“the joys of your childhood dont last forever” didn’t expect this quote from a mac n cheese tasting video
Real Wisdom
i feel like a lot of these have some raw line in them
one i distinctly remember is "I'd rather have absolute falsehoods than a sickening truth" from the trying little debbie snacks video
I would love SungWon to redo the downer moments from this video in his Werner Herzog voice 😂
This is the exact thing I’d expect in a Kraft mac and cheese video
17:46
With every Let's Try video you make, we get closer to my dream of Let's Try Totinos Pizza Rolls.
Heres to hoping that it happens!
Yes.
Twink the Star Kid is gonna need to guest rate for that one.
Are you trying to kill him 😂
Yes we need this
I'm having fun imagining ProZD at the Target checkout line with nothing but 15 different Kraft macaroni and cheese products in his cart.
You’re having fun imagining someone buying things? You need to get out more.
@@Carl_McMelvin I'm having fun imagining someone buy a lot of one thing. But yeah, maybe I should touch more grass.
@@youtubeviolatedme7123 I'm having fun imagining grass
Self-checkout was made for situations like this.
"Another video, SungWon?"
"...just scan my damn Target card."
Oh heck yes, finally a new one.
Edit: To your question, ProZD, not only do people watch these, but they're fun to rewatch after a while.
I second this. There's something about his delivery especially on the disappointments that makes a 20-30 min video of a guy eating food so enjoyable.
The rewatchibility is no joke, the Oreo one is literally addicting.
I just like hearing ProZD talk about food lol
"Does anyone even watch these anymore?" YES. Sungwon, I absolutely adore the lets try videos! They're so comforting, even if it's a food or drink I dont like, I always watch! They make me feel happy, please don't ever stop 💜
I refuse to eat food that is not first rated by Sungwon
I need to figure out the best ones from a reliable source
I was gonna say the same! I love these videos.
im vegan and i eat these up... granted, i too was a lover of kraft mac.
The trick with the shapes is to slightly undercook them, makes the texture much better.
It's surprising as I recall shapes being the clear winner vs basic noodle at some point.
I usually cut the time by half
Always have to waaaay undercook those shapes. If they are in the water too long, they completely fall apart when mixing the cheese.
@@gdrad I remembered the same thing growing up. The cheese powder would get stuck in the crevices and pack a serious flavor punch (for what it was), so you got a much more heterogeneous product compared to the classic mac.
They're so thin you have like a 15 second window of it being Al dente before it turns to mush
"Are people even watching anymore?"
We are. We who love our milk and butter mac'n'cheese still are.
Someone should tell him that you don't have to follow the cooking instructions and can, in fact, put less water and replace it with some milk and butter in the microwave versions.
Eating directly from the pot is undeniably the most sophisticated method of consumption for Kraft mac.

Thank you for the grocery list noted as well, very helpful
Don’t forget the milk and butter! 🥛🧈
thank you for the time stamp
Do Americans not get tomato flavored Kraft dinner?
@@Drakonak A lot will just add ketchup on top.
As someone who survived on the microwaveable ones through college, you have to let them sit (covered) after heating, for the cheese to be absorbed and become more gooey.
I think more gooey isn't a good thing either lol
I always improved them by draining the water and putting a splash or milk and butter in there. the water only with the powder never gets rich enough
@@amberbydreamsart5467 butter makes everything better
@@johnsk16 The moisture evaporates and it'll be less soupy. Problem with microwave is that the starches don't drain away.
This comment made me try them again, and man what an improvement. Thank you
I love the “let’s try“ videos you make, they’re very enjoyable and strangely calming. I had my wisdom teeth removed yesterday and this video made me feel better, thank you.
yeah it's weird but i have horrible anxiety combined with winter depression rn & i am so happy for a new one of these. just the most cozy gentle video.
whoa I also just got mine removed, though last week. hope your recovery goes well.
It's the music for me for sure. Love it and find it so relaxing.
hope you feel better!!
Ik right, it's like weirdly calming my geuss. Is it his smooth voice with the calm music
the editing on this is absolutely killing me, it's SO good
I echo your sentiment. It's such a little thing, but it adds so much to the video ❤
"Salt plastic" is my new favorite adjective. Always happy to watch your childhood memories get slowly crushed by bad tasting food
The cauliflower mac is indeed an unsung hero of the blue box line. I know it's not exactly *healthy* but it helps me feel a little bit better about downing a whole box of mac and cheese by myself while also tasting delicious.
As always, I live for these Let's Try episodes. The Animal Crossing music is like a warm comfy blanket.
