I took advantage of some good sales this week.  I also used my coupon to try the Kraft Homestyle mac and cheese.  I thought that it was terrible.  It has the ribbed pasta which is nice, but the process is every bit as time consuming as making from scratch but nowhere near as good.  After you boil and drain your pasta you use 2T of butter and their seasoning packet - which looked a lot like flour and salt to me - and make a rue.  You then add 1/2C of milk to make a white sauce.  Instead of adding real cheese when it thickens you squeeze orange goo out of the cheese packet and stir it in.  You mix with pasta, top with bread crumbs and bake until brown and bubbly.  Do not try this at  home.
