What the sources say about these ties
Lactalis licensed
Kraft Heinz granted Groupe Lactalis perpetual licences to the Kraft and Velveeta brands for certain cheese products when it sold its natural cheese business; Kraft Heinz kept the Velveeta processed cheese business in the US and Canada
The Kraft Heinz Company owns
Kraft Heinz publishes the Velveeta brand and product pages; from date is the completion of the Kraft Foods Group-Heinz merger (per Wikipedia's Kraft Foods Group article)

Built from the ownership rows on the brand and company pages, each cited where it is recorded. Made in is the country of production on this product's record; the GS1 prefix of a barcode names the issuing organisation, not where the product was made.

About this product

Velveeta Shells & Cheese Broccoli is a 9.4 oz (267 g) box of shell pasta sold with a pouch of cheese sauce and dried broccoli florets, a stovetop macaroni and cheese for the United States market that the maker says makes about two servings.[2][1] Kraft Heinz Foods Company of Chicago is printed as the distributor, and the label lists a cheese sauce of whey, canola oil and cheddar cheese, then enriched macaroni product, dried broccoli and sugar.[3] A 4.5 oz serving carries 400 kcal and 1,130 mg of sodium, figures the maker's own page repeats.[3][1] USDA's 2023 label record gives the same ingredient statement.[4]

The barcode is older than the shells: the original Barcodepedia page of 2007 titled it Kraft Velveeta Rotini & Cheese with Broccoli in 9.4 oz boxes.[5] It belongs to the Velveeta Shells & Cheese line.[1]

Coverage measures the evidence recorded here. It does not rate the product.

  • Identity: 3 / 3 · Name, brand and classification recorded
  • Context: 4 / 5 · Evidence groups assigned to a researched label, edition or analysis
  • Label photographs: 0 / 4 · Researched contexts with an assigned photograph
  • United States box, back panel photographed 2023: nutrient evidence: 30 / 30 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • USDA Branded Foods label record, 2023: nutrient evidence: 14 / 14 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • Kraft Heinz United States product page, read 2026-09-25: nutrient evidence: 15 / 15 · Recorded nutrient rows linked to a source; not the number of nutrients that ought to exist
  • identity · unknown: No photo shows a "Product of" statement, so country_of_origin is left empty
  • relationships · unknown: The manufacturing plant is not named on the photographed panels; only the Kraft Heinz Foods Company distributor block is printed
  • evidence · disputed: Open Food Facts' typed per-100 g figures (337 kcal, salt 1.12 g against sodium 952 mg) are inconsistent with each other and with the printed panel; the photos were transcribed instead
  • identity · unknown: The 2007 page names Rotini & Cheese with Broccoli under this barcode; when the pasta changed from rotini to shells is open
  • markets · not_researched: Walmart, Target, Dollar General and regional grocers list a 9.4 oz Velveeta Shells & Cheese Broccoli box, but their pages refused automated reads on 2026-09-25, so no shelf price is recorded
