    Still not sure about the onions, I might leave them out next time. BUT, out
    of desperation I used plain shake’n’bake for my topping and it was SO.
    GOOD. I may never use bread crumbs again.

    Instead of chopping the onions, can’t you just grate them?

    Alton’s shirt is awesome.

    Funny, right after this video ended, in the actual episode on Food Network
    Alton shows how to make mac and cheese that tastes just like the stuff out
    of the box. The casserole type mac and cheese with breadcrumbs is good and
    all, but I was raised on the box stuff, so there’s a dark twisted side of
    me that prefers the box to the casserole. I don’t think I’m cursed, there’s
    just something tantalizing about those tender elbow noodles and that tangy
    orange cheese powder with a mysterious similarity to crack cocaine…

    Onions? Well that’s the best way to ruin any dish.

    Did I miss the mixing of the actual macaroni or were steps omitted?

    Boxed macaroni and cheese = unspeakable sin.

    I actually like his “evil” personality from cutthroat kitchen

    Do the bread crumbs on top help prevent the top macaroni layer from
    overcooking? That’s one of the things I have against baked pasta. I can’t
    stand it when noodles are overcooked and get all hard and crunchy.

    I say add all the cheese, then put more on top!

    He lost me at onions. Onions in Mac and Cheese? Blech!
