      Look, some people just can’t digest it. As you get older, your ability to process mac’n’cheese without dire intestinal consequences drops off substantially. The pros just simply aren’t worth the cons, not by a long shot.

      Doesn’t stop me tho

        As you get older, you develop taste and stop eating garbage.

              Lactose intolerance is more common than lactose tolerance globally. In the unites states, something like 1 in 3 people are lactose intolerant.

              It’s largely genetic. Lactose tolerance can be traced to nomadic tribes that kept milk producing animals as a food source, adapting to tolerate lactose in their diet over time.

                  Of course it is with age. No mammals are born lactose intolerant. We drink milk as infants.

                  Almost universally, all adult mammals become lactose intolerant. We humans are lucky for those of us who tolerant.

                    Sure, but I figured that lactose intolerance would typically manifest before the age of, say, 20. I didn’t realize that people could become lactose intolerant as seniors.

      Not the Mac n cheese for the last like 20+ years. It used to use real cheese and really did taste better. I know the internet got all uppity against kraft a while back, claiming they started making the noodle portion worse somewhere around 2016 or something, but that’s nothing compared to the big taste difference that happened when they stopped using real cheese.

        Sorry what? You know you can make Mac and cheese from scratch right? It’s not too difficult.

          Are you telling me that simply dumping the contents of a cardboard box into some hot water is not the best way to cook a meal? I’m shocked

            Bro eww that’s disgusting.

            You add the whole box into some hot water. The cardboard is protein.

            It gets even better though, 'cos you can get all deviant and start adding to the recipe with a few bits of mushroom, bacon or maybe even chorizo

              I like to add mini pizzas, corndogs, a bowl of solidified soup, and 87 cans of beer.

              My man, chorizo is the best meat there is. It makes every meal better
