It's Mac & Cheese Week at Food Republic so we figured, why not?For some, the idea of pairing beer and macaroni and cheese and calling it "gourmet" might seem absurd. Think about college, for instance: Easy Mac and a can of something “lite” is the fuel of late-teen academia. Those days, the fact that mac…

John DeLucie grew up eating the same mac 'n' cheese as the rest of us — you know, the stuff in the iconic "blue box," as he puts it. "My mom would go get 10 blue boxes and that would be the sort of emergency meal when all else fails," the Long Island native recalls,…

Sometimes we receive a book we all kind of fight to see who takes home. The Mac + Cheese Cookbook is one of those. If you've ever truly craved macaroni and cheese, chef/owners at Oakland, CA restaurant Homeroom have the cure: a dozen kinds with a jillion more add-ins, including the most important one of all: bacon.…

Last night I fell asleep to a South Park involving baiting a giant Canadian with a bowl of Kraft dinner, their affectionate term for that wonderful blue box of assorted stuff. Spongebobs, milk protein concentrate, salt. All kinds of stuff. Cheese. Anyway, Kraft macaroni and cheese is somewhat of a Canadian national dish, definitely more…

Who's ready for some good old-fashioned Friday "I'm totally checked out for the weekend" low-hanging fruit? I am! I love running Friday food porn galleries, they're really pleasant to put together, macaroni and cheese in particular if you have a certain Friday morning ailment, and nobody comments "eww" on our Facebook page. Ahem. Now while…

We proudly photographed the pile of goo, affectionately dubbed it "The Tuna Blob," ate every melty, delicious bite and touted it as Sandwich of the Week. Sadly, the…

Macaroni Salad Week is awesome, isn't it? I like that removing almost all of the mayonnaise allows you to incorporate cheese into the mix. Cheddar and poblano chiles is a potentially classic combination, as is goat cheese and asparagus. The Cobb salad, one of California's great contributions to the universe (besides after-work surfing excursions), features…
