Canned Macaroni and Cheese?

Barbarians!

It comes out of a damn box!

[–] [email protected] 20 points 2 days ago

In British supermarkets, they often don't even put the beans on shelves. Instead they have stacked palettes of them, because they need to restock so often it'd be inefficient to have to unpack and shelve them.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

Not even Branston beans. What a disgrace.

[–] [email protected] 54 points 3 days ago (7 children)

I have never seen mac and cheese in a can before and I am honestly mildly disgusted.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Avoid at all costs. Bought one can for the novelty of feeling the same way. It is so much worse than you're imagining.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I can imagine fake chese custard and slight amounts of overcooked rubbery pasta.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Have you ever smelled some foam and had that give you a headache? Do you know that chemically smell?

If so, it tastes whole mouth like that but very concentrated.

There are also chunks but at the same time there is not discernable difference in texture or consistency. Just vague border regions that register montarily as the broad side of your tongue cuts through them like a razor.

This review will be with me forever ♥️

LMAO

Chef Boyardee sells mac and cheese in a can in the US!

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 day ago

You ought to be. It's a struggle meal, not because of the price but because you struggle to keep it down. The noodles feel simultaneously overcooked, limp and somehow grainy. The sauce is virtually flavorless except for a musky odor of nuclear cheese. The consistency of the sauce is like that of milk, and it does not adhere to the noodles. Your bowl will be a nice mix of cold, pallid noodle soup and boiling hot noodle soup.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I dont understand... mac and cheese is litterally the easiest thing to cook. Who is this even marketed to?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

That narrow band of survivalists who are not unnaturally interested in fire

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 days ago (3 children)

They started making canned spaghetti carbonara now too

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago (4 children)

It's like they're trying to commit war crimes.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 days ago

Nah, just preparing for war times

I live in the USA and can confirm never seeing this before.

Though I'd try it tbh

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You can get it at WinCo if you're in the west.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

What? I have winco down the block.. I'll check for it next time I'm there.

Edit: confirmed not at our WinCo

[–] [email protected] 4 points 2 days ago

It's... Not good

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Canned anything with cheese tastes revolting from my experience.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago (3 children)

I mean Philly cheese steaks are made with canned cheese wiz, and then there's salsa queso dip they sell in cans, and everyone loves that shit.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago (1 children)

You can make that queso dip way better yourself in like 5 minutes, it's just a block of queso fresco (or white american), chop it up for faster melting, sodium citrate, milk, peppers, and seasoning. The sodium citrate is vital to keep it from getting grainy.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I mean you can make Mac and cheese way better than the stuff in a box, but people still love that shit.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 days ago

Ah, I was thinking of canned mac n cheese which I tried once and the several times I tried different canned soups containing cheese. It didn't taste like cheese and it wasn't tolerable for me. That said I have enjoyed canned queso dip.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Where are you getting Philly cheese steaks with canned cheese???

However chef boyardee and spaghetti-os have been a thing. My mom only got them once for us (in the 80s) and I wasn’t impressed. Liked kraft macaroni and cheese though.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

In Philadelphia. The big, famous cheese steak places use it, like Pat's and Geno's.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Philly steaks are traditionally made with cheez whizz in Philadelphia.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Philadelphia is one of the few cities I haven’t spent any time, and it’s super disappointing to find this out.

I get them with American or provolone cheese most places up in New England. Monterey Jack works well too.

I can’t imagine cheese wiz making these better in any way. Maybe I’ll find out someday.

Tikka masala is English food no matter how Indian it seems

[–] [email protected] 15 points 2 days ago (1 children)

It was invented in Scotland, so it's British but not English.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Still can't understand how some people think England is synonymous with the entire United Kingdom, when in reality it's only a fraction of it.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Probably because it's the centerpiece of the whole UK?

Probably because it's the country that created Britain and the UK to begin with?

It's really not that confusing if you put even a little thought into it.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 1 day ago

I suck at putting thoughts into things.

The downvote button is right there, waiting to be pressed.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Has it always been Beanz with a Z?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

Where is the HP sauce?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 day ago

I haven't seen that many beans in one place outside of a farm.

[–] [email protected] 34 points 3 days ago (1 children)

As a brit id say blimey they got it spot on

[–] [email protected] 3 points 2 days ago

Victoria would be proud to know her empire still provides for the people even now

[–] [email protected] 18 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Marmite, Lea and Perrin's, Curry.

Yup, this is actually the UK section and not just the beans section

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 day ago

I was shocked to find out that Lea and Perrins wasn't from Louisiana. They use that stuff in everything in Cajun land

[–] [email protected] 10 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago) (4 children)

Royaume-Uni/USA

Angleterre/États-Unis

With the signs in two languages and the one trying to be in english (lulz) being smaller, where in Quebec is that?

Edit: Turns out it's in France, I don't think they would be importing French milk all the way to Quebec

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago

Another clue it isn't Quebec is that Quebec wouldn't bother having a separate US section when the States are just a couple hours drive away.

Beautiful. This should be the national flag.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I'm British and I only eat beans and curry, so I can't see any problem here.
