I'm reviewing a really fun product today that is sure to make my time in the kitchen easier! I'm taking a look at the Rapid Brands Rapid Mac Cooker. Grab one for yourself at https://geni.us/d4te
I paid $1 for mine and it works great just by following the directions
I like mine. Got it at Dollar Tree.
I know you said it would be good to have a snap-on lid because only a huge eater would finish a whole box of macaroni & cheese. Keep in mind a whole box is actually a good amount for any eater because macaroni was intended to be eaten as a main dish…hence macaroni & cheese 'dinner'. Think of it like spaghetti or ziti or similar others considered the main course of a meal. I'm not sure how it ever became known as only a side dish, but oh well.
What wattage microwave oven?
Mine keeps bubbling over.
WOW!! I’m here today because I just found this item (looks different packaging / and is a single blue bowl) AT MY LOCAL DOLLAR STORE IN NY! I grabbed one (thinking “hey it’s a dollar- if anything could use it for a regular bowl” 🤷🏻♀️) so I’m here seeing if the thing actually works,
So glad I found your video! I think I’m going to swing by the dollar store today and grab the rest there!!
I have 2 children that loveee Mac and cheese, and they started out doing the single serving bowls in the microwave; but then they grew so would need to make two at a time to get full! But they’d do that when I didn’t feel like cooking – hence not wanting to fire up the stove those times. So needless to say I’m definitely grabbing what’s left! 😁😁😁
Thanks for the awesome review. It seems they did slightly change but I think looks even cooler! No box – instructions in the silicone feeling of the dish!
(If I can attach pictures I will)
You probably used really cold water at first
I’m glad I don’t have one of these
Wow five years later Dollar Tree has them for $1 each.
Just bought at Dollar Tree for a buck.
I just did it and it cooked the whole way when i pulled it out however it still needs to sit for like 3-5 minutes i stirred it when i put water first
Easy Mac: am I a joke to you?
Not sure what the deal is with mine. We have 3 and it takes way longer than 5 minutes to make a box of mac n cheese. More water as well. The noodles are still chewy when you follow the directions.
I bought this and just did a YouTube review on it. I was seeing if anyone was else reviewed and what they thought. I drained the water on mine . For some reason the noodles still seemed hard
My moms boyfriend (basically my stepdad) got mine, it takes longer than 5 minutes and I have to fill the water a bit higher than the line, but it works nicely. And if I ever need it, he also got me my very own pasta boat 😋 👍🏻
What was the wattage on your microwave? Our first run was problematic, I think it is because we have only 1000 watt.
Is anyone else bothered by the fact that it says it cooks in less than five minutes but he let it sit for and ADDITIONAL five minutes after it came out?
I tried it out just now and it worked perfectly it did boil over alittle bit .
I just got one of these at The Dollar Tree!!
Looks like a giant easy Mac. Think I’m going to get one . I seen it a Walmart for the longest
I got mine at the Dollar Tree….cant remember how much I paid though 🤔
Try Glad press n seal then of you want a sealing plastic wrap. Maybe the store brand wraps you're using don't stick as well.
I think your microwave is just crap lol I have a 1200 whatt microwave
I subscribe to your YouTube channel please subscribe to my YouTube channel .all my YouTube videos are Old because I've been sick .As soon as I get Well I will upload more videos. God is Good

Hot water in an older house may contain lead from the solder in the plumbing so always cook with cold water especially in an older house.
HOT water not cold 230 min STIR 230 mins STIR AND ADD ingredients & ENJOY!!
So, it's been two years since your review of the Rapid Mac Cooker. Do you still use it? I just got one a few weeks ago, and it works good, I usually don't microwave anything, but this is an exception. By the way, the lid idea would be really handy. I'll check out more of your videos.
Sir Ramen can take between 6 to 12 minutes depending on how you cook it. Please tell me how u cook ramen in 2 minutes, when the packaging says it takes 3 minutes.
Cook one more minute and its perfect it dos say Microwaves will vary.
Did you put a full stick of butter in that mac?
This looks kinda neat but it takes very little effort to make homemade which is 1,000,000 times tastier. Whatever floats your boat.
I have one , use the Kraft Mac and cheese it works the best and tastes great
I agree man the off brands of mac and cheese are always better!!! And I can easily eat a whole box but I'm younger and have a bigger appetite 😉
OK I will tweak it again………….I will let you know how it turns out.
Again love your videos!
Just bought this today, and cooked it tonight. I used Kraft Mac thick and creamy. I followed directions to the letter. Cooked for 2.30 minutes, stirred and cook again for an additional 2 minutes. Then added the milk, butter, and dry mix. It thicken up as is sat, but the macaroni was still crunchy. Put back in the microwave for another minute, but it still out crunchy. I will try again using a lower setting in oven, and maybe cooking longer. If I do not get good results back it goes to the store. With that being said I want to thank you for this video, and all your videos.
Old Nerd…I would like to make a suggestion…as I own two of these myself…do not add the milk…I know the box says add the milk…but the left over water inside the mac cooker is enough to dissolve the cheese powder and makes pretty damn good mac and cheese that you can eat a lot faster than the 5 minute cool down you were talking about…
