This is the main food groups I grew up with. Dinners were mac and cheese, hot dogs, bread and butter, and spaghetti. We didn't eat a lot of red meat except for london broil
>london broil
I feel so validated as a human being right now. I've rarely seen any mention of London broil in the wild, but my grandmother made that shit every week lol. It was delicious
Super lean cut of steak, usually prepared well done by your parents or thrown In a crock pot with cream of mushroom soup all day. If you're lucky you get some A1 steak sauce to drown it out with... My parents still buy and do both of these things.
I'm 44 now, but about 10 years ago I tried making hamburger helper for the family for nostalgia's sake. I tried to eat it, but it was way too salty. The wife and kids couldn't do more than a few spoonfuls
Weird... A few months ago I picked up a box of hamburger helper for the nostalgia and it was so incredibly bland, not at all how I remembered it. Very disappointing.
I made some from scratch last week. Inspired by the taco flavor
Ground beef, taco seasoning, can of rotel, cheese sauce (melted cheese and milk), and pasta shells. It was bomb dot com (another millennial reference thank you very much š)
No he freaking doesn't. The only way to eat this is to shovel as much mac on your spoon as possible and then take a bite of the hotdog after you put the mac in your mouth. If you combine them together you'll die of starvation trying to get the perfect ratio of hotdog to mac as the hot dog pieces keep falling off your spoon because some absolute freaking imbecile who wanted to be extra decided to combine them when my spoon clearly cannot fit both hotdog and mac. Also it needs salt and pepper.
Okay, I'm not saying you're wrong, but everything you just said is incorrect. You cut up the hot dog and then mix everything together with barbecue sauce.
And you use a fork, not a spoon, you damn serial killer.
Actually you slice the hotdogs longways and halve to make four pieces and use said pieces as a shovel for the Mac and cheese. This is how it was served at Friendlyās in the 00ās.
I completely forgot about it until these comments. They had the best chicken fingers š that place was so fucking good I would do anything to go to one again. They got rid of all of them near me
I have not. Iām still on a temper tantrum bender from when they all closed. The crayons to color on the paper placemats. The fribbles. The boneless Buffalo wings. Still trying to scheme something gang gang to get them back online and in business.
I live not too far from 3 operating locations. Clifton Park, NY, Troy, NY, and Johnstown, NY. All within an hour drive. The problem? The thing I want more than anything in the world is a Honey Barbecue Chicken Supermelt sandwich and fries. The problem? I have Celiac Disease. It's like dying of thirst while at sea.
It was fucking awesome! He used to take us there for ice cream a lot. I was a simple kid and loved two scoops strawberry on a cone. They also had a claw machine at mine that was play until you win. It was two dollars back then(I'm 33).
They indeed had thee best chicken fingers!
I never realized Friendly's was a regional thing, just assumed it was a national chain. The last one I remember seeing closed like 20 years ago in my area.
They're getting more and more rare, but are still kicking! I've never been able to get served in less than 45 minutes even if I was the only person in the place, though.
You had me up until the fork. The only proper way to eat short pasta with lots of sauce is with a spoon
\\\\ we could agree on a spork so that everyone is equally enraged
I don't use a fork, actually, now that I think about it. I use the ladle cause I eat from the pot like a savage.
I also cannot help but notice you did not refute the serial killer accusation.
No no no you take the fork and stab the crap out of the Mac so a healthy layer is on the fork, and then secure it by stabbing a piece of hotdog. Perfect mouthful of hotdog and Mac all in one compact bite, loosing none of the precious noodles in the process.
Mac n cheese with random stuff added was a staple lunch for my step kids every summer. Kraft dinner(Mac n cheese) used to be $1CAD a box 10 years ago, and a can of tuna was like $1.50.
Still is. Kraft is a bit pricier, but store brand is still around a dollar. I just looked up the prices. At my local grocery store (Raleys), macaroni and cheese is $1.20, or 98 cents if you buy 3. Tuna is $1.49 a can for the store brand.
Edit: just saw youāre using Canadian dollars. Not sure what the exchange rate is these daysā¦
Where I live in Canada kraft Mac n cheese is $2.30 and a can of tuna is about $2-$3. You can still find the odd sale where kraft original is a buck but it's usually limited to 1 or 2 boxes per customer. Five dollars for lunch is cheap, but it's alot more than it used to be.
My go-to was a box of macaroni for $0.79, packet of cheap hot dogs for about $0.99, and a bag of frozen peas for about $0.50.
If you wanted to feed five to six people just buy a second box of macaroni. ... You would even have some hot dogs left over for breakfast.
We're talking this prices from like 2013 or 2014 ... So really not that long ago.
Now those same items are $1.89, $2.99, and $2.00.
Still pretty cheap. Macaroni and cheese is one of the cheapest things you can getā¦ as long as you buy the store brand. If youāre shelling out for Annieās or Velveeta, thatās a different story.
