Mac and Cheese


How can you not love this American icon? My mom made this casserole long before they discovered how bad cheese and sodium were. And so I sort of bonded to it. And now, voila! Burger King has introduced this queen of American culinary excellence to the center stage of what they think is smart eating.

Well, I have news. We newbies saw this classic for what it was years ago. My generation pretty much grew up on this stuff. Along with peanut butter and fried egg sandwitches. And guess what? We survived!!

Yes, it's true. The king of American fast food has realized (in my view, far too late)how important mac and cheese is to our well . . . national carbohydrate identitidy.

So here's to macaroni. Health food for us all.
