“Fooled the Kid Kritics again. They did not know they were eating Rice Cheddar. It looked, smelled and tasted like traditional mac and cheese. Not only were they surprised, they continued to ask for seconds. Fortunately, we had enough for everyone. But these kids didn't stop there. They asked for the recipe! By the way, we did put tomato slices in the middle and a sprinkle of oregano. It was their favorite item in the taste test menu!”
