Velveeta Shells & Cheese Original 48 oz: version 1
Saved 2026-09-27 03:27 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added Velveeta Shells & Cheese Original 48 oz (GTIN 00021000070763), the four-box pack named by family/velveeta-shells-cheese-original. Sources: the Kraft Heinz US product page for this GTIN (pack contents, serving, Nutrition Facts, ingredients, allergens, real-cheese claim) and USDA FoodData Central record 2676060 (brand owner, 48 oz/3 lbs, an older 2022 ingredient order and per-100 g figures), kept as two observations with a disputed gap. GS1 prefix owner per the company stub (Inmar 2025). Amazon.com searched: only four-box bundles under the 12 oz box UPC 021000658930 (identity/markets gaps); Target carries only the 12 oz and 36 oz sizes. No Open Food Facts record, so no licensed photo.. This is the current version.

| | images | unknown | No openly licensed photograph of the 48 oz pack exists: Open Food Facts has no record for this barcode, and the Kraft Heinz page shows the 12 oz box image | |
| | markets | unknown | Amazon.com (2026-09-27): searched the barcode 021000070763, "Velveeta Shells Cheese Original 4 boxes 48 oz" and the brand Velveeta; the two four-box listings found, B072FJYB1Y and B00E3JJ492, print UPC 021000658930, the single 12 oz box's code, and showed no featured offer | ^amazon |
| | identity | disputed | Amazon.com sells four 12 oz boxes (48 oz) under the 12 oz box's UPC 021000658930 rather than 021000070763; they may be bundles of single boxes rather than this pack | ^amazon |
| | markets | unknown | Target (pricing store 3991) offers this line only as the 12 oz box and the 36 oz three-box pack, and no other retailer listing printing this barcode was read; walmart.com refused the automated search | ^target |
| usda-2022 | evidence | disputed | The maker's page and the USDA label record give different cheese sauce ingredient orders and different figures (360 kcal and 880 mg sodium per 112 g serving on the maker's page; 339 kcal and 812 mg sodium per 100 g in USDA, about 380 kcal per serving); the maker's page repeats the 12 oz box's data | ^kh |
| | identity | unknown | country_of_origin is left empty: neither the maker's page nor USDA states where the pack is made | |
| | packaging | unknown | How the four boxes are bundled (shrink wrap or carton) is not stated by the maker's page or USDA | |

## About <!--about-->
Velveeta Shells & Cheese Original 48 oz is a pack of four 12 oz boxes of Velveeta Shells & Cheese Original, shell pasta with a packet of creamy cheese sauce that is stirred into the boiled, drained shells.[^kh] Kraft Heinz lists it on its United States site as the 48 oz size of the Original line, beside the single 12 oz box, the 24 oz Value Size and the three-box 36 oz pack.[^kh] Each box makes about three servings of 4 oz (112 g), roughly a cup, which the maker's page gives as 360 calories.[^kh] USDA FoodData Central records the barcode under brand owner Kraft Heinz Foods Company with a package weight of 48 oz (3 lb).[^usda] The sauce is made with cheddar cheese, and the pack declares wheat and milk.[^kh]
The maker's page lists skim milk first in the cheese sauce, followed by cheddar cheese and canola oil, while USDA's label record, last modified in August 2022, starts with whey, cheddar cheese and milk and gives 339 kcal per 100 g.[^kh][^usda] Amazon.com sells four-box bundles of the line under the single 12 oz box's UPC.[^amazon]
