Earlier this week, I had quite the mystery on my hands. One of my individual Bob Evans mac & cheese containers was half empty, but still sealed. I reached out to the Bob Evans home office to let them know about it, and see if I could get this mystery solved. Here is the email that I received from their customer service:

"Good afternoon Liberty,

I will be the first to admit that I can be a little dramatic when it comes to food issues. My aversion to onions is well known. I refuse to eat expired foods. So, you can only imagine my shock when I opened my 2-pack of Bob Evans Macaroni & Cheese, and found one of the containers practically empty!

Was I having a 'Goldilocks' moment...Had someone been eating my mac & cheese? Upon closer inspection, I realized that both containers were sealed. Now, a normal person would just eat the full container and toss the half-empty one. Or maybe even eaten both of them. But not me. After weighing the pros and cons for 5 minutes, I decided it would be best to just throw them both away.

I mean, if something was wrong with the half-empty one, who's to say that something didn't go wrong with the full one, you just couldn't see it? They both had the same expiration dates, so I assume they were made at the same time. My weirdness took over, and not only did I throw them away, I didn't even open a new package that was in the fridge. My stomach wasn't emotionally ready to handle it. Yes, my stomach has emotions LOL.

I have reached out to Bob Evans to see what the deal is. I'll update you when they get back with me.
