I am, but you don't have it down in the states?
I'm Canadian too. Here's the absolutely batshit thing. They do have it down in the states but they don't call it Kraft Dinner. To them it's just "Kraft Mac & Cheese". Their boxes just say Macaroni and Cheese with a Kraft brand on top of it. They actually have to distinguish between boxed and baked mac and cheese...
This.
This right here, is what is wrong with America
As an American, I can say this is the least of our problems.
The mindset of “this kind of works for us, don’t change it, even if what you have is better” is at the root of most issues with America. Healthcare or Kraft Dinner, American Exceptionalism is damaging.
Excuse me but our health care doesn’t even kinda work for us. It’s a full on disaster. The duct tape (Obamacare) is helping but before that if you lost your job after you had cancer nobody would ever insure any cancer treatments for you again.
Here's a really crazy thing that we do: have Mac & cheese made by someone other than Kraft. It actually is exceptional.
I agree, baked Mac n Cheese reigns supreme
Baked? I guess you can do it that way, but generally not how it's done in the lower 48. Just boiled and cheesed.
It depends on how much your parents love you
Whatever man, my dad is just out getting cigarettes. He's coming back.
We sometimes got chopped hotdogs in ours. True love.
It's because, unlike y'all, we sometimes eat things other than mac & cheese for dinner.
Nobody calls it Kraft Mac and cheese. It’s just Mac and cheese. I love that you can’t fathom the lack of “Kraft” at the beginning though. Also many of us never buy that shitty ass boxed stuff. We just boil macaroni noodles and add cheese sauce. Wild, I know.
It’s just blue box to me.
If the argument is which country has a better name for it, we Americans are calling it what it is, Kraft's Mac & Cheese. It's also served as a side dish a lot of the times, so calling it a "Dinner" implies it's used as the main course.
It’s the early adopter problem. We invented both things so didn’t really have room to distinguish. So it’s lazy Mac and cheese vs bar Mac and cheese vs honey did you really need to buy three cheeses and make a full ass brick roux Mac and cheese
It’s called Mac&Cheese here in the states
The kids are making it for lunch because Mommy and friend are still passed out in bed at noon the next day.
The room is alive with the sound of Thawp Thawp Thawp
Sounds more like stirring macaroni.
Tell me your Canadian without telling me your Canadian
My Canadian?
Who is your Canadian and what does he do?
Don't own them! Slavery is illegal!
How aboot no.
Took me too long to get it and I'm a grown ass man
Because we’re high dude