EDIT: The variations of the Deluxe mac and cheese change it up and are worth checking out. A couple that you missed include sharp cheddar flavor that adds a nice punch of cheesy flavor, and the homestyle flavor which comes with a breadcrumb seasoning packet to add.
What was the song used at 1:20
i just watched a grown man eat kraft macaroni and cheese for 18 minutes and i do not regret any second of it
me: "well, I know what I'm making for dinner tonight!"
my brain: "I am also out of milk."
thank you for including the gluten free version! i loved the original stuff growing up, but i was diagnosed with celiac in my 20s so i can only have the gluten free version. so it makes me really happy to know that someone who has options actually enjoys it!
My dad actually prefers Jovial Brown Rice pasta and Betty Crocker Gluten-Free brownies now, and he was so against eating any substitutes in the beginning, since HE could still eat gluten. It's been so great only needing to cook one batch of pasta instead of two.
Even besides not having milk/butter to add, and the pitiful size, the other issue with the easy mac cups is that they're INCREDIBLY dependent on how much water is leftover in the cup when it's done. I've had cups from the same package and sometimes the difference between "yeah that was okay" and "that didn't taste like anything" was like a teaspoon of water
Agreed on the OG and Spirals. Shame he missed Thick and Creamy and White Cheddar. They're my fave non-OG ones.
Spirals are gas
Yeah was expecting to see white cheddar
Spirals slap
Thick and Creamy is my go-to! Well, it's called Extra Creamy where I'm from. I'd hoped he would try it.
I know these may not get the most views, but just wanted to say that my wife and I really enjoy watching these together while eating dinner. It's always quite fun to see what your tastes are and to go out and try some of the things you like to see if we agree or not. Thanks for making these!
“IM MAKING MAC AND CHEESE, AND NO ONE CAN STOP ME”
- ProZd
I get the microwavable ones and don't drain them, but I do undershoot the water a bit, or else I'll microwave it slightly longer than recommended to evaporate off more of the water. The default way to make them is, I agree, too watery.
I got this umami mushroom seasoning powder at Trader Joe’s. Sprinkled some of that in the last classic Mac and cheese I made. Was incredible. Can recommend.
Prozd. I watch these. These are my favorite videos you make, to be honest. I actually take your ratings into consideration.
I can't believe i stopped the video, went to the kitchen and cooked mac and cheese for 10 minutes came back and ate along with Sung
Considering this is my FAVORITE series on your channel, yes. We do watch these. Make more, in fact.
100,000 views in a day. He knows we watch.
As someone who found out they had Celiac in my 20s, I was ecstatic to find out just how serviceable of a replacement the gluten free Kraft was. There's definitely a difference, but it scratches that itch I had been missing for so long.
Original stovetop with half-and-half, butter, and hot sauce cooked for only 4 minutes is S+ tier comfort food
Edit: #1 rule with boxed pasta of any kind: the directions are just suggestions, do not follow them rigidly - especially the time to cook! Learning this has made boxed pasta 1000% more enjoyable for me
My preferred method of original is extra cheese, lots of black pepper, and subbing some of the butter with leftover bacon grease (if I fried any earlier for other purposes, it stores easily and makes a good softened butter substitute). A little creole seasoning can be fun too. And I like topping things with parsley personally.
One night I also just made a full cheese sauce, crust, etc. for baked mac n cheese but also used Kraft as a base and it was fun. I suspect most people eating Kraft don't wanna go through the effort of making normal baked mac n cheese tho lol.
@@stars4809 It's the little things, really. The pepper goes a long way.
Sometimes I replace both milk and butter with sour cream for an extra tangy mac
🤢 🤮
I eat the spirals, cook for 4 minutes drain add butter, white pepper, garlic and onion powder add milk and cook on low until combined my mom likes to eat hers with hot sauce
Shapes absolutely taste different from the others! I have a theory it is intentional as many little little kiddos prefer bland flavor profiles and so bc its usually the smaller kiddos who want the shapes, they start them off with a milder tasting sauce compared to "big kid" mac which is not shaped and is the original varieties!
If you get the chance, you should try the "Thick and Creamy" version. The mac is much more rich since you have to add more milk and cheese powder. Kinda surprised it wasn't in this video, they're pretty common in grocery stores
Just commented the same 😂 it's the best!!!
I was surprised when they didn’t get the Thick and Creamy one
watching these videos and imagining Sungwon in line at the grocery store buying all of these variations at once makes me feel better about the times that I go to the grocery store and buy nothing but box wine, hummus, and bread
Yeah, people be watching these. They're great.
Still love these "let's try" videos, first watches can get me interested in trying new flavors of things I enjoy, and then they're fun as something to put on in the background while I do something else.
