They put hockey cards in pudding mix ? I want answers !


Not IN the pudding mix. On the back of the box.

They arent there all the time, but sometimes you get a lovely cardboardy hockey card to cut out of the box.

Why does Canada call Kraft Macaroni and Cheese "Kraft Dinner?" Dinner is a generic term for the evening meal, but does not specify WHAT is being eaten.

I dont know...Because the people at Kraft tell us to?

Kraft macaroni and cheese is too many words.
If you say 'Kraft Dinner' you immediately know it is fake cheese product from a box, if you say 'mac and cheese' you know its the good homemade stuff.

Wiki informs me that we have the original title. you people went and changed it, so you are the loopy ones:

The product was originally marketed as Kraft Dinner, but is now known in the United States and other countries as Kraft Macaroni & Cheese (Dinner). In the United Kingdom, it is marketed as Cheesey Pasta, while in Canada, it has retained its original name of Kraft Dinner (and nickname KD).

I like the more specific names. Kraft makes many products, any of which could be eaten for dinner.

I'd buy you a monkey. Havent you always wanted a monkey?

Kraft Dinner was simply being used as an example! I didnt say i eat it.
Real mac and cheese is 100x better.

Sure. I have 3 monkeys, what's one more? It would probably be a month before anyone noticed.

Honestly, I don't know if I've ever had "real" homemade pudding made on the stove. I think I've had "real" macaroni and cheese once, but it was almost like a casserole with several types of cheese blended together. It was good, though. I make Annie's shells and cheese, it's organic pasta and white cheddar cheese. It took a while to get used to it, but now the Velveeta that I used to love tastes kinda weird.

quite honestly, fake pudding is better than homemade stuff. Atleast the homemade stuff i have had.

I used to eat Kraft Dinner as a kid, but havent had it in years. I make the real stuff and it is sooo much better. I used to get funny text msgs from my roommate when we were in different cities and she wanted to make it: "so, what do i do after i cook the pasta." She was pretty hopeless, but is getting better. She used to bring meat to my room on a regular basis and asked me if it was cooked properly, and i had to supervise her sauteing mushrooms once because she didnt understand how to do it. The poor child.

I think what you call puddings we call mousses, regardless of consistency. Maybe.

http://www.cadburydesserts.co.uk/a/img/ourDesserts/productShots/3.gif

I imagine puddings as being cake-like. e.g. christmas pudding, presumably 'cos its got pudding actually in the name. :P

But I guess we do sometimes use the word pudding more generally as substitute for desert.

So when Luna Lovegood says, "I hope there's pudding." She really is hoping for cake? My head is starting to hurt.
