how big is a 5lb tray?

My sister is hosting Christmas Day and was wondering if I could pick up a tray of mac and cheese from Boston Market for the kids. I called and they said it's a 5lb tray. I asked how many people that feeds and the guy didn't know ugh... Does anyone know how big that is?

Well I made 5lbs of mac and cheese last night and it was a full tray and it was about 75 people and there were leftovers.

It's only $31 though, so I can't imagine it would feed that many! If so, that would be a fantastic deal lol

That's interesting. I looked up their catering a la cart menu and it has Mac n cheese as small or large and large says it serves 8-10. I didn't see the weight.

Think about a standard box of pasta is a lb. so 5 lbs of pasta is a lot. and it is just a side so not everyone would eat it.
