Amy says: Well folks, HeatEatReview.com has officially gone international and Abi has designated me your foreign correspondent. The Combino Macaroni Cheese (no, it is not macaroni and cheese) is available in Ireland, but I picked it up at a German market which leads me to believe that it may be available in Deutscheland as well. As I type this, Yanni the pug is keeping me company. Yanni was deeply covetous of the macaroni cheese, but I refused to succumb to her begging for HeatEatReview’s sake and consumed the entire can. Fortunately for me, there are no daily percentages on european products so while I knew what I was eating terrible for my mind, body and maybe even soul, I had no idea just how bad it was. Ignorance is bliss.

This is the second mac and cheese item I have reviewed for this site and let me tell you, this one came in second place. The sauce was runny and the noodles were mushy. The taste wasn’t terrible, but after partaking in some of my auntie’s homemade mac and cheese over the weekend I should have known better than to start my international reviews on this low note. Perhaps I am being overly critical, I did finish off the entire can, despite its’ recommendation that I eat only 1/4 of it. It reminded me of a crappy watered-down version of Chef Boy Ardee and Mr. Ardee would not get 5 stars on this HeatEatReview.com, unless maybe Nicole was reviewing the meal. She loves that junk. I would eat this meal again seeing as how it was under a dollar and I am incredibly broke at the moment, but if you have a euro or so to spare, I would recommend getting uhhh, a different European macaroni and cheese. I bid you foodies adieu until my next review.
