Mac and Cheese for Grown-ups?
I am very excited by this product announcement, and I think that Kraft foods should send me some samples to review for all you amazing readers. (But they haven’t. I may just have to go spend $2.89 for a box.)
Kraft has introduced Kraft Bistro Deluxe, a new line of “Mac and Cheese” in “sophisticated” flavorings for grown-ups. Instead of the powdered yellow “cheese” and semolina macaroni, we now have options that include Asiago cheese and marinara. Read on, my friends. Because, really, can it get more elementary than boxed pasta!?!?

the sophisticated adult palate.Introducing Kraft Bistro Deluxe, a new premium line of mac and cheese featuring fine ingredients such as sundried tomatoes, Portobello mushrooms and Asiago cheese, that helps adults bring the bistro experience home with the twist of unique flavors.
