About ""WORLD'S BEST"" MAC & CHEESE
Beecher's World's Best Mac and Cheese is a premium frozen prepared macaroni and cheese product from Beecher's Handmade Cheese, a company founded in Seattle's Pike Place Market in 2003 by Kurt Beecher Dammeier. The name is aspirational branding that the company stands behind with genuine craft cheese credentials, as Beecher's produces its own artisan cheeses including the Flagship variety that anchors this product.
The mac and cheese uses penne rigate rather than the traditional elbow macaroni, offering a sturdier pasta shape that holds sauce in its ridges. The Flagship sauce is made in-house using Beecher's Flagship Cheese, a semi-hard cow's milk cheese similar in style to a mild gruyere or Cheddar, along with Just Jack cheese, another Beecher's house variety. Butter and wheat flour form a roux that thickens the sauce. Chipotle puree adds a subtle smoky heat character that distinguishes this recipe from conventional cheddar-only mac and cheese formulas. Dehydrated garlic and salt round out the seasoning. Additional Flagship cheese is stirred in separately for a grittier, more pronounced cheese presence.
At 222 calories per 225-gram serving with 10.2 grams of fat and 20.9 grams of carbohydrates, this is among the more restrained frozen mac and cheese products in calories relative to serving size. The protein content of 10.2 grams reflects the substantial cheese content. Fiber at 0.9 grams per serving comes from the pasta and vegetable ingredients.
Beecher's builds its brand around transparency in dairy sourcing and craftsmanship. The World's Best Mac and Cheese is the company's best-known retail product and is widely distributed through premium grocery channels nationally.
