Kraft Dinner

And how did it taste? :wacko:

It kinda tasted like cardboard... I didn't get sick or anything though.

For some reason the original tastes like crap now.

Yes I have eaten it for years, and it never tasted different.

I just gave up on the original brand.

Now moved to the White Cheddar and 3 Cheese Shells.

glad it was not just me

[Yggdrasilly]

1lb pasta, 1 block ny cheddar,1 can of the cheddar cambles stuff , and 2 cans of milk (using the can left over from the cheddar cheese)

What? Could you... clarify that a little? I've never heard of that.

Sorry i said it wrong .Its cables cheddar condensed soup, you use it with the 2 cans (empty cambles can) of milk and melt the cheddar to make the cheese sauce for the 1lb box of macaroni. makes a lot.

I always thought that stuff was disgusting, Canadians are the only ones I know that eat that Kraft Dinner krap.

[Trajik 2600]

disagree.

Use a lot of butter, yum!

YES.

And to the point of the rest of the thread, it's called your tastes maturing. After eating normal adult food, the easy crap in the pantry just doesn't cut it anymore. I used to think there was nothing wrong with Campbell's Thick and Chunky soups, and after having real food, they taste like kaka now too.

Sure does make it hard to be lazy.

There are some interesting recipes in this thread which I will have to try the next time I make Kraft Dinner. What I usually do when I make Kraft Dinner is this:

1. Open two boxes of Kraft Dinner.
   
2. Bring a pot of water to a boil on the stove, add a pinch of salt.
   
3. Empty the noodles from one box of Kraft Dinner into the pot.
   
4. Stir and cook on medium heat for around 8 to 12 minutes.
   
5. Empty the contents of the pot into a strainer and "shake" around to remove the excess water.
   
6. Empty the contents of the strainer into the pot.
   
7. Add one and a half tablespoons of butter or margarine to the noodles and stir until noodles are coated.
   
8. Pour 1/4 cup of milk into the pot and stir until mixed.
   
9. Open one package of cheese sauce mix and pour 1/2 of it into the pot, stir until coated, pour the other 1/2 into the pot and stir again until coated.
   
10. Open the other package of cheese sauce from the second box of Kraft Dinner, empty the mix into the pot and stir until you've achived consistency (if it is too thick, add a small amount of milk and stir until you've reached the desired level of thickness).
    
11. Empty the uncooked noodles from the second box of Kraft Dinner into a container for future use, or discard if you wish.
    
12. Add a pinch of pepper to the pot, stir, and serve!

is it just me or does Kraft dinner taste like crap now?

only now? It was edible in the past?

They changed the recipe, the cheese is no longer the same.

The new Kraft Dinner sucks, I tried to find some information on Google but this seemed to be the only relevant result.

God I hope they change it back, everyone I know says the new recipe sucks.

I wonder what Terrance and Phillip would say.....

[gnuman]

I eat my Kraft Dinner with ketchup and a bit of garlic powder and some black pepper... I feel the garlic brings out a more "cheesy" flavour... If it is made plain then it takes good cold.

Wow man, you are all talking about this stuff and tweaking it like it's actually real food. The cost and time involved, I guarantee you I could cook REAL food that tastes better and is better for you.

[Pink Floyd Veteran]

hehe I have no idea, the last time I ate a kraft dinner is 17 years ago!

I bet the taste has changed

haha no mac n cheese is good for you! cheese, butter, more cheese! it's deliciously awful for you!

here's my homemade mac n cheese recipe:

cook 1lb macaroni

Add:

1/2 block of Velveeta, cubed

1 (8oz) block of cheddar, cubed

4T butter

1 small (8oz?) can of evaporated milk

diced or minced jalapenos

salt/pepper to taste

Bake for 15-20 mins until it's bubbly.

that'll clog your intestines for sure! it's an amazing recipe. very rich, so you cant eat too much at once.
