my friend, the blue box
Sometimes, between delicious meals made with fresh produce and gourmet ingredients, I need a taste of home. And that's when I dip into my prized stash of mac and cheese. I have all different kinds: Annie's Organic, Velveeta with the creamy toxic orange sauce, and good old Kraft, with the powdery toxic orange sauce.
The other night I prepared my last box of Kraft, knowing that my friend Zoe is visiting soon from New York, and will be bringing Annie's with her. And the texture of the noodles was so perfect, the ratio of milk to powder so delectable, that as soon as I took a bite I wondered why I ever waste any of my meals on anything but mac and cheese.
It was that good.
Do any other expats have similar food cravings/obsessions from home? How often do you indulge?
