As an european mac and cheese is already an abomination that you dont even know if people actually eat it in america or the media is playing a trick on the whole of europe.

What exactly is the abomination here? Pasta with cheese is also eaten a lot in Europe. Just look at Spaghetti cacio e pepe or Käsespätzle?

Roux sauce ham and cheese pasta had been around for a long time, brother.

Who the fuck downvotes random ass comments? I have to get to the bottom of this.

The bottom of the serving tray, perhaps?

Grapes and cheese is a classic combo. It could work, if you can balance acidity with the sweetness, and the saltyness of the sauce to the sweetness of the rasins.

Cheesy pasta? I guess everyone's got their own cheese preferences

I'm Canadian, we eat it (well I personally eat a vegan version). We call it Kraft Dinner.

That's the cheapest and worst version of the dish. Splurge a little. Get Velveeta shells and cheese.

Or make a cheese sauce, cook some decent macaroni, and stick it in the oven with some bread crumbs on top. Much better that way

Just open a box of Kraft Dinner and add some Sunkist.

Personally, I think the Velveeta shells and cheese is far inferior to Kraft.

I don't think Kraft is necessarily the best Mac and cheese either but for me it beats the hell out of Velveeta.

I moved from europe to canada, and they actually eat that thing. I tried in europe before, and the authentic here it's just as bad
