In early June I put out an APB to family and friends so they could help me find Easy Mac with Bacon. I had searched high and low at numerous grocery stores for several weeks and still hadn’t been able to find a container.

 

Within 2 days of asking my family and friends to help me find this product, I called off the search because a truck stop in Mt. Vernon, Illinois came to the rescue. I stopped for gas and batteries, and left with Easy Mac with Bacon. I was practically skipping with joy to the car.

 

 
But unfortunately my joy quickly turned to disappointment. I realize Easy Mac isn’t the highest quality macaroni and cheese one can consume, but this was pretty disappointing. The bacon bits were barely detectable (the black arrows in the picture point to the bacon bits). It was basically like taking store-bought bacon bits and shaking the final dust from the bottom of the bag into the macaroni and cheese. And the flavor of the bacon was bleh.

 

I’m not embarrassed to admit that I actually like Kraft macaroni and cheese out of the box, so a better option would be to cook and crumble your own bacon into some macaroni and cheese rather than going the Easy Mac route.
