So true. And when we had company at our apartment dinners, we added a can of tuna and a cup of sour cream to the old blue box and, voila!, instant gourmet mac ‘n cheese.
I occasionally mix some canned chili into mine.
“And on tomorrow’s episode of White Trash Gourmet...” ;)
FYI..over here..
We only got that “gourmet” if we had dates for dinner. Fortunately, we’d have enough cheap wine or beer to distract them from what we’d prepared. As a starving student I lived on the stuff and cutting hot dogs up and adding them in was really styling. Kraft Mac and Cheese is landfill that won’t leave you hungry. Gotta love starch when the budget is tight.
