Where can I buy SpongeBob SquarePants Kraft Mac & Cheese?
Kraft announced this past Tuesday that Spongebob was finally coming out of his pineapple under the sea and back to the shelves starting next week. “Whether you're reveling in the nostalgic comfort and memories the SpongeBob SquarePants Shapes provide or trying this delicious new shape for the first time, Kraft Mac & Cheese invites you to put yourself first by proudly choosing what makes you feel good, inside and out," a press release announcing the return read.
Originally released in the early 2000s, Kraft lovers have always been hardcore fans of their pals under the sea. So much so, in fact, that they needed to do something about it.
