    OMG I l♥ve mac n cheese especially from the Kraft blue box - original. I was sad when I was screened out. I say how dare they?!

    Kraft changed their recipe sometime last year but good thing no one noticed it. They removed artificial preservatives, flavors and dyes from their box and replaced it with paprika, annatto and turmeric to keep it's rich yellow/orange flavor.

    Speaking of which, maybe I'll make that for dinner.

    Colors always have flavors. As well as emotions and moods. Some poor folk actually hear color. I'm exceptionally sensitive to color, but I ain't heard none. Responses to color is a long known psych study. Do enough surveys here and you'll run into it. You can trust me on this. Color management is my thing. I can ramble on indefinitely. (Oh look, I have!)

    Im the opposite >.> colors are just colors and flavors are just flavors and at no point do i associate them with an emotion or being able to hear color x.x

    Im that super rational type on psych tests so i suppose that would explain it.

    You probably are associating color with emotion and not realizing it. Advertisers are all concerned with this type of study. Choices in products can be as simple as what color the label is. And can be based on race, sex, location, ethic group, etc. Color is a moving thing behind many of our choices, whether we know it or not--the advertisers certainly do. Shall we discuss the color of the paint on walls? Or your car? Your raincoat? Haven't you ever wondered why your friend wears a color so unbecoming? What caused the choice? Color is soothing or energizing or just plain annoying. And many people disagree on the parameters of why that choice. ...and then we can go into the appalling fact that we often perceive color differently from one another. Color blindness to some degree is not rare....I'm rambling again. I'm going away now....

    Well, I did not make any money today, but I did get about 150lbs of potatoes out of the ground. And a sunburn. Go me.

    Glad he was able to enjoy it there!

    I had an online friend who was from Finland. Few of us were talking about the Kraft Mac n Cheese and how much we liked it. Surprisingly Finland sells imported Krafts from the US. He went ahead and bought a box and after so much anticipation from us, he said he hated it. Said it was awful. :eek:range: I guess you have to be from the US to enjoy it.

    He lived in Spain about 30 years ago. He just took his daughter to Spain and told me that they now sell it in Madrid. We had a good laugh about it. I really really love home made mac & cheese but there are times when the blue box tastes great!

    My laugh for the day!

    Yellow is smooth, orange tastes citrus-y, green tastes like pickles, red is always very sharp. I'm an expert too

    He might be a connoisseur of the original Italian mac n cheese, made in the oven. It uses a few different cheeses and has a crispy crust around the edges. Try not to become friends with good cooks ;-)
