The top seal for a 2.05 oz microwavable tub of Kraft macaroni and cheese. A full 4 inches in diameter, it shows yellow macaroni pieces against a blue background. The words "must add water TO FILL LINE" appear in white print four times. So why am I so tempted NOT to add water to the fill line? And when I'm not tempted to do that, why am I instead tempted to add water all the way to the top? I guess I just don't appreciate being bossed around when it comes to MY macaroni. What I do with that macaroni in the privacy of my home is my business - isn't it? Or am I even now being spied upon by the macaroni police? Do they know that I actually bought this tub of macaroni to use as an emergency maraca and that adding ANY water would ruin the sound? Do they know that I might just toss the entire tub into a campfire that I started using matches from a matchbook with that famous "CLOSE COVER BEFORE STRIKING" command that I've always ignored? But enough for now - I have an appointment to NOT keep my arms and head inside the ride at all times. Bye!
