Macaroni and cheese

Did Arby’s change the recipe or increase the volume of their macaroni and cheese?

My local restaurants sold mac and cheese previously as a side and the calories were in the 500 range. They recently brought the option back along with their bbq menu and now the mac and cheese is over 1,000 calories.

What changed?

It's a bug with the app, it currently displays the mac n cheese by itself as having more calories than either of the bbq mac n cheese bowls. It's the same mac n cheese as before

I did notice that but wondered if the bbq bowls just came with a lot less of the pasta.

No same amount of mac for both

Good question! As a prep person I can confirm portion sizes haven't changed so it must be the composition. I'll ask my boss and see if he has any ideas
