Velveeta Mini Shells & Cheese 10.1 oz: version 1
Saved 2026-09-25 12:18 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added Velveeta Mini Shells & Cheese 10.1 oz (00021000072798), the wanted barcode named by family/velveeta-shells-cheese. Identity from the Kraft Heinz US product page for this GTIN (unit size 10.1 OZ, ingredients, allergens) and its 2026 front and Nutrition Facts images (transcribed per serving and per box); older figures kept as their own observations: the maker page structured data and USDA FDC 2594738 (2023) agree with the 2025 Open Food Facts front photo (940 mg sodium) against the 2026 panel image (950 mg), recorded as a disputed nutrition gap. Markets: maker page, Amazon.com B07N4MRBFD (prints UPC, no price shown from outside the US), Country Mart USD 4.85 and Market Basket USD 5.09 (both print gtin14). Owner Kraft Heinz Foods Company; prefix owner per the company stub (Inmar 2025). No new stubs.. Current is v3.

## About <!--about-->
Velveeta Mini Shells & Cheese is a 10.1 oz (287 g) box of small shell pasta packed with a pouch of Velveeta cheese sauce, the mini-shell version of Velveeta Shells & Cheese Original.[^kh][^khfront] Kraft Heinz sells it in the United States; the pasta is boiled on the stovetop, drained and mixed with the sauce, and one box makes about 2.5 one-cup servings.[^kh][^usda] The current label declares 360 calories and 950 mg sodium per 4 oz (113 g) serving, 900 calories for the whole box, and the ingredient list opens with enriched macaroni product followed by a cheese sauce of whey, canola oil and cheddar cheese.[^khnfp][^kh]
The box photographed on a store shelf in February 2025 carried a round "made with real cheese" badge and a front nutrition strip printing 940 mg sodium per serving.[^front2025] The maker's 2026 front replaces the badge with a red panel adding "no artificial dyes" and "12g protein per serving", and its Nutrition Facts panel prints 950 mg sodium and 12 g protein.[^khfront][^khnfp]