If you're ever in Canada again, I highly highly recommend the President's Choice brand white chedder macaroni and cheese.
We take our Kraft dinner very seriously up here haha
I was going to comment this too! So good!
If there was anything to have as an alternative to OG KD it’s PC White cheddar.
the Sharp Cheddar KD is also an improvement on the original
Remember our medium cheddar is their “sharp”. We like our cheese stronger, our sharp will blow their minds.
PC mac is so yummy, i need to have that soon
why do you hold spoons like a shovel
Have we done a let’s try on toaster strudels? I haven’t had them since I was a child but I remember them having both sweet and savory flavors. Could be interesting
I believe the savory ones are called Toaster Scrambles instead, and at least in my area they're notably expensive for what you get, which is disappointing because I remember enjoying them.
ohhh i havent done a toaster strudel in way too long, i gotta get a box of the chocolate ones now
“Does anyone even watch these”
It’s literally my favorite content you make lol
The key to the Easy Mac is to slightly under fill. This also helps my suspicion that shaped cheese is different than the regular cheese.
i love watching these type of videos, it's so comforting!
Adulting means buying the cheese powder in a 5lb tub and using whatever pasta you want. For a gummier texture just add a spoon of baking soda to the pasta water. Hoosier Farms is my fave cheese powder. Also amazing on popcorn.
Need to also have in this which one makes the “best macaroni sound”
I make that white cheddar garlic and herb one whenever I have leftover rotisserie chicken. Shred some chicken up, make some broccoli (green beans, or frozen peas and carrots work too, whatever you prefer) and chop it up real fine. Then make the mac and mix it all up. The added ingredients help it feed more mouths (or help it last for some leftovers if you're solo) and add some flavors and nutrients to round it out as a meal on it it's own. Would really recommend for a quick meal!
you asked "do you watch these?" yes. I have watched each of your trying food videos at least three times each excluding the livestream ones, I love this kind of content, keep up the good work!
The editing was hilarious in this video! Thank you for the funny content!
I'm a huge fan of the stovetop Deluxe ones because I prefer salty cheese over sweet cheese, but also it's so much easier! I even bought a device I use to squeeze out the sauce (think a larger version of a toothpaste roller). You should try the white cheddar and cracked black peppercorn.
Easy Mac is always watery and gross. I've never liked any shaped versions. I feel like they make the pasta from different ingredients.
What device are you talking about with getting the cheese sauce out of the pouch? I need it in my life.
@@Ajz092 search for Big Squeeze tube squeezing tool. It's the one with the handle and mickey mouse ears crank. Unfortunately it's not big enough to fit the entire width of the sauce packet so I get a little out and then fold the packet to fit, but it helps get all the sauce out!
Man that editing is so on top, it's been a long time since ProZD has done a food review or a let's try food product
The excitement in this video was palpable. It's very clear you very much love Kraft Mac and Cheese
" _this (gimmick M&C) sucks ass..._ ** "
gods, he's just like me, fr fr
i watch these very often. especially as I prep to go to bed. It's the perfect amount of information and chillness as I'm trying to wind down for the night. And you are descriptive enough that i can look away from the video. The board game reviews I have to be more attentive.
Your let’s try some food videos are the thing I discovered you by and I love your channel! Please never stop making these. My favorite videos on RUclips for real. S tier content.
Please keep making more of these, they're so fun to watch
I LOVE the boxed Deluxe, but I always fry some kinda spicy cured meat like calabrese and add it in after.
i love the Let's Try videos where Sungwon gets a haircut midway 😂 reminds me of that comment on the Subway video about the food blowing his hair up or smth
I love these videos so much. Not sure how I feel about the added bits of flair sprinkled throughout... you are far more interesting than any added flair. Anyway, thanks for continuing to make these!
And then our hero Prozd never went to the bathroom again
I am a Spiral's stan and was holding my breath. Glad we got there 🙏
I really like your food reviews. In some cases even more than your skits. The new stop frame with the name and number of the food was a nice touch.
"Do people even watch these?"
Brother, you have no idea. I absolutely love these videos.
I don't know what's more surprising; the fact that these were all so different, or the fact that there are 15 different versions of Kraft Mac n cheese.
A triumphant return for this series I missed these
I have literally no clue why these are so enthralling to watch, someone please explain myself to myself
I'm so excited for this! This is definitely my favorite series on the channel
I watch these! The editing is fantastic on this one
I love this series. I can never get enough and I watch every single one.
Love the editing and extra love and care in this one. Amazing videos!
These videos are my favorite of yours. Also loving the bit extra effort of editing. Props to the editor
This is making me think you should try different Hamburger Helpers at some point.