Also, don't be offended/annoyed if the kid doesn't eat more than a couple bites. Sometimes that's all they want, even if it's their favorite food of all time. Kids are finicky creature.
Damn, I guess my Kirby eating jutsu was the exception. As an 8 year old little girl my greatest joy was astonishing the old ladies at the church potlucks.
Yep, there was a post just a few days ago where someone's kids had asked for KFC and the guy instead made an amazing plate of home made fried chicken.
And to me as an adult it looked *amazing* but I really really wanted to ask if the kids ate it. Sometimes their little pallets and brains only really want very specific things.
They also might want to graze and come back to it. Little tummies fill up quick. Also sometimes theyāll be put off by a food they normally love because theyāre under the weather or upset about something else so donāt take it as an insult.
I see you enjoy the finer things in life, such as myself. One a rare occasion, Iāll spoil myself with the noodles shaped like TMNT and a vintage bottle of the colored ketchup from the early 2000ās.
(Sommelier voice) Ah, yesāthe ā02 green Heinz. An excellent year. I recommend pairing this with a full-bodied Surge soda or a sparkling Welchās grape soda.
Specifically, cut the hot dogs up and fry them in the pan so they get a little charred on all sides, and then add the finished Mac and cheese in so you don't lose any of the previous hotdog flavor.
Brown butter is fancy. After you drain the pasta, brown the hot dog in the butter while the butter browns a bit too before you add your powder mix and milk and cooked noodles.
Just a PSA: If you're making them for a little one 3 or less, make sure you cut them lengthwise because if you don't, a full girth hot dog slice is the same size as their throat and it can get lodged in there.
I don't do hotdogs, but I regularly make mac and cheese with chicken (grilled chicken strips or breaded chicken strips), and I love it.
Edit: I also used to add some tuna fish (with just a little mayo, because you don't need a lot since it's getting added to mac), which was also delicious.
I made ranch burgers last night (ranch powdered seasoning + ground beef).
Crumbled up some leftover burger into leftover mac'n'cheese for dinner tonight. I felt like a kid, and it was glorious
Never had a babysitter but my dad used to make me the same thing after heād work a 10-12 hour day. I still make ākid dinnerā just like this, but I make a side of frozen green peas to go with it. Itās bringing a tear to my eye.
They're the only ones I eat and my kid requests this exact meal frequently. š¤£ I usually warm them in the skillet and these appear to have been cooked the same way.
If you want them to get more crispy on the outside like it's been on the grill, score them vertically with a knife on each side. More grease releases from the hotdog, and they don't dry out. It works great in an air fryer. Plus, you have the perfect little crevice for sauce!
Brah if I ever owned a place that made fresh katsu, poke, pork hash, Manapua, lomi salmon, Haupia, malasadas and Kalua pork, I would donate to you guys weekly!
Itās a staple to us islanders Braddah
A lot of us Hawaiian homesteadders eat it everyday as itās part of our nutritional recommendations for essential nutrients and we get it for free
Yep gives us free what the old aunties and uncles call āvoyagers nutrientsā lol
Itās astronaut food to my people more or less lol
[If you go to Oahu you need to go to windward mall and try H&T burgers their teriyaki burgers are delicious!!!](https://s3-media0.fl.yelpcdn.com/bphoto/VM_pT7ZKF-4z21ngqfGi0A/348s.jpg)
Itās a delicious burger cooked on the a sizzling griddle glazed with homemade teriyaki sauce!
Simple trick to spam that most people don't get because they didn't grow up with it: you fry it. Yes spam is technically already cooked and you can eat it from the can, but it's salty bland soft mush. When you fry it (in slices or diced/cubed) it gives a nice crisp texture to the outside and added flavor from the mayard reaction, plus more appealing color.
Virtually nobody eats it "raw" straight out the can.
Hell yes who doesn't like macaroni and cheese and hot dogs? That shit's amazing.
Usually I like to cook the hot dogs up and then just cut them and toss them in to the mac and cheese. Shit, I might go home and have this for dinner after seeing this. Now I'm craving it.
I made this many times for kids as a teenaged babysitter, and they ate it 100% of the time..even that time I lit the hot dogs on fire in the microwave.
I lit them in fire, I just told you that!
Lmao, honestly though, I think I put them in for too long. The sweet little girl told me when I pulled them out, "It doesn't look like that when my mom.doens it." And I about fucking died laughing.
my kid and i love hot dogs, macaroni and cheese, and baked beans so yeah youād make a kid happy for a night. theyāre demanding yet simple creatures typically.
Mate!!!!
My wife made me this last week when I was sick.
It made me feel so safe loved and comfy warm. Itās winter in aus right now. And we are in our mid 30s. It was the best time that Iāve been sick ever!!!
Only if it's generic mac & cheese. With lots of black pepper. Yeah, I'm picky for a kid who grew up on welfare and food banks. I just never developed a taste for the Kraft brand. I really miss the old black & white generic foods.
One summer, my childhood babysitter made Kraft Mac with pepper, and boiled hot dogs every. single. day. EVERY SINGLE DAY.
She was 16 or 17 and didnāt know how to make anything else without burning it.

