The Kraft Noodles Romanoff product was a convenience side dish that has been discontinued since the late 1970s. It featured "special golden curly" egg noodles in a creamy, lightly cheesy sauce made with sour cream, Parmesan cheese, butter, chives, and seasonings.
Product Description: The original product was a boxed, shelf-stable pantry item that required a two-step preparation process. The dish was designed to offer an "exotic-sounding" yet easy-to-make meal or side dish to a mass audience in the 1960s. It was often described as a rich, hearty, and creamy comfort food, sometimes compared to beef stroganoff without the beef.
Discontinuation: Kraft's version, along with similar boxed products from brands like Betty Crocker and Rice-a-Roni, were popular in the 1960s but were largely off the shelves by the late 1970s. A frozen version by Stouffer's also existed for a time but was discontinued in the early 2000s.
