That Kraft stuff makes me gag. But good home-made macaroni & cheese
(why do people say "macaroni cheese," instead of "macaroni and cheese?"
It doesn't make sense) is hard to beat - good cheddar, shredded and
melted into a white sauce, with some paprika (or drops of Tabasco),
pepper, diced onion, mixed with cooked macaroni and topped off with
buttered fresh bread crumbs, and then baked in the oven until the
crumbs are light brown and the sauce is bubbly - heavenly.

One poster says "...with dinner." We always had it as the main dish,
not a side dish.

I've never seen it on a menu, even in a home-style diner, here in Iowa.
There may be places that have it, but I've never noticed it.

My granddaughter likes it with cut up hotdogs in it.
