What are some examples of your tastes changing as you got older?

I've started to really like just mustard and sauerkraut on my hotdogs and racing games over FPS because they're a little slower paced.

Mac and cheese?? Fam, that shit is delicious at all ages

Right? Just fancy it up as an adult.

Make yourself a little roux/béchamel sauce and start chuckin in some grated gouda, gruyère, havarti, or whatever kind of cheese you like until you like the taste. Mix in some cooked elbow macaroni and you're set.

It takes slightly more time and attention than the usual pot of neon-orange comfort, but its waaaaaaay better.

Also: you can remove some of the "graininess" of the real cheese by throwing in justba slice of American Cheese. The emuslifing salts in the slices helps the cheese proteins break down and gives your sauce a more velvety feel.

Mac and cheese is delicious for a couple of bites then it just becomes bland to me 🀷

Have you tried dipping Oreos in black coffee though?? It's a fantastic combo.
