I think you're misrepresenting the nature of some folks on here who look at ingredients like this with disdain. In my opinion it has less to do with some made up story about posters here being snobs and more to do with the fact that it's unhealthy bastardized version of real food.

For instance, Velveeta Cheese has 410mg of sodium per ounce. And this recipe calls for 16 ounces of it. Wrap your head around that.

That is a lot of sodium

Really the only reason I ever see to use velveeta is in some sort of cheese dip because it melts with ease

It's tough to get other cheese dips just right, particularly if you can't keep them hot
