    Yeah, that word on my face, weird, huh?

    And trying to wash those letters off my face, every morning, especially the Roaming A's? Pretty hard. And they just keep coming back.

    Lobster is nice ($$$)  but TUNA?  Canned tuna is cheap and tasty with mac and cheese.  I love any addition.  Including more cheese.  It's good when you add a complimentary cheese that melts easily like some soft cheddar.

    What can I add to my mac and cheese?
    Mac & Cheese Add-Ins
    • Hot dogs from Kraft. Save. ...
    • Tuna. Once your mac and cheese is combined, add a drained can of tuna (packed in water). ...
    • Peas. Pasta and peas go together perfectly. ...
    • Ham. Use of leftover ham by adding chunks to your macaroni and cheese! ...
    • Tomato. ...
    • Tomato Soup. ...
    • Spicy Jalapeno Mac from SheKnows. ...
    • Ground Beef.

  • Its beginning to look like just about anything can be added into the mix.
    I like the idea of hot dog and cheesy mac.

    If I had a restaurant, that would be on the menu.  Great to end a night of drinking and dancing for starters.  zzzzzzzzzzzzzz LOL  

    And then, I want to add chives on top.  Just a little.

    How can you justify eating tuna?  Tuna fish have faces just as land-based animals do, so you vegans and vegetarians who chastise others for eating anything with a face need to educate me on how this isn’t blatant and obvious hypocrisy. 

    :(

    I cannot justify it.  We had this conversation already.  I cannot.   Perhaps it is because I am a big Nirvana fan and Kurt said it was okay to eat them.

    They don't have any feelings. According to KC.  But I disagree. I can at least say they are not put in slaughterhouses and raised in torture.

    I added weenies once and the mac-cheese drew all of the salt out of them. It became inedible. Henceforth...no additives.

    Odd.  Odd that this happened only to you and no one else.  The mac and cheese does not DRAW salt out of hotdogs.  Where do you get this?  

    You cook the hotdogs separately.   Then add them at the end.  Sliced.

    1.  Hot dogs are already cooked when you buy them.
    2.  I slice them.
    3. I put them in at the end.
    4.  I am very sensitive to salt.

    Also, neither of us can prove whether the salt is drawn out or not. I just know what I tasted.

    I am not arguing the point.  I'm sure that junk has tons of salt.  Why you eat this at all is beyond me.

    I would not ruin good food by mixing it with anything as disgusting as mac and cheese.  I know other people eat it and love it, but I can't stand it.

    You’re right, Baby, it’s an outrage, and those who do it should be ashamed of themselves. Just whip me up a nice sammich instead, Dear.
    (Hey, I’ll agree with practically anything this woman says.)

    No.  Just no.  Too much starch.  That is like a butter sandwich using cheese slices with butter as inside of the sandwich.  TOO MUCH. This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at September 9, 2019 9:39 AM MDT

    NOPE. Not at all. I like REAL CREAM in my coffee.  But I don't want real cream and three tablespoons of real sugar too.  UGH.  TOO MUCH already.

    Not if there is a third party involved, if you get my drift.

    Maybe bacon on occasion. I do like tuna in my m&c. But normally just basic.

    Which says absolutely nothing. It also isn't what it isn't.

  • Hey!  You noticed that too, huh?  LOL! 

    Just think, these are the rather pedestrian declarations
    considered to be wise and pithy today.
