When did Mac & Cheese become part of Thanksgiving?

I just don't remember having it at Thanksgiving growing up. Now I see almost everyone has it on their menu.

But I want some effort. Not just some easy make blue box garbage.

I'm bringing mac and cheese this year but def not the blue box. Doing a bacon mac and cheese with a sauce from scratch, then finishing it in the smoker.

I make a mean mac and cheese, but this will be my first time smoking it. I have seen a few recipes and a few people talk about so thought I'd give it a go. Last year one of the cheeses in my sauce was a smoked gouda...so makes sense

There are many who would be very Thankful to be able to serve their family Kraft Mac and Cheese Thursday.

I sure hope we are talking the Deluxe box.
I ate many a box of the cheap stuff in college.

We didn't have it when I was a kid, but my sister in law started bringing it to holiday meals a million years ago. It's one of my son's favorites, so now I make it. My SIL didn't do a topping, but I do.

Baked Mac, ever since I can remember.

We had it as far back as I can remember at my dad's family gatherings. That plus Chicken and Dumplings. My great aunt was awesome at cooking both and it was what the grandkids requested.

I love chicken and dumplings, but never had that at Thanksgiving either.

Always had it growing up.
Just something that all the kids would eat, I guess.

It never did become a part of Thanksgiving. In addition I have never eaten or been served Mac & Cheese. I always though it was a ghetto dish like ramen noodles from the cheap packs.

I'm sorry your life is so sad

A lot of Mac & cheeses use several kinds of cheese and good cheese is expensive
We never had it because my grandma doesn’t like it. But I brought some last year and she said it was good

My grandchildren love Mac n cheese (oldest is 9). I made a great Mac n cheese from scratch and they hated it. So this year blue box. SMH at their mom and dad but I am hopeful they will grow up and change

Little kids dont prefer delicious baked mac and cheese. They prefer the creamy fake cheese over shells.

This baby, made with actual macaroni and bechamel cheese sauce, is out of this world.
