain the water is the moment I realized that this Mac and Cheese wasn't gonna be anything special. I know the white powder is a thickening agent, but that seems to be no replacement for actual milk based on what i've seen here. I honestly would've drained the water after the noodles were done (regardless of the instructions) and put in like 2-3 shot glasses of milk then put the cheese powder in and stirred it. Adding in extra shot glasses of milk as/if needed until it was creamy.
Wow this is insane, i hadnt watched you in about 3-4 years, your voice has changed so much haha. That's crazy! Hope youre well. BTW have you had any updates with your adoption story?
Cheetos mac and cheese was a complete game changer for me I love The bold and cheesy oh my gosh it is so delicious I literally could eat it every single day and I wouldn't get sick of it
@@Shoot.orGetShot same, I had these so hyped up in my head before getting them. I just tried them and they taste horrible, only the jalapeno one was somewhat decent but I had to add actual hot cheetos to even make it taste good
The difference in flavor between the boxed and microwavable versions of this product are actually pretty significant in my experience. You'd probably enjoy the regular boxxed version, but this easy mac version really is just bad in comparison.
this may be off-topic, but how do you light and film your videos? compared to other food review youtubers, the cinematography in your vids has more...class.
Why are they listed at different sizes/grams? Did anyone notice that? 60, 64 and 66 grams respectively. Is it simply the difference in weight of seasonings? PS the pre-microwave powder for the water is a formulated powder that helps the water boil, penetrate the noodles and cook them in short time and also not boil over.
Why don't you get an overhead camera that provides a top-down view of what you're eating? It will not only be much easier to show off the food for you, but it will enhance the production quality for us viewers as well.
If you can find the one's in the box, and cook them on the stove, they're way better. I haven't/won't try the flaming hot just cause I hate those Cheetos but yes, the Jalapeno is the best, even the actual jalapeno Cheetos are the best.
I haven't tried the others, but the jalapeno one slaps to me. I used to eat them all the time as a snack at work. Every now and then when I'm in the store I'll grab a couple. Definitely recommend to try it out for anyone curious.
The powder is a thickener that activates at boiling temp, so you cook it, it boils, then you put in the cheese and it starts to thicken, they dont put it in the cheese powder cuz it has to be activated by the boiling temperature. It wont be hot enough by the time you mix in the cheese powder.
I tried the regular kind a while ago and I felt the same way. It was just ok. If it was offered to me at a friends house I'd eat it but I personally wouldn't go out of my way to get it again. I'll have to try the jalapeño one tho. Jalapeño Cheetos are arguably better than the original ones.
same here, the jalapeno mac n cheese was decent but not something I'd eat again or go out of my way to get. the flamin red ones were horrible and I haven't tried the cheese one yet. it isn't that good as everyone makes it out to be
The cheesy jalapeño one actually isn’t all that bad, glad to see you trying them out!
Like I’ve seen these Cheeto Mac cheese in stores but I never thought of buying it it kinda looks bad quality
@@sleevoc from my experience, they taste like vomit, although i enjoy mac and cheese and cheetos, both mixed together just aint my thing. i will agree with postaffe though, the jalapeno one was not half bad

Ik im the same way, gotta do a double take
Ofc he is not going to throw them away? Even if he doesn't like it...smh
Ey, it's 12 dollars, if it's edible for me I'll finish it.
you never fail to make banger videos! it's definitely an unwritten rule to let the Kraft sit out a lil bit to thicken up haha!
The solo podcast idea sounds awesome, you are so pleasant to listen to. I would love to hear more interesting sotires and opinions from you.

I recommend trying these again but with the boxes they sell. The method of making them is much better than the microwavable counterparts.
I actually tried the box once, it wasn't bad but it was kinda close.
Soupy mac and cheese lol. When you gotta slurp that stuff, you know it was cooked wrong.
bruh U should say that man
Another great vid thank you Ben! Please please please do a podcast of you rambling! Half the reason I watch is just to hear your voice!!
START THE PODCAST!!! I'D LISTEN EVERYDAY!! Even if it's on Patreon only
I wasn't too impressed with these when I tried them either. I do recommend Cheddar Jalapeño Cheetos though, they are probably my favorite!
It's good if you mix in a slice of moz and add some parm over the top.

He is really a food lover bro... Normally people would stop eating if they don't like it.. This guy doesn't waste food... Love that part about him
1:30 “some OT Genesis stuff up in here man” nahh famm i cantt that caught me so off guard 😭😭😂😭
i love when you talk more in your videos, your personality is funny asl without you even trying 😭
PLEASE do some podcast ramblings. Could listen to you talk about anything for hours no joke
Definitely start a podcast that would be sick. Ide listen to it
my favorite is the cheesy jalapeno too! But I prefer the boxed version instead because you use milk and it's more tasty imo.
Ive had all of the flavors of the mac n cheese, my fav is the jalapeno one
Yeah the jalapeno flavor is great. I was highly disappointed with the flamin hot flavor, shit was pretty bland.
I came in the comments just to say that lol. I was expecting it to be trash but I was surprised. Shit slaps
Same
You honestly should make a podcast and talk about random stuff. Most of us would definitely listen to it 🙌
You can never go wrong with the ‘47s and New era caps.

i got a cheetos mac and cheese ad before this
yo i love the talking, you should do a podcast!
LOVE your hat. Where did you purchase it?? Not a Bulls fan but hat's dope.
guys just know that just cause he doesnt like the flaming hot one doesnt mean you wont cause i personally love it more than the others
I can't get enough of this channel 😭
Nice and chill video. Really good.
📢 BEN, Your new one man podcast name:
MIGHTY FINE RAMBLING 😀
I actually love these! Bussin!
The white powder is probably corn starch which is why you should stir for 3-4 mins and let it sit for a while to thicken
Korean living in Chicago love your videos boss

Why did I get mac and cheese ad when I played this video lol too perfect
Those are pretty good. I got some in my pantry stocked up along with regular mac n cheese. Get a custom hat.
If you find yourself in a position to get the regular box versions, try them again. Microwave mac and cheese bowls never taste quite right.
The real talk is fire keep it up love ur videos
You ever going to move back to the states? Just curious--- BLESS YOU for your sneeze lol
Your right the white stuff is a thickening powdee
bro why he stood like that lookin at the mac n cheese LOL 2:09
i think the whiter stuff is starch, maybe some cheeky MSG
love 47 hats, they're super comfortable and high quality
Cool video. I'ma try them. Do the ramble!
theyre pretty good i like to drain half the water once its done heated up
As soon as I clicked the video I got a Cheetos Mac and cheese ad
"I don't like it!"
Proceeds to eat entire cup.
😂
I don’t think he likes to waste food so that’s probably why
cheesy jalapeno is actually pretty good. I enjoy it
That's why they tell YOU to stir and let it sit a few minutes, probably would had tasted a bit better.. Deen!😊
Ayyy reppin' the Bulls! I got the same '47 hat but with the red logo in the front from Ebay.
If you can find the one's in the box, and cook them on the stove, they're way better. I haven't/won't try the flaming hot just cause I hate those Cheetos but yes, the Jalapeno is the best, even the actual jalapeno Cheetos are the best.
I tried out the spicy one, and for me i wasn’t really a fan😢! But, im glad you still tried it!!
