Went to the store at lunchtime, despite the fact that Rob plans to go later tonight, because I had an insurmountable Mac-and-Cheese need.
Ok, first: What the hell, people? How much easier does Mac-and-Cheese need to be? The directions are as follows: Cook pasta, stir in milk, butter, dehydrated cheese powder. Who is it that can't handle this, and how come they are clearly such a large market segment?
Second: It's dehydrated cheese folks. Don't try to pretend it's gourmet by calling it "alfredo". I make a perfectly fine alfredo and if that is what I wanted I would make some. I want my plain-old nuclear orange fake cheese food.
Third: I know it's a food crime and I don't care. Who among you has no secret love for something you know is terribly wrong? MSG flavored Ramen? Cool Whip? Blue Raspberry slushies? Ryan Seacrest? Let ye who is without sin cast the first rice cake. |

I love mac and cheese. LOVE IT. Not Annies, not even Kraft. I want the less than a dollar a box store generic, thank you.
You said "Ryan Seacrest".
Well after all the carrying on over in my inbox, at least one of you has a secret fetish for the man... if only in a post-modern, ironic, hipster way.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH BLUE RASPBERRY SLUSH?!
You better not dis my slush, woman.
I've had to resort to Chef Boy-R-U-Lazy.
Hamburger Helper. In Cheddar Cheese Melt.
Yeah, I had those nasty dehydrated scalloped potatoes last night. Only I added Italian sausage, a block of cheese, and French's fried onions on top...
I do eat ramen, but I always gussy it up with stuff (Chinese sausage, kimchee, carrots, green onions, shiitake mushrooms) so that doesn't count.
My guilty pleasure: nacho cheese sauce. Gimmee the orange food!!!
I always hated Kraft mac'n'cheese - even as a kid. I remember some kid's mom served it to us at a play date and I was totally a SNOB that it wasn't made by scratch and baked with parmesan and paprika on top. | |
