Mac & Cheese is a trending side dish, rising in consumer demand and more restaurants are putting the classic comfort food on their menus. It’s always been a standard offering in diners, but now you’re seeing it in fast food, fast casual and bars.
I’ve done a breakdown of not just the mac & cheese offerings from fast food restaurants and a few bars, but I’ve reviewed some boxed mac & cheese dinners as well.
And then there’s the best mac-n-cheese, making your own from scratch for a baked in the oven delight!
