According to the Chicago Tribune, a significant aspect of the appeal of mac and cheese is the fact that it's so inexpensive to make and that the demand for cheap food "has been a longstanding quest of the American food system." With so many prepared mac and cheese brands on the market today, it's not just an inexpensive food - it's also a convenient and surprisingly tasty one. And now, it shows up at your favorite bars and restaurants - even though these days, when you order it with a craft beer, it may be made with gruyére and white cheddar instead of Velveeta or whatever that orange powder was.īut regardless of how elevated your mac and cheese gets, at its heart, it's essentially an unpretentious food. You microwaved a flimsy plastic container of it in your dorm room when you thought you would die if you ate another packet of ramen. Your mom made it for you when you were too picky to eat anything else as a kid.
If there's any comfort food that's universally loved in American cuisine, it has to be mac and cheese.
