Elbow macaroni comes coated in a thick, smooth cheese sauce, with no baked top or breadcrumb layer. The sauce reads as cheddar-forward and leans creamy and slightly salty, while the pasta is cooked soft, more in the stovetop style than al dente. Sold as a regular or large side, it shows up on combo meals and sits in Popeyes' side lineup alongside items like Cajun Fries and biscuits. Compared with thinner fast food mac and cheese, the sauce clings tightly to each noodle and holds its shape in the container instead of pooling at the bottom.
