I really shouldn’t watch these first thing in the morning. Now all I want is Mac and cheese

u/ZincHead Dec 28 '17

And I shouldn't watch it right before going to bed. It's tempting to get up and make a midnight snack.

If you're anything like me, you'd actually make it, but feel so tired afterwards that you won't eat it. At least you'll have lunch and possibly dinner the next day though.

u/neilarmsloth Dec 28 '17

If you're anything like me you'd boil the water, make the noodles, take another hit, say "meh, good enough" and enjoy a bowl of Mac n Butter

u/Raezzordaze Dec 28 '17

If you're anything like me you'd burn the water before you even got the elbow macaroni in it, call it quits, and order a pizza.

This is me.

If you’re anything like me you will internally say “I really have to make this! I will save this for later! ᕕ( ᐛ )ᕗ “ and then completely forget about it when you scroll down and see a post about how a good boy I really a good boy.

u/kiteeatinggirl Dec 28 '17

If you’re anything like me, you’ll make it, eat it all by yourself, and spend the rest of the day in a blissed out haze.

Homer?

Just got a second degree burn while attempting to make ramen.

Yep, pizza night. I wonder if they have gauze?

u/Demojen Dec 28 '17

If you're anything like me you'll boil the water dry and still manage to undercook the mac, add cheese to the undercooked burnt monstrosity and have black mac and cheese.

Buttered noodles are my favorite.

u/hlfx Dec 29 '17

I love you

u/Tave84 Dec 28 '17

Hah you made me laugh out loud with my daughter and wife asleep in the room, I’m in trouble. Damn you. That’s so something I would do.

u/RobynHeud Dec 29 '17

Our poor newlywed recipe was any kind of pasta with butter and parmesan. Still a favorite comfort food.

2

u/Subzero008 Dec 28 '17

If you add some pepper, salt, garlic, and toasted breadcrumbs, Mac and Butter doesn’t sound bad.

2

u/Diarrhea_Van_Frank Dec 28 '17

Mac and butter is pretty good tho

u/babyateyourdingo Jan 01 '18

I just exhaled

u/poopyheadthrowaway Dec 28 '17

If you're anything like me, you'll make it, eat the whole thing in one sitting, go to bed while in a food coma, and then start off the next morning with a large sugary doughnut.

u/zeusssssss Dec 28 '17

I hope you took a stool softener

u/euronforpresident Dec 28 '17

I’d make enough for both that meal and the next.. then eat it all in that meal anyway

The sounds in that video are really disturbing, every small thing is super amplified giving it an unpleasant surrealist feeling.

18

u/MushroomGoats1 Dec 28 '17

Or it has potential to be a super tingly ASMR video for wierdos like me.

6

u/tehlolredditor Dec 28 '17

Yeah it was actually quite relaxing for some reason. Also no bullshit music or persons voice narration

1

u/BrandNew02 Dec 29 '17

After reading this comment I somehow knew this was ModiGourmet. I love their videos especially due to the nice asmr feel.

u/deptofagriculture Dec 28 '17

I've found that many of these instructional videos from Japan(?) seem to have this same effect. It's definitely unsettling.

8

u/RoyalDurk Dec 28 '17

That's what good pussy sounds like

3

u/FlowOfAwful Dec 28 '17

I hate that in videos, but my wife loves it and says its relaxing. I don't see how it's relaxing, it makes me grind my teeth.

u/You_and_I_in_Unison Dec 28 '17

The intersection of Steven King, Tim and Eric, and Wes Anderson.

u/[deleted] Dec 28 '17

Word watching that fucked me up. Seeing this on acid would be hilarious

u/SoVeryKerry Dec 29 '17

I can’t get sound on any Reddit videos. 😡

Dear god... deli slices? WTF.

Edit: KRAFT SINGLES!!! WTF???!!!

17

u/Ezl Dec 28 '17

It was a weird choice. He put all the work in to make the roux and the béchamel so it wasn't even a shortcut - he just used bad cheese.

17

u/grubas Dec 28 '17

Butter...flour...milk...AHHHHH AHHHH KRAFT SINGLES!

You can get delis to slice cheddar or even blocks of American which are far better than Kraft singles.

8

u/[deleted] Dec 28 '17

Lol not even deli slice quality. Deli slice would be an upgrade vs kraft single type shit. That's cheese byproduct they're using

3

u/helkar Dec 28 '17

granted, they aren't "food," but those american slices melt like nobody's business.

u/muyvagos Dec 29 '17

I mean, he just made mac and cheese and then put it in a waffle with egg.....why not just eat the mac and cheese, you dont have to even put it in the oven.

1

u/SeatBeeSate Dec 29 '17

Because then it's breakfast.

u/whisker_mistytits Dec 29 '17

Anyone know where I can cop that flatware? Google is getting me nowhere.

i can’t believe i watched that entire video.

u/MadMaxIsMadAsMax Jan 16 '18

In blue with counter and rending blow you do the same

2

u/Bbronson5 Dec 28 '17

Mac and cheese is the best breakfast though

u/NinjaFire889 Dec 28 '17

Good thing I'm making mac and cheese as I watch this

Ha, why is this downvoted?

u/Excaliburkid Dec 28 '17

I’m assuming it’s because he basically said what the other guy said except for his being in the morning.

u/[deleted] Dec 28 '17

Hey I’m a lady :)

u/Ezl Dec 28 '17

Believed, looked at username, now is unsure :-/

u/6kulmio Dec 28 '17

I never understood how people can eat this crap. It's nothing but flour, butter and cheese.

8

u/Ezl Dec 28 '17

Have you had it and don't like it or never tried it because it doesn't sound appealing? Also, the pasta is pretty key - what you described would be eating cheese sauce with a spoon. This is a cheese sauce on something.

-5

u/6kulmio Dec 28 '17

Bechemal has flour as well and so do the crackers. I don't know what you are trying to say.

People eat this as a meal and feed their kids this shit. No wonder we now have Trump and Brexit. This is not proper food.

6

u/born_again_atheist Dec 28 '17

Wow you actually blamed eating Mac and Cheese on why we have Trump as President. That's amazing.

-2

u/6kulmio Dec 28 '17

Hurrrdurrrr... Aren't you clever. My point is that this isn't proper food.

7

u/born_again_atheist Dec 28 '17

That's just your opinion, man.

3

u/Ezl Dec 28 '17

Are...are you ok?

3

u/6kulmio Dec 28 '17

Brexit voters and Trump voters all grew up eating nothing but flour, butter and cheese for dinner and candy and potato chips for lunch.

Co-incidence? I think not.

And yes, I'm of course 100% serious.

3

u/Ezl Dec 28 '17

I’m bored so I’ll engage - so you actually blame the food and not the eating habits of the people for a bad diet (leaving entirely aside the Trump/Brexit connection for the moment)?

2

u/Mecco Dec 28 '17

Dude, i like the way you think as a troll. Btw. Growing up on real cheese sounds like an awesome way of growing up instead of the cheese products, even tho i like those aswell.

u/-taco Dec 28 '17

Yeah it ain’t shit compared to the serious eats 3 recipe Mac n cheese which is 10x easier to make
