15 Boise Area Restaurants With Irresistible Macaroni and Cheese

Drop the name "Cheesasaurus Rex" to any '90s kid and a flood of memories of classic, catchy commercials comes rushing back.

Cheesasaurus Rex was the lovable face of Kraft's famous blue boxed macaroni and cheese. Almost every kid remembers singing along to the commercials he starred in alongside the Animaniacs, Pokemon, Ninja Turtles, Looney Toons and more beloved children's characters.