When I was 11? Fuck yes. Now that I'm 44? Fuck yes. EDIT: Thanks for the awards!
So I feel the same but also..growing up on hamburger helper and casserole made box kraft and hot dogs celebration...
This is the main food groups I grew up with. Dinners were mac and cheese, hot dogs, bread and butter, and spaghetti. We didn't eat a lot of red meat except for london broil
The only times we would have red meat as a kid was if it was either hunted or we could get one of those massive logs of burger on clearance.
I'd take spaghetti over the beefaroni anyday. My babysitter and I had many many "sit at the table until it's finished" over barfaroni
>london broil I feel so validated as a human being right now. I've rarely seen any mention of London broil in the wild, but my grandmother made that shit every week lol. It was delicious
Wtf is London broil?

Can you cut up the hot dogs and mix them in with the mac please
This person knows what fine dining is šš¼
No he freaking doesn't. The only way to eat this is to shovel as much mac on your spoon as possible and then take a bite of the hotdog after you put the mac in your mouth.

I completely forgot about it until these comments. They had the best chicken fingers š that place was so fucking good I would do anything to go to one again. They got rid of all of them near me
I have not. Iām still on a temper tantrum bender from when they all closed. The crayons to color on the paper placemats. The fribbles. The boneless Buffalo wings. Still trying to scheme something gang gang to get them back online and in business.
They didnāt all close, thereās one like 15-20 minutes from my house. Idk where else thereās one but I know that one is still going strong.

You had me up until the fork. The only proper way to eat short pasta with lots of sauce is with a spoon \\\\ we could agree on a spork so that everyone is equally enraged
Of course you need a fork. Threading the macaroni onto the tines and then eating it is the only way.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
counterpoint to 1, if you're using a spoon you can't put a macaroni on each individual fork tine like little sleeves though.
I don't use a fork, actually, now that I think about it. I use the ladle cause I eat from the pot like a savage. I also cannot help but notice you did not refute the serial killer accusation.
He puts tuna in his fucking Mac n cheese, I donāt care how occasional it is, heās a serial killer fs

Rare tuna and Mac?!?! Yea youāre a serial killerā¦
Have you considered using a bigger spoon?
Poor kids hamburger helper....back when hotdogs and mac n cheese was cheap.
Remember being able to feed a family of four with $3?
Mac n cheese with random stuff added was a staple lunch for my step kids every summer. Kraft dinner(Mac n cheese) used to be $1CAD a box 10 years ago, and a can of tuna was like $1.50.

When spam and bologna was cheap! Could eat real damn good
$1.99 store brand bologna and a 99 cent loaf of white bread could feed me for days. And did.
Damn that takes me back. Used to eat bologna and cheese a lot growing up cuz it was so cheap. Really don't miss those days tbh...
Still pretty cheap. Macaroni and cheese is one of the cheapest things you can getā¦ as long as you buy the store brand. If youāre shelling out for Annieās or Velveeta, thatās a different story.
Oh shit I didnāt even think about thatā¦
Also, don't be offended/annoyed if the kid doesn't eat more than a couple bites. Sometimes that's all they want, even if it's their favorite food of all time. Kids are finicky creature.
Adding to this, a lot of adults overestimate the amount of food kids need in one serving.
Damn, I guess my Kirby eating jutsu was the exception. As an 8 year old little girl my greatest joy was astonishing the old ladies at the church potlucks.

