Comment on Do I have incredibly weak thumbs, or does this instruction exist on boxes just to mess with us?

Used to love kraft dinner. Til the big change. The one where their advertising campaign was that no one even noticed… Can’t stand it any more. Probably for the best, we used to eat a certainly unhealthy amount before. Like 3-4 meals a week, whether lunch or part of supper.

It just tastes like burnt cheddar now. Looked all over for a replacement, saw so many people claiming other products or recipes that taste “just like” the old KD. There are none. Those people are wrong. Either they are unwittingly non-tasters and thus unable to factor that into their endorsements, or they are aware they are wrong but are hoping to sell a product anyway.

There is no substitute, it will never be what it was, we have to accept it will never be again. And hopefully with it out of our lives, it will eventually find it’s way out of our minds. Can only console myself knowing that it was basically a drug that I probably am better off without… but man was it ever a good drug. Just a box full of comfort, with no immediate downside. I would probably invite it right back if I ever did exist again…
