No matter how one loves, there are always different aims. Love can take a great many forms, whatever the era.

This is actually making me kinda sad for real as i realize I've had this one treat that's been consistently tasty since i was a teenager and now I'm middle aged and it'll probably never come back. Not the biggest deal in life ofc but it's a small crack ping among all the others

I had this moment when the recipe for Neilson Golden Buds changed. Can't find them anymore now.

There are a bunch of food products that taste worse than I remember and I'm not sure if it's nostalgia or they really did make the recipe cheaper. (it probably is the latter)

They should be forced to put a label on the package if it changes. "New, shittier formula. Same great price!"

They're esentially making a sort of fettuccini alfredo but with cheddar cheese and macaroni. I don't know how well it will work, though.

You need a lot of starch in the water to make the cheese sauce work and I don't know if just reducing the amount of water would be enough to get the content up enough for the sauce to form.

Edit: And if you use bagged shredded cheese with lots of additives to stop it form sticking, it will also probably never work right.

This is violence, but also I worked in a dairy, and after that did food safety inspections for Sobeys, nothing can shock me related to food. I've seen a Sobeys that had so many mice a weasel moved in.

Edit: I will say, after the dairy I didn't drink milk for like 5 years. It definitely affected me.

Glad to hear that it rules discovering it as an adult. That place was basically Mecca for children, so you usually experience it first as a child. Going to bulk barn as a child always ended in consuming an irresponsible amount of candy. I can't not think of it fondly.
