This is supposed to be light in calories but I don't see how that is possible. By adding in a cup of cheese, which should have been low fat or fat free, you add in a ton of extra calories that the cheese sauce in the bag already has plenty of. I know it's called Double Cheese, but I don't think this belongs under the healthy category...

The cheese sauce definitely made this dish taste odd.
