I thought mercians just ate bucketloads of hamburger meat
So I mean it's not just for dinner
Makes sense mac and cheese is British tho so it'll have to be deep fried and left in the sun to rot then smothered with soul food spices I call it the triple me to the toilet deluxe
Nailed it!
Mac and Cheese is literally a bog-standard gratin with Mornay sauce. If the British claim is to have downgraded it by replacing all the veggies with straight carbs then I guess yeah we'll have you let that one.
Wth is gratin. Edit gratin is a cooking technique looking into it not a food item
Mac and cheeses origins ordinate back to the 14 hundreds as a meal most commonly found in the uk and Italy

The modern recipe for the mac and cheese we all love and enjoy nowadays was invented in uk in 1716 invented by a housekeeper and published in her book The Experienced English Housekeeper.

No. Well maybe in the Anglosphere. In Germany you're more likely to see Gratin de chou-fleur, that is, broadly speaking, replace all the macaroni with cauliflower, than Mac&Cheese. If you're being lazy just use a package of frozen veggies, those cauliflower-carrot-pea-butter-spices boxes. Add a potato or two if you want carbs. If you want cheesy comfort pasta there's either proper Carbonara, or a cream and cheese sauce, more or less exactly South Tyrol style.
Offensive.
Sometimes we eat giant steaks instead.
Or sometimes we grind up perfectly good premium steaks into hamburger. Why? Because chewing is for chumps.
As an american my favorite hamburger helper is the "oops, all hamburger!"
Mmmm hamburger
