She said, 'you do know that is just a tv show, right'? So I said, 'Well, why do I still make mine this way?' My mother said, well you are a little different. What did they know about the future of the traditional macaroni and cheese? How had I missed the fact that my own mother had stopped doing it the right way? The youngest grandchildren are a set of twins that are 19 years old! This travesty of the mac and cheese has been going on for over 20 years right in my own family and I didn't notice? I told my mother that Paula Deen still makes her macaroni and cheese the right way. WHAT? She goes on to tell me that she stopped doing that when the grandchildren were little, because they liked it just as well made on the stove and served right from the pan. Does what? Nobody makes a sauce and bakes it in the oven and all of that she said. However, when I told her what was said, she said nobody does that anymore. So I replayed this conversation to my mother, because I knew I would get my idea that people still make macaroni and cheese the proper way reinforced.