The sound of the spoon clanging against your teeth is driving me insane
Love the let's try videos. It makes me so happy when I see one show up in my feed.
Thank you for creating this content, I can’t tell you how much I love it and how comforting it is.
im like 30 seconds in, but the editing on this is so good tho, props to the editor! (is it jay??)
I was hoping you'd try the spicy cheeto flavors!
"My child-like innocence is dying. Nostalgia is dead and shapes are no more". -ProZD, 2023
One of my former roomies has family living in Point Roberts, WA, so they had easy access to Canadian groceries. One of the treats they sent to him, and he shared with us, was Kraft Dinner, the Canadian version of the original Kraft Mac & Cheese. Y'all got it good up there in Canada, is all I'm gonna say about that.
Something I sometimes add to KD is a tiny bit of sour cream. It gives it a nice creamy taste, as long as you get a sour cream without too much added flavor.
i add greek yogurt, which is very similar! def gives it a bit of tang
@@kaemincha I've heard adding Greek or Natural Yogurt is really good. If it werent so expensive where I live, I would love to try making some sauces like Ranch with it.
I wonder if the shapes are purposefully blander because kids in America tend to not like strong flavors?
i mean, kids in America ate plain mac n cheese for years and they were fine... Kraft mac is already known for being fairly bland (not saying that's bad, i love it). I think something about the texture of the noodles and possbily the ingredients of the shaped ones changes from the OG experience.
This series does cheer me up/give me nice things to put in the bg to do work to or relax with, when nobody else is home...also sometimes when I shop I take product flavors based off your reccomends OR even your panned ones because you state it has something in it that your taste buds dislike but MY taste buds would enjoy, like lime flavored things or extra chocolatey things, when I crave it.
I'm still watching and enjoying! Love each food's title card; it really helps me remember which is which when I apply your knowledge to my shopping 👌
It has grain, dairy, and is eaten with a spoon. Macaroni and Cheese is Cereal
how dare you say something so controversial yet so brave. LMAO
you're so right oomfie
Is cake a cereal if I eat it with a spoon?
@@DemiroseCrab he is joking. And you are serious. Read the room.
Mac n cheese is much more like porridge because it is warm.
@@Zahnpuppy I was also joking.
Love the asmr aspect of this episode
I totally watch these!! I always love watching your food reviews 😊
These are some of my favorite videos by you! I watch the whole thing
HOT take, I make my Mac and Cheese without the milk and I think it tastes so much better without it
This might be an unpopular opinion, but I prefer the less editing of the previous videos. Idk, it just gives the feel of old RUclips. I appreciate the efforts and of course you don’t have to listen, but just your calm voice and the Animal Crossing OST in the background is the best!
I love watching these videos. All his food videos are comfort vids for me. Whenever I'm really stressed or need to relax I put them on.
I love these videos! They're always a joy to watch!
I'm always triggered when I see him holding a spoon.
I had to check to see how I hold a spoon for comparison. The ProZD method is def unorthodox, but effective
1) dude. You didn’t even include KRAFT DINNER. This was a major failure of exclusion.
2) your dentist called and told me to tell you to stop grinding your spoon on your teeth.
3) the shapes are WAY better. You just overcooked it. 😂
4) if you want shells get velveeta or Annie’s white cheddar.
5) I’m pretty sure you overcooked everything. There shouldn’t be that much steam coming off a pasta dish. Looks like you’ve got a bowl of soup every time. Proper straining. And don’t put it back on the burner. 😂
u need the canadian version, Kraft Dinner. as someone who has had both, i will tell you there is a big taste difference in the Canadian stuff. its iconic up here, alongside poutine and beer for many of us.
Very entertaining editing here! Love these videos. :)
Sungwon’s t-shirt game is unparalleled, all bangers
This is my favorite "let's try" video, I love seeing him so enthusastic about eating so much food xD
Finally! I love these videos. I’ve been waiting forever
While I never could stand Kraft, I appreciate your perspective, and this was fun. It was also pretty hilarious to see that that they directly tried to upstage Velveeta shells and cheese (the tastiest product ever to be made from petroleum, in my humble opinion) and failed hard.
yes, i am watching! these videos are just very comfy and i usually watch them while i am eating dinner.. i'm not american so i cant even try half of these foods you eat but that doesnt stop me from enjoying these videos!
The editing is hilarious
and the visiting cats and people commenting are also hilarious
despite how much u suffer in these "Let's Try"s a lot of the time (i salute you, Sungwon), these are my comfort videos. love em :]
These videos always have a comfy vibe to them and they’re perfect to watch after a long day :)
Been awhile since the last Let's Try series. Good to take breaks though so i'm happy to see it come back!~
