An ode to Kraft dinner
quote:
An Ode to Kraft Dinner, Food of Troubled Times
While the world has continued to change, Kraft’s product has remained the same, somehow evading inflation at one or two dollars per box.

Didn’t read much of the article but even if the list of ingredients hasn’t changed over the years, what about the sourcing and changing quality standards for those ingredients?

This is a personal essay and the Kraft mac and cheese is just the vehicle the author used to tell the story of her life.

Nice article.

I always thought of Mac and Cheese as something kids ate (Jack loves it) or starving college students ate when they got low on funds. My friend tells me his family eats it for dinner with cut up breakfast sausage but I never at much of it as adult.

That changed when we moved here -it’s practically a food group! It’s tasty but I try to stay away from it for calorie density/salt reasons.
