A Cleveland McDonald's is trying out macaroni and cheese for a limited time. (McDonald's)

The Golden Arches thinks you need a double dose of cheese during your next burger run.

A Cleveland McDonald’s is now testing a macaroni and cheese dish served a la cart or as a Happy Meal option to fries, Brand Eating reports. It's on sale for an extra $1.75 for a limited time with an end point that hasn’t been announced yet.

Eater spoke with a McDonald's employee who says that the product comes in frozen and has 190 calories, about the same as a four-piece McNugget.

McDonald's has been experimenting with many menu items in order to boost sales --and it's all-day breakfast promotion has given it a much-needed shot in the arm.

While the burger chain often gets criticized for marketing junk food to children, kids today can get apple slices, yogurt, milk, or juice with their meal--and in 2013 it was one of the first fast food chains to remove soda from Happy Meal menus

It feels like McDonalds tries to be all things to all people.

Maybe they've gotten too big.
Places like 5 Guys and In-N-Out beat them locally because they kinda stick to what they're good at -- making burgers.

They shouldn't sell it b/c they don't have anything on the menu to go with it.

Who would order a burger fri and mac& cheese?

What they need to do is make mcgriddles available all throughout the day. That's the only thing I eat from there. mc griddles, hash browns and mcflurries.

I don't eat anything else. My favorite fast food places are panera, portillos and popeyes (only if I have a coupon).

They already sell that at mcdonalds in other countries.

I swear the people in charge of mcdonalds are idiots. All they have to do is focus on making decent tasting cheap burgers and other trash foods. When i ate mcdonalds i didn't eat 5 double cheeseburgers because they were quality, I ate them because it was cheap. Mctacos and mcwaffles and all that other shyt needs to go. they want the whole pie instead of just controlling their already huge piece. They're trying to compete with everyone

Turning into this shyt:
