As a kid, Mom would make homemade Mac-n-cheese with slices of hot dog! ...let him who has no sword sell his robe and buy one. Luke 22:35-36 NAV "Behold, I send you out as sheep in the midst of wolves; so be shrewd as serpents and innocent as doves." Matthew 10:16 NASV | |||

I sometimes feel guilty about it, but Kraft boxed Mac and Cheese, the cheap 89 cents a box version, complete with fake powdered cheese, is far and away my favorite... High-end mac-and-cheese, with 4 different cheeses hand grated by my wife, with all the love and cream she can put it it just doesn't compare to the mass produce crap from Kraft... | |||

Ain't no shame in that. Mac shouldn't be fancy. Truffle oil? Lobster? Etc. Fuck that. Simple ingredients, and a rue. Frankly, Kraft Mac is now all natural, and adding just one vegetable can go a long way. Arc. ______________________________ "Like a bitter weed, I'm a bad seed"- Johnny Cash "I'm a loner, Dottie.

Add some bacon and jalapeños. Yum. ________________________________________ -- Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear.

Jalapenos are technically a vegetable, right? | |||

My kids love the Kraft variety like most kids seem to. Must say I'm not much of a fan but it's surprising how some sriracha sauce can make basic M&C taste fairly good. I grew up with homemade pastas and casseroles so we didn't get the Kraft much. My grandma would make a chicken and velveeta casserole I'd climb a mountain for. Been a while since I've had velveeta nowadays...probably good for me. :P | |||

Of course! So is bacon, BTW. | |||

Stouffer's Mac and Cheese has no rival. It's the best tasting stuff out there. A couple three minutes in the nuker, and enjoy its creamy goodness. It'll kill you, but it is oh so good. ________________________________________________________ "Great danger lies in the notion that we can reason with evil." Doug Patton. | |||

I remember buying Kraft for a quarter a box. Helped get me thru my bachelor times after college. Made from scratch now; white sauce and all. _________________________________________________________________________ “A man’s treatment of a dog is no indication of the man’s nature, but his treatment of a cat is.

I’m going to try it – thanks for the tip. That would be this “Blue Box Original Cheese”? http://www.kraftmacandcheese.c...ebox/original-cheese Serious about crackers | |||

My youngest lives in Japan and gets cravings for Kraft M&C, so several times a year I send her a care package of boxes of it. "Isn't it weird that in AMERICA, our flag & our culture offend so many people - but our benefits do not" | |||

Yes, the blue box was a staple of college life as was Hamburger Helper. I swore both of them off after graduating. Much prefer to make my own mac and cheese from scratch. Family prefers it also. | |||

They even have vitamin C! My wife makes a killer homemade mac and cheese. I'm about to go wipe out the last of the leftovers from a batch she made last week. Large shells, some chicken, and a mix of Tillamook white cheddar and the end of some gruyere some guests brought recently. I was so happy to see it still in the fridge after reading this thread, lol. ______________________________________________ “There are plenty of good reasons for fighting, but no good reason ever to hate without reservation, to imagine that God Almighty Himself hates with you, too.” | |||

I did, and I enjoyed it. Thanks for posting it.  I much prefer the Swiss take on it rather than the purported Byzantine version with cinnamon and rosewater and sugar. That sounds remarkably unpleasant. ______________________________________________ “There are plenty of good reasons for fighting, but no good reason ever to hate without reservation, to imagine that God Almighty Himself hates with you, too.” | |||

Man. It's so easy to make it from scratch. I make the box stuff in a pinch. But as long as you have some chz in the fridge. Make it from scratch! Roux, milk, cheese and noodles. BOOM!
