I've got a personal vendetta against boxed Mac & Cheese 😂 It's so bad, and making the real thing isn't any more work. Real food FTW.
I too am a homemade mac and cheese maximalist. I believe that I make the best mac and cheese and would fight anyone over that title.
I think I've had Annie's once or twice. But it's still better than Kraft and Velveeta where it's 100% fake.
