Wikipedia
Macaroni and cheese (also referred to as macaroni cheese in the United Kingdom and mac 'n' cheese in parts of the United States and Canada) is a common casserole, similar to the British dish cauliflower cheese. Packaged versions are available, consisting of boxed pasta and a cheese powder, to which are added butter (or margarine) and milk (or water). The best known of these is Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, also known as Kraft Dinner in Canada. Extra ingredients, like ground beef, ketchup, jalapeños, sliced hot dogs, Spam, ham, bacon, tuna, tomatoes, broccoli, and other vegetables are sometimes incorporated into the dish. The product can be prepared in a microwave, baked in traditional oven, or cooked on a kitchen stove top. While marketed towards children, it also appeals to adults- especially post-secondary students (and other young adults recently living on their own) due to its low cost and ease of preparation.
