Today, I want to talk about something I’ve been digging into – just how much cash do those mac n’ cheese sales bring in for Georgia? I mean, who doesn’t love a good bowl of cheesy pasta, right? So, I rolled up my sleeves and got to work.
First off, I started looking around to see what the general consensus is on mac n’ cheese sales. I found out that sales have actually gone up by like 25% in the last four years. That’s a lot of cheese! And get this, a report from way back in 2010 said the same thing – a 25% increase in just four years. This stuff is seriously popular.
Next, I tried to figure out what this means for Georgia specifically. It turns out, the U.S. is a big cheese producer, like second biggest in the world last year, pumping out over six million metric tons of the stuff. Now, I couldn’t find the exact number for Georgia’s mac n’ cheese sales, but you gotta figure with all that cheese production, a good chunk of it is going towards our beloved mac n’ cheese.
I also stumbled upon some interesting tidbits about the business side of things. For example, calculating the profit margin on cheese. There’s this formula: Profit Margin = (Net Profit / Revenue) x 100. Seems simple enough, but I bet there’s a lot more to it when you’re running a big cheese business. Oh, and did you know Kraft Foods sells over one million boxes of their mac and cheese every single day? That is a whole lot of mac and cheese.
Then I went down a bit of a rabbit hole looking at different brands. I saw something about Bojangles, which is apparently a fast-food joint in the Southeast U.S. They sell chicken and biscuits, but I’m guessing they probably have mac n’ cheese on the menu too. And of course, there’s Costco’s Kirkland Signature mac n’ cheese. I even found their cooking instructions and nutrition info. Seems like everyone’s got their own version of this classic dish.
But back to Georgia. While I couldn’t get the exact dollar amount, it’s pretty clear that mac n’ cheese is a big deal. With sales on the rise and the U.S. being a major cheese producer, I think it’s safe to say that mac n’ cheese sales are bringing in a pretty penny for Georgia. It also made me realize how much I love cheese and how popular it is.

It’s been a fun little investigation. It just goes to show, you never know what you’ll learn when you start digging into something as simple as mac n’ cheese. I mean it is not simple and the sales number must be very very big. I think I’ll go make myself a bowl now. Who’s with me?
