So WTF is "Cooking Creme"?

I'm not a coupon shopper (we'll take that up another day) but I spotted one
in today's paper for "Cooking Creme". It's made by Kraft, and comes in a
cream cheese-type of tub in several flavors. Apparently it's a sauce to add
to your skillet dinner.

Garbahj!

One more sodium laden, fat laden item for wannabe gourmet cooks, is my
guess. And I bet the homemade version can be had at half the price.

Amazing, I always thought the secret to making every dish "molto buono"
(per kraft marketing) was to use real ingredients not some industrial
flavoring glop...

Everyone tries to come up with the next PostIt. I saw a commercial
for it the other day, but it just sounded to me like they were filling
a need that doesn't exist. Looks like flavored cream cheese that you
stir into something hot to create a sauce. It's another I-don't-cook
thing where they've done it for you. I don't use cream cheese for
sauces, so I wasn't interested in the product.

What I have two flavors of sitting in the refrigerator is that
seasoned butter, but I'm so used to doing my own flavoring I keep
forgetting I have them so they've only been used once.

Love the "PostIt" comment, sf.

Koko and I were roaming the aisles of Sur le Table yesterday and
laughing at some of the ridiculous gadgets, not that I'm immune to
buying ridiculous gadgets. I know Paul Deen touts onion goggles, but
really? Really? I wish I'd been taking notes for this post. My short
term memory seems to be on vacation at the moment, but there were
several instances where Koko and I were head shaking and wondering who
would buy, for instance, a very one-project specific-step item that
could be adequately done with a knife (no, Koko, I'm not talking about
the garnishing tool you bought :)

To reply, remove "spambot" and replace it with "cox"

It sounds like combined with hot macaroni it would be a step above box
mac and cheese, but far below homemade mac and cheese.

They use Mike? He's been missing and now we know where he is. Ground up
into a cheese spread. This is the Australian web site. Do they still allow
cannibalism down there?

The Mexican version uses Raoul instead of Mike.

Here are the glop's ingredients:

"Ingredients: Mike [sic], water, cream, maltodextrin (tapioca),
thickener (1450, from maize), salt, vegetable gums (410, 415, 466),
gelatine, emulsifier (472e), acidity regulator (339), preservative

Now that's scary. With apologies to DuPont's "better living through
chemistry", Kraft seems to believe in "better dining through chemistry".
