Hello everyone we just moved from the US a week ago and my 3 yr old is having Mac n Cheese withdrawals!!! Anyone know which supermarkets carry mac n cheese, specifically Kraft microwavable singles. I know this is very trivial but we're just getting settled in and trying to make a very smooth transition for our kids. We checked Carrefour as well as Almaya (in JBR), also Choithrams express (in JBR as well)...suggestions appreciated!

Yep.. love this... and now feel like going and buying one. Have bought the box variety of Kraft Mac n Cheese which is normally a serving size of 2 or 4 people. The box gives both stove and microwave options. They are always available at Choithrams on Jumeira Beach Road.

I remember LOVING this as a kid, which is why a few months ago (during a pregnancy craving) when I saw some on the shelf at park and shop, Al Wasl Road, I snapped up a packet, and we had it as a side with our dinner that evening - so they definitely have it in Dubai! I am not sure if they did the microwave singles, but there were a few different types, so you should be able to find something that works for you. I make probably 90% of all our meals from scratch (including mac cheese) but there is absolutely no reason why you can't have these sorts of things in moderation - particularly if they are a little reminder of home! Enjoy!

Can buy the same organic macaroni and cheese (at the same price) at Safestway on Sheikh Zayed Rd.

You can get the organic macaroni and cheese at the organic supermarket in the Dubai Mall.

Lulu definitely sells it. Carrefour often stocks the Crystal's brand but it tastes horrible!

I'll let you know when Choithrams on Beach Rd put it on the "reduced to clear" shelf ;) <em>edited by Apricot on 09/01/2012</em>

I used to buy regular non-micro boxes at Choitrams in Greens when I lived there also Safestway had it a couple weeks ago.

Safestway supermarket on SZR, however in my opinion this is a god time to tell them they don't have Kraft here and make it at home it's healthier than all that processed stuff hope you dont mind the advice http://allrecipes.com/recipe/homemade-mac-and-cheese/ Use wholewheat macaroni and real gruyere or cheddar cheese and they'll taste the difference, in a good way!

I would check Safestway or LuLu in Al Barsha - they tend to have many American brands. Safestway in particular has lots of American brands.

Maybe you'll have to make your own? In over six and half years here never seen frozen/microwave maccaroni cheese let alone one with processed Kraft 'cheese'. Kraft 'cheese' however is available pre-sliced in most supermarkets.
