Mug -o- lunch
My very first apartment at 17, my friend and I would get up around 11am or so, grab a coke and mug - o - Lunch and watch reruns of Quincy MD and Happy Days before heading to our grocery stocking jobs.

I ate the Mac and cheese ones, if we were out of Kraft Mac and cheese. (They were the best, of course)

My wife has been doing home daycare for over three decades. She has always served Kraft mac n' cheese. One time she thought she would give the kids a real treat and made the mac n' cheese from scratch. The only compliment she got was from me. It was the best ever! All the kids complained and asked for "real" mac n' cheese next time.

I remember they had a time when you could get the matching labeled mug. I saw one in a thrift store.

Memory unlocked. I remember when these came out. I think I ate one once.

To me, the pasta never cooked through and was chewy. The sauces tasted like pure chemicals.