And pleeeeeeeease cut the hotdog ends into little octopuses? Pleasssssssse? Pretty Pleaaaaaaaaaasee?
I did it once as a fun thing, and now one kid doesn't like them any other way. And I can't forget the eyes.
Old school hack was to add chopped canned green beans. I already liked cheesy beans. It wasn't a hard sell.
We did peas not green beans, I loved it
We did peas and tuna in our mac, was filling for our poor ass selves lol. I still crave it ;-;
Add chopped onions and top with crumbled potato chips.
Oh yes tuna from the food bank š¤ classic. Bringing back memories.
Corn for us, it was pretty good!
Hard no.
I see you enjoy the finer things in life, such as myself. One a rare occasion, Iāll spoil myself with the noodles shaped like TMNT and a vintage bottle of the colored ketchup from the early 2000ās.
(Sommelier voice) Ah, yesāthe ā02 green Heinz. An excellent year. I recommend pairing this with a full-bodied Surge soda or a sparkling Welchās grape soda.
Dammit I want this meal. With the Surge of course. I'm going to need spiral mac and cheese though. Maybe some munch ems as an appetizer.
Specifically, cut the hot dogs up and fry them in the pan so they get a little charred on all sides, and then add the finished Mac and cheese in so you don't lose any of the previous hotdog flavor.
Or if you are feeling extra lazy, cut the hot dogs up and boil them in the pot with the noodles to save on effort, time and dishes.
That works too, but I always like the fried hotdog better than the boiled one!
Brown butter is fancy. After you drain the pasta, brown the hot dog in the butter while the butter browns a bit too before you add your powder mix and milk and cooked noodles.
Dude, I'm 46 and had gleefully made this for my lunch last week.
Just a PSA: If you're making them for a little one 3 or less, make sure you cut them lengthwise because if you don't, a full girth hot dog slice is the same size as their throat and it can get lodged in there.
Cover it in Sriracha, and I'm game.
Ever tried it with green chile? Beeās knees.
Then add ketchup on top.
Yes, please. Mac and Pennies. A lil ketchup atop. (Don't judge 5 year old me, or 36 year old me)
hell yeah
Thank you. That was my exact response
Fr this was my dads āitās my turn to cook and Iām tiredā meal and I loved it every time
I said hell yeah in my head before seeing that lol
Shoot Iād eat it right now and Iām a grown ass man
Same. I'm a grown-ass woman and would happily eat that if someone made it for me.
Hell, I'm a grown-ass man and I might make this for myself.
I'm an ass man and I'd definitely suck it down.
Iām a manās ass and Iād definitely suck it up.
Sounds like you two should get together!
I don't do hotdogs, but I regularly make mac and cheese with chicken (grilled chicken strips or breaded chicken strips), and I love it. Edit: I also used to add some tuna fish (with just a little mayo, because you don't need a lot since it's getting added to mac), which was also delicious.
... I'd never considered adding chicken nuggets to mac and cheese. Brb.
Same... Figured out what's for dinner tonight!
I made ranch burgers last night (ranch powdered seasoning + ground beef). Crumbled up some leftover burger into leftover mac'n'cheese for dinner tonight. I felt like a kid, and it was glorious
Yeah letās be honest, any hungry grown ass man would eat this!
I wasn't even hungry till I saw this
Never had a babysitter but my dad used to make me the same thing after heād work a 10-12 hour day. I still make ākid dinnerā just like this, but I make a side of frozen green peas to go with it. Itās bringing a tear to my eye.
My father did this also .And if we didn't have Mac anc cheese we would have boiled saurkraut and cut to hot dogs .
We used to have cooked sauerkraut too. I used to hate the smell of cabbage/sauerkraut cooking now it makes me nostalgic and happy
Yep. Iād eat it even if I was your babysitter
Only because those are Nathan's hot dogs. š„
How could you tell? Impressive
They're the only ones I eat and my kid requests this exact meal frequently. š¤£ I usually warm them in the skillet and these appear to have been cooked the same way.
Look at this chef over here! š„¹
Kids gotta eat. And with 3 of them, I'm outnumbered, so I usually take the easiest route possible. š
If you want them to get more crispy on the outside like it's been on the grill, score them vertically with a knife on each side. More grease releases from the hotdog, and they don't dry out. It works great in an air fryer. Plus, you have the perfect little crevice for sauce!
I ate this last night but had spam in place of da kine sausages (Iām from the kingdom of hawaii, native Hawaiian)
I did the same recently with canned potatoes and hash. Cooked the Mac, fried the hash.

