    Fried mac and cheese sounds awesome. Shame it sucked hard.
    I'm doing well right Greg, I'm getting through your posts at a good pace? I think you're awesome man.

    Man, you are trucking through these!

    my fave is trader joes mac and cheese, which never fails to assault my senses
  • Very true!

    Just some elbow noodles, Velveeta, salt/pepper, and maybe a little milk. Or Stouffer's from the freezer.

    blue box, hands down. when are you gonna get t-shirts to give away that cute girls like me can wear out, instead of xxl mens sizes?

    or do we assume that freezerburns fans are all huge dudes?

    I think my mac and cheese is the best but when I am too lazy to make it I buy stouffers.

    Oh! Forgot to answer the question... I haven't really had mac and cheese recently, and haven't actually tried very many different kinds... thus far none of them have been outstanding, although I have yet to try making it myself... which is probably the way to go... and up until last year, I was a vegan, so it had been years since I had tasted any mac and cheese at all; maybe I just don't like it anymore...

    When I was a child, I used to *love* the Kraft stuff in the blue box (::hangs head in shame::)... that was the gold standard for me back then, and no other mac and cheese even came close (although I don't think I ever had a good homemade version)... the absolute WORST was any mac and cheese made with Velveeta; I never could stand the stuff.

    Somehow I had a feeling that this one was going to be awful... not only did it look scary, but I've found that celebrity-branded products are rarely ever any good... with one exception: everything that I've ever tasted from the Newman's Own brand has been awesome. Come to think of it, Newman's Own just came out with a line of frozen pizzas (which I have not tried); it would be fun to see a review of one of these pizzas sometime.

    At any rate... when you first started doing your "Fryer Burns" episodes, I wondered if you were going to be deep-frying some mac and cheese in the near future... as scary as that might be, I'm sure that it would have to be better than these "Mouth Poppers". I will definitely be staying away from this product... and you're right; there's no excuse for the trans fats. I believe that 2 grams a day is actually considered the maximum "safe" amount for trans fat consumption... so this product would actually be the maximum (100%) daily value, in that sense... but even though up to 2 grams is considered "safe", as we all know, you really *shouldn't* have ANY... the less, the better; *zero* is the best when it comes to trans fats. I'm sure they could have easily made this product without trans fats, and yet for some reason they chose not to.

    Does anyone else have certain textures that just make you shudder? I don't even have to touch them, looking at them is enough.
    When that macaroni thing broke apart, that was seriously heebi-jeebifying.

    I don't know if this counts, but it has macaroni and cheese in it....
    When I was a kid, my big sister used to make me tuna noodle casserole with macaroni, parmesan, peas, tuna, some other stuff...I don't know, I was five. It was delicious.
    Anyway, I used to force her to make it for me all the time. Good times.

    Y'know, I don't think I've ever even had Kraft Mac.
