Road's End Organics Dairy-Free Macaroni and Chreese®
At first, it looks like a big bowl of brains. And then once you start eating it, it seems even more so. This ain't Kraft, man. Road's End Macaroni and Chreese® is an all-organic Vegan version of macaroni and cheese, made of whole wheat pasta and yeast-based pseudo-cheese (I'd rather not repeat the word "chreese" too much). It's a good idea, but at the point you become a hardcore Vegan, it's really not too much of a concession to give up macaroni and cheese, so the very existence of the product is curious. Don't get me wrong, I think it's fabulous that someone is doing it, but admittedly, once you're down the Vegan rabbit hole, all notions of "comfort food" start to shift into totally different conceptions.
Who knows, if I actually stick to pure Veganism this time (I never seem to last more than a year or 18 months at the longest), maybe I'll return to Road's End for some more Macaroni and Chreese®. As for the taste, I am not kidding: it's how I imagine brains taste. I don't mean that in a bad way at all.
