I'm 32 years old and still don't think there is a food in this world superior to Kraft Macaroni and Cheese.

I mix it up with Cracker Barrel, Annie's, etc, all the time and will typically cook that as a side. If I'm home alone though I'll still fuck up a bowl of Kraft.
No.
Nostalgias a hell of a drug
there's more to food than simply inherent taste when you allow for the many other aspects that makes food taste good to us

You've really got to explain yourself, OP. Like I don't care if you feel this to be true, but at least list what other Mac and cheese you've had so we can gauge how sad to be for you. Like have you ever had grocery store cafeteria Mac? Fast food Mac? Home cooked Mac, baked in the oven? Applebee's or something like one of those places' 3 cheese Mac?

I'd call it Kraft Dinner but then people would just call me a phony. I like the name Kraft Dinner more too but if I said that to another American they'd look at me like a freak.
It's disgusting. I've always hated it. My aunt forced me to eat it when I was about 7, convinced that I was lying about not liking it. I forced it all down and puked it all back up. My parents were a bit mad at her forcing it on me.
Because of hating Kraft, I thought all mac & cheese was bad until I had some I was too hungry to refuse (in basic training). Turns out, it's just that Kraft shit that's shit.

It's time to become a trendsetter, OP. Spread the good word to the American hordes.
Yeah, I don't really like it either. I hate most fake cheese in general, though.
I feel like this is going to be one of those threads where the OP makes an innocuous, semi-joking statement and gets dogpiled.
nah if they were canadian they would know president's choice white cheddar mac n cheese is the best
I mean Kraft Mac and Cheese is better than the "real" Mac and Cheese, I'll agree with you there. It's basically an entirely different food, though. Though when I make it I use Half & Half as the liquid instead of milk, and I do more than most people. "Real" Mac & Cheese is too gooey and doesn't taste as good. Give me that smooth half-soup consistency.
That said, best FOOD? That's... a bit much.

Okay I can't argue that and I respect the stance
It's Kraft Dinner henceforth
OP I think it's dope your favorite food is easily accessible and easy to prepare. I wish my culinary happiness was as easy.
Get yourself some good Cajun shrimp n' grits and then come back and apologize for insulting the actual best food, OP.
Or some legit curry, even.

A box of Kraft Mac is delicious, it's true.
My cousin attended university with a guy who did this (+chocolate chip cookies). He was subsequently diagnosed with scurvy. For real.
It's great, way better than "real" mac and cheese from a restaurant. The only other macaroni and cheese I like is Boston Market's.
This one is also great. I use to get that and those caramelized apples on the side (which apparently got discontinued a few years back...)
it's very good mmm
Yeah, def way better than "real" mac and cheese. But I won't complain about getting the real thing, it's all good
Kraft is good. I still like it, and I'm 32. But homemade is better.
I'm a lazy bastard though, so that rarely happens

I love Annie's White Cheddar and Shells. It's definitely in the rotation. I love just about every macaroni mentioned here, macaroni and cheese is great in general. I never stop yearning for Kraft though. I can get sick of it like anything else, but I can go back to / desire Kraft quicker than any else.
Although, I'm just going to say it, I think baked macaroni and cheese is kinda overrated.
The best Mac & Cheeses all have a creamy sauce, I'm not really all about the super hearty, stringy, greasy, baked mac and cheese. I mean, it's good shit, but my favorite ""fancy"" mac and cheese is a locale BBQ places, looks like this:
