    I have a friend that legit thinks she’s queen mom for buying Annie’s over KD like she mom shames everyone ! I’m like dude it’s Mac and cheese in a box calm down lol

    • @GPXgirl says:

      I don’t shame people for buying kraft, you do what you want. I just can’t buy that stuff, because it literally taste like 💩 to me. It tastes like sweaty feet and I don’t get how anyone can eat that crap. It tastes so bad. Even as a kid, the taste just puts me off. The reason I buy Annie’s is solely based on taste. Annie’s tastes better, is because the ingredients are higher quality. It’s like cheap wine, it’s gonna taste like crap because it’s cheap. But if the ingredients are higher quality, it’s obviously going to taste better. I wish Kraft tasted better though, because it’s definitely more cost-effective. It doesn’t matter what you buy, though, it’s your life and you do what you want. Just my opinion though.

      Why is she your friend

    • @danielleelizaharpz says:

      @@iambored678 she’s not a great friend lol

  • @Godblessed2 says:

    Annie’s taste better hands down. But I just make my own from scratch with bacon

  • @PriestessPetal493 says:

    For me, it’s a flavour preference. I personally prefer Annie’s over KD, but both are still comfort foods.

    • @josieannecameron1383 says:

      Exactly!

    • @GPXgirl says:

      I agree, it’s all about the quality of the ingredients. Organic food just tastes better when a product is made with better ingredients, just like wine. It naturally tastes better. I’ve never been able to eat Kraft even when I was a kid. Because it always tasted like sweaty feet to me and it was gross.

  • @rn2787 says:

    To me, it’s like the almond vs. peanut debate. I like both, but I like regular peanut butter more and it’s much cheaper. They are not different enough to justify the cost or taste difference in my opinion.

  • @Otterwaffle says:

    I but annies and kd, they dont taste the same so it depends what i feel like eating

  • @user-uw5ps6nr8g says:

    Basically the almond butter and peanut butter argument which is BS

    • @kayo5291 says:

      There’s a debate over almond vs peanut butter? They are completely different! I avoid almonds, they are a mess to grow, but other than that, why debate?

  • @Jan74 says:

    Eat whichever, throw in some broccoli and chicken pieces and call it a day.

  • @schjlh93 says:

    Wait. I thought you were going to end up with: both are junk.

  • @Baxfam1 says:

    Have you heard of glyphosate?? That’s why some people try to choose organic. You don’t necessarily want to be eating pesticide sprayed wheat if possible and Annie’s organic only costs like 50 cents more

  • @samh6172 says:

    I prefer Annies and at no point have I ever thought of it as health food. It’s more of a comfort/ quick and easy food. I can easily whip it up in the morning for lunch if I have no leftovers I certainly don’t think I’m better than KD eaters…people are weird.

  • @jjfg5147 says:

    Less Sodium would be better……..😮

    • @jessiematthews6339 says:

      For some people. I live in a household where everyone is on a dr. prescribed HIGH sodium diet for POTS. “Healthy” doesn’t always mean the same thing for everyone. 😉

  • @AshK457 says:

    Annie’s is owned by General Mills so its like greenwashing/health food lying??? Idk the word for that one lol

  • @Juciwaters says:

    I’m not sure why but Annie’s, I feel tastes more cheesy

  • @amin44444 says:

    Goodles are the BEST! High fiber and protein, just add some broccoli and chicken thighs and it’s DELICIOUS !!

  • @josieannecameron1383 says:

    Thank you Abby!!! 💛💙❤️ no one should be Mom shamed.

  • @jessiematthews6339 says:

    And remember! Organic food is still grown with pesticides, antibiotics, and “chemicals.” They’re just sometimes different pesticides, antibiotics, and “chemicals” than the standard non-organic food with a much higher price tag. Don’t beat yourself up for NOT being able to afford organic!

  • @gdove5968 says:

    I only buy the Annie’s because their white cheddar shells are the ONLY mac and cheese my autistic child will eat and getting her to eat anything sometimes can be a struggle. The Kraft is a lot cheaper though, at least in stores near me.

  • @leahstewart1002 says:

    i only buy annie’s bc their white cheddar shells are so delicious… never considered whether they were healthier but they sure are delish

  • @lydiacarels7912 says:

    The point is: it’s upf (ultra processed food). Nóthing is as simpel as boiling pasta and adding healthy toppings! ❤

  • @melaniep6543 says:

    Call me old fashioned, but I love KD and it’s a staple in the cud-board, always!
