The goal of this site is to find as many kinds of mac n' cheese as possible and try them so you don't have to! Stove-top, frozen, quick prepare (just add water), home made and anything served in a restaurant are all fair game! If it's name has macaroni n' cheese in it, I'm trying it.

My hope is that this blog will help you discover new varieties to try (and to avoid) or that killer home made recipe that is worth the work to make yourself.

When I'm not collecting video games, I'm eatin' mac n' cheese. Thanks for following me on this journey as I see what it takes to make me bleed cheese.

Sporting A Bowtie

It took almost two months, but I finally started to run out of prepared mac n' cheese options at my standard grocery stores.  Lucky's, Safeway and Target (all of our local Target's now have reasonably large grocery store sections in them) are no longer giving me fresh lunch fodder for the blog.  I've begun to cast my net wider, in hopes of finding new macs before i'm stuck on a strictly stovetop and recipe routine.  Fortunately I live in the Bay Area and we've got a number of regional chains and a huge population that enjoy high quality foods that not only keep these smaller chains alive, but allow high end grocery stores like Whole Foods thrive. 

While Whole Foods is expensive, many of the items they carry justify the higher prices.  Hopefully some of these more expensive macs are worth it.  With a focus on organic and healthier items many of the brands seen at Whole Foods are ones you're not going to find at your local grocery stores and because of that, I'm heading down a path fraught with danger for someone who isn't normally very adventurous when it comes to food.

My lunch today was made by a company named Blake's.  Blake sounds nice enough, let's hope his mac n' cheese is too.