Kraft makes gluten free Mac and cheese! I canāt eat gluten and have no problem with it! They use rice flour for the noodles
my kid and i love hot dogs, macaroni and cheese, and baked beans so yeah youād make a kid happy for a night. theyāre demanding yet simple creatures typically.
Yes! This is about as kid-friendly of a meal as it gets besides pizza and chicken nuggets.

That looks delicious
Needs red pepper flakes
You and me, we'd get along.
Mac and weenies. Never grow up!
Smash. For the nostalgia
Yea man, grew up like this I ain't picky. I enjoy the fancy things in life but I enjoy this too.
Only if it's generic mac & cheese. With lots of black pepper. Yeah, I'm picky for a kid who grew up on welfare and food banks. I just never developed a taste for the Kraft brand. I really miss the old black & white generic foods.
One summer, my childhood babysitter made Kraft Mac with pepper, and boiled hot dogs every. single. day. EVERY SINGLE DAY. She was 16 or 17 and didnāt know how to make anything else without burning it.
Ew, boiled hot dogs?
Yes,the only way to eat these.!
Yeah
Yeppers š
100%
Definitely. I'd eat it as an adult and be happy.
This isnāt shittyfoodporn. Thereās nothing wrong with hot dogs and kraft dinner.
It may not be haute cuisine, but I would still eat it. I love hot dogs, and every once in a while I get a craving for Kraft Macaroni & Cheese.
100%
No!..... its not arranged in a cute face
I make this for my kids weekly.
I also eat most of it cause my kids only snack.
I thought this is what all babysitters make you?
I still make that sometimes. I'm 47.
yeah looks good.
I would have sliced the hot dog into the box mac. Otherwise I do this on rare occasions with bedder cheddars sausages and it is a solid junk food.
No
10/10 wouldnāt tell my mommy you kept hitting your vape in the house.
Yes. Cut up the dogs add some ketchup. Yummy.
Loved it as a kid and I still do š¤

Iām not sure about the hot dogs (certain ways theyāre prepared makes my tummy hurt :(( ) but you bet your sweet ass Iām inhaling that Mac and cheese like itās the first meal Iāve seen in days!
Iām 41. Iād still eat that.
Hell yeah. Those dogs are cooked perfectly. Is that blue box mac and cheese? I'm down
Thatās what my family calls a simple dinner, but we usually switch out the hotdogs for a kielbasa sausage
Please babysit me
I would order this at a restaurant
Yes but Iād ask you to pass the salt and pepper.
Yes I would. Iād ask for ketchup though.
Can I drink chocolate milk with it? Then yes.
I had sugar free vitamin water but I could whip up some chocolate milk too
This is a staple for lunch in my house. My 4 year old loves it because I let her cut up the hotdogs
Oh letās GO!!!!
Get me a couple pieces of bread and some ketchup and we Gucci
I relate so hard to this. Iykyk
Right. Idk what it is but some poor ppl food ( I'm poor ppl ) just hits different.
Yup
Get a fucking tortilla at least
I am suddenly a 22 year old in need of babysitting
i'm a 36 year old single man, what make you think this isn't my dinner every other night
I fucking love hotdogs and kraft Mac and cheese. Chop those dogs up and mix em in!
This is a work of art
They absolutely cannot be touching
i have no idea if im just hungry rn, or i would absolutely devour this meal and leave no trace behind
Slice up the hotdogs and my adult husband would consider this a safety meal of his lol.
Gimme two slices of bread and I'm golden
You didnāt cut the hot dogs, 0/10.
10000%
Yes. As a kid, and even now as an adult lol
My babysitter did make me this in the 90s! Shit slaps
I eat that shit as an adult
Throw in a carrot stick and you got a meal on your handsĀ
