I wasn't interesting in cooking tonight. I had just gotten back from the laundromat and just wanted to not be hungry. Kraft Mac'n'Cheese it is.Now, its not easy to mess up Kraft Macaroni and Cheese. This uber-difficult recipe contains only four steps: boil the macaroni; add some butter, milk and cheese packet; stir together; eat.
Unfortunately it is possible to mess up it somewhere in there. Are you a six year old and do not know how to boil water? Are you incapable of tearing open a cheese packet? Is your name "Joe Cooks Dinner and Stuff?"
I cooked the macaroni, no problems there. I added some butter and the cheese packet. Things are going smoothly at this point. I then pour in some milk. Uh oh. The milk looked rather "chunky" while pouring. I check the label "Good Until October 27." That's what I thought.
Wait a second, what does it say direct under that? "NYC Good Until October 25."
What the fuck. Seriously. The milk decides it is going to spoil two days earlier just because of where I live?
I toss the milk and "mac'n'cheese" and instead go to the taco truck.

Taco truck is clearly the way to go on this one.
I also recommend some Annie's mac and cheese. It tastes decidedly less artificial. I've often thrown in some turkey sausage or black beans for added protein.
dude - you gotta get the organic milk. that shit lasts forever.
Meanwhile, I ate Easy Italia both for lunch and dinner and both times I prepared it to perfection.
Care to guess what's on the slate for tomorrow's meals?
if you go to the kraft website, they don't acknowledge that easy italia is one of their products.
black beans in mac and cheese? interesting.
Weird.
All I know is that I throw a real curve ball at the inventory manager for the Harris Teeter I go to. I get the same kind of granola bars, the same kind of protein bars, 4-6 containers of Easy Italia, and some kind of fruit.
Every week!
