Boxed Mac N Cheese only, trust me. Not a lot, just enough to give it some zing.

That's what hot sauce is for. I usually put in a little roasted garlic powder and a few splashes of Frank's into my Mac N Cheese.

Oh, Frank's might be really good. I will try that!

Frank's Buffalo sauce is amazing, I put that on all kinds of things, I like it better than just regular franks.

Haven't had mac & cheese in a long time, but whenever I get the urge, I like to mix a can or two of tuna into the finished product. It's the perfect cheesy tuna melt.

Always a box of Mac and Cheese lurking in our house. If we want to have a really bad (but good) cheat day dinner. Instant gratification. Instant regret.

I have never liked mac and cheese and never in my life have I made a box for the sole purpose of me eating it.


Can't eat more than like 5 noodles when I make it for the kids.

Homemade Mac N Cheese is the best, but a little too intensive to make all the time. I am with BF though, I rarely get more than a few spoon fulls when we make it for the kids.

Ketchup does NOT go on eggs you damn heathens! Most over-used condiment. It belongs on a few things and a few things only...
A burger
A brat/hot dog
french fries

Even these are not all necessary if you have other alternative. I use it for other cooking, but people who put it on everything are a danger to society and should be eliminated.
haaaaaaaa, it's a acquired taste :rotf: first time I saw a person slop Ketchup on eggs was at my uncles hunting camp, I think I was maybe 8 years old, I admired my uncle so much that what was good for him, well you know the rest, just a tad, cept with over easy eggs, Ketchup and egg yoke yellow turns pink, yuk, the tabasco is optional :lol:

I love me some box original Kraft Mac n Cheese....properly accessorized, of course.

I slice up two of the Johnsonville smoked cheddar wurst, two extra slices of Kraft American Singles, a healthy teaspoon of diced jalapeños, a few twists of fresh ground pepper, and a little extra milk while mixing for extra creaminess. Yum!

And you guys put ketchup on brats? Yuck. Butter (German wife thinks adding butter to an already greasy-as-hell brat is disgusting btw), spicy brown mustard, onions, and pickles for me. And there better be two brats on that bun, none of that splitting a single brat crap. Mouth is watering just thinking about one.

We never had it in the house growing up. I had to go away to college to discover its simple sinful goodness.

Only good thing that belongs on a steak is...nothing. Absolutley nothing. If you thing it needs something, you aren't cooking the steak right.

I eat Kraft original Mac and cheese probably 5 times a week. Kills me when I’m deployed or TDY that I can’t make any myself.

Boil water, cook it for 5 minutes, no shorter, no longer. 1/4 cup of 2% milk, 1/4 cup of country crock original butter, and add some salt. That’s a top 5 meal right there. If I didn’t get a pizza for the game this is tally what I’m making at halftime.

Agreed... but if I’m going fancy, I will melt some crumbled blu cheese on top for the last two minutes.

Some mushrooms and onions are always good as well.

Get some garlic in there, too, and you have a deal.

Some of you have clearly never had a good Marsala sauce atop a quality steak.

I also do the onion, mushroom, and garlic topping from time to time.

Then there is eating it with a bit of horseradish sauce if I'm in the mood.

And yes, there are times when just a plain ol' good steak hits the spot.

I miss mac n' cheese. Haven't eaten wheat since 2012 except on rare occasions (once every couple months at most). Recently (past two weeks) my wife and I are low carb, not quite Keto. I've already lost some weight (not sure how much, but jeans fit looser). Main reason was my wife's thyroid is acting up again and a physician we actually trust suggested low carb could help regulate it better. But I miss this and donuts. And maybe Red Lobster biscuits.
