Oh, does the Trader Joe's dips count? I love these:
Nah, those are a little fresher, refrigerated and with a short shelf life. I'm talking about pantry stuff here, b
Then I stick with my original answer. We have regular stuff. If it all disappeared tomorrow, I wouldn't much care.

My kids eat a lot of mac n cheese. Which means I end up eating a lot of it, too.

I recently saw an ad where Kraft mac n cheese is advertising itself as a breakfast food now.

I just now saw that ad on twitter. I mean, throw a fried egg on top of a bowl of mac n cheese and you've got yourself a breakfast.
