Cooked Velveeta can last in the fridge for about 3 to 5 days when stored properly in an airtight container. Be sure to check for any signs of spoilage, such as off smells or changes in texture, before consuming. If you're unsure, it's best to err on the side of caution and discard it.
Why does your velveeta cheese appear to have crystals on it?
The crystals you see on Velveeta cheese are likely due to the formation of calcium lactate, which can occur when the cheese is stored for a long time or exposed to changes in temperature. These crystals are harmless and a natural byproduct of the cheese aging process. They may also result from moisture loss, which can concentrate certain compounds. While they might affect the texture, they do not indicate spoilage.

Does anyone have a recipe for mac and cheese made with velveeta cheese?
Macaroni and cheese is a matter of personal taste--you may like it cheesier than someone else, with topping or without, etc. I use about a pound (half of the most common sized box) for a large, deep-dish casserole, and it's pretty cheesy. I cut it into small cubes and stir it into the macaroni (already boiled) with some milk (a cup or so). After baking it (at 350F) for 20 minutes to allow the cheese to melt, stir it to coat all the macaroni. Continue to bake until the cheese starts to brown, then take it out and serve.
