1:06:18 It's really it's gotten out of control you you are You are the hashtag trender. I mean, you have started such an incredible trend in the universe I mean, I don't know what's going on and some will attribute this to the first lady I'm saying is John C Dvorak This mac-and-cheese thing is off the hook now. I mean, I don't know what it is But now I'm seeing this everywhere I mean literally everywhere. I think we're just starting to notice everybody deserves their mac and cheese so um, i see on the white house because the first lady's out promoting her healthy recipes in her you know let's eat healthy let's move and uh something like oh i might as well check this out healthy recipes from the white house to you
1:07:05 Hi, welcome to the White House. Encouraged blah-blah-blah great healthier schools. Okay Please enjoy the enclosed recipes from the White House kitchen congratulations again So number one the number one recipe broccoli soup and then number two Cauliflower mac and cheese it's like okay alright then I've gotten into the habit of listening to our national treasure NPR to pick sorry yeah, well I pick up on good story ideas And I hear this all right so you brought us some Suggestions because we wanted to expand our menu of office cooking You know I was thinking about smug thing the mug gauntlet was laid down in front of me and so I picked it Up and decided to do a mac and cheese Mac and cheese in the mug It's out of control
1:07:57 I just see mac and cheese everywhere. People are sending me, you know, restaurant menus... The only thing i haven't seen is a mac and cheese food truck! I mean we're still on- Oh no there's apparently there's a guy well I got it from someone No! Yeah, I sent a couple of them they were back east Someone's already beat us to it with the mac and cheese food truck? yeah yeah I looked into it It's like you can buy a turnkey operation Uh, here on South Congress trailer everything the kitchen's $40,000. Yeah but that's not the van that-that's a trailer where you haul around at barbecue or something No no it gives you got to spot everything. No no we have food trucks here are stationary they don't move around the ones that we have on South Congress
1:08:39 We have a like, a parking lot with it's called... And they just stay there forever? Yes. We got one guy who built the container that we have a couple of those little parks in San Francisco There is one over by the Costco of all places and they have a variety I got 1 let me think 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 or 10 Of these trucks and they're all different none of them are the same They're you know Indian and barbecue Chinese and whatever. And those stay, and I think there's deaths happened here and there but generally speaking most of these trucks you see them going across the bridge early in the morning and then they have a route they don't always stop at exact same place that will go in one neighborhood for a week and then it'll go to another area and then another and be floating around making decent money They're packed! Well this is what I'm saying we could make super money with this
1:09:33 Anyway, just I'll wind up our segment. As I see actually there's a Mac and Cheese truck album art that was submitted. I guess we missed that one It's pretty cool. Mac and cheese, $7. Bacon... Add bacon, one dollar. Add spam two dollars. Add lobster! Mac and cheese on lobster? Well that'd actually be pretty good. That would be fantastic! That's a $12 item right there. And I remind people who don't listen to the show all the time, that mac and cheese is a depression era invention. Yeah it... When people were starving to death so they used cheap cheese and cheap macaroni which didn't cost anything and they melt them together and that would be their dinner and as we pointed out when the people shot all of the mac and cheese at the store most of it says Mac & Cheese Dinner It's like a dinner
1:10:34 It's a dinner. Nobody finds this weird I do and then i find it very strange Now, I got some notes from people that say you know hey man you know this is actually mom when moms who make mac and cheese for their kids are telling their kids they love them because they're not taking them to McDonald's or Burger King I guess there's something to it I mean that it is a step up But it's... I agree with that. It is, but it's mac and cheese if the mom liked the kid that much well how about making them like a you know substantial meal or something really you know some stir-fry or make him a hamburger at home? I mean what just... I don't want to take the kids to McDonalds! Is that too fat to get out of the house?! Make them some Mac & Cheese Madge!! They like the mac and cheese their kids!!! All kids love mac and cheese You know hot dog is probably better for ya
