You know the show is going downhill when a topic of discussion is a fictional scene about mac-n-cheese.

LOL! You know folks like to nit-pick. As someone whose mother is African American, I can tell you with utmost certainty, we are not a monolith.

I've served macaroni and cheese as a main dish because it can be filling and my family didn't mind. When I did this for a friend from Texas though he was like, "you didn't fix any meat to go with it".

It absolutely is and can be a main dish, especially when made right.

The blue collar Midwest thing (white culture) is beanie weenie mac & cheese.. with mac & cheese served with Pork & beans and cut up hot dogs. Sometimes side by side on a plate, or mixed. The ultimate struggle meal (and what I was raised with during very lean times).

So I'm always intrigued with how mac & cheese is done in other families.
