Michelina’s says: Get all the fun of baked macaroni and all the hearty flavor of beef rolled into one amazing meal. Then cover it in tomato sauce, add green peppers, jalepenos, and all your favorite chili spices and â€” viola! Youâ€™ve got a healthy lunch or dinner thatâ€™ll get you going â€” and keep you coming back for more.

Josh says: Don’t buy this product unless you are feeding 30 absolutely starving young children and you only have $30. (I’d even consider getting those overcooked Taquito-things from 7-11 first). In every other situation, avoid this bland, wretched macaroni beef combo.

wow, this review written by josh is an exercise in conciseness. a 40-word exercise in conciseness. (unless, that is, you count “7-11″ as two words, in which case it’s 41 words.) but i digress. i digress from my mission to make this comment longer than the actual review itself. which i’ve managed to do without even trying. huzzah

I used to love the Michelina’s Lasagna with meat sauce…give it a shot!

If you really want cheap and easy beef and macaroni, skip the frozen food aisle and head for Chef Boyardee’s Cheesy Burger Macaroni. I get a can every time the Chef’s products are on sale. If you eat the whole can (”two servings” - ha!) like me, you will be getting nearly 80% of your Sodium RDA. Pairs well with a cheap merlot.

Um, I’m almost 100% certain this is a dub of an earlier review.

This is the same review (not a duplicate). During the posting process reviewers send me their reviews and pictures and I clean them up and put them into the system. When I’m entering all of the info for a review, I change the post date and time stamp to the date and time when I’d like the review to be posted on HER, then I click ‘Publish’. Unfortunately, you can’t just change the time…you also have to check a little box that says ‘Edit Timestamp’. I don’t always remember to do that, so this review was published instantly and I had to remove it when I realized that had occurred.

*Hates Michealina’s and her sick, twisted budget gourmet products.*
If all frozen meals came from resturaunts, Michealina’s would be white castle. I despise that woman, and I despice her for making me eat her 79 cent maceroni & cheese (regular style, not beefy).

Maaan, you gotta try Stouffer’s Mac n Beef with tomato sauce, it’s extremely delicious, at least it was for me, and I recently (thanks to Mom) got to try this Michelina’s, and it’s DASTARDLY how it smells good enough to eat, but once you eat it the taste you were smelling isn’t there. Evil!
