My guess was something about our food regulations for what can be referred to as "cheese", since Kraft's "American cheese" is also called "Kraft Singles" but apparently just a marketing decision. And according to wikipedia it's the single most popular grocery item in our country, and of the 7 million boxes sold worldwide per year, Canadians consume 1.7 million of them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-call-this-1/page/2#post-1191993 Sat, 02 Nov 2013 02:27:34 +0000 Boogs 1191993@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mac n cheese!
