I don’t know how it happened. I was grocery shopping online and before I knew it, I had added six cups of this stuff to my virtual shopping cart. I think it had something to do with calories. These single serve puppies of “cheesy made easy” mac & cheese have only 220 calories and 4.5 grams of fat. That’s not so bad for someone on a diet.

They also include one packet of radioactive orange powder. TRIPLE CHEESE POWDER.

Just add water and microwave, so that’s nice. Easy. America, this is why you’re fat. Even at 220 calories.

Note instructions are very easy to follow. (Fill to this line!)

Once finished in the microwave, add the magical triple cheese orange powder. Stir.

Mmmm. Glommy nuclear waste!

The Verdict: Never again, although exceptions will be made when alcohol is involved.

    I’m a huge fan of trader joe’s guilt free mac and cheese (frozen section). I mix it with veggies and tofu.

    Even if it’s a glommy nuclear waste, it still looks edible. LOL
